Can you really earn $50 with Reviewstream.com

by Cathy Pelekais

Created on: May 07, 2008

I have earned over $300.00 for very short reviews on Reviewstream.com in just seven months. Reviewstream.com allows the reviewer to review anything, and I mean absolutely anything at all. They do have some guidelines that are necessary to be followed in order to be published. As I stated you can review anything at all, old movies, a can of dog food, the movie you went to see, a restaurant, an insurance company, a can of peas, a shop that you go to, a supermarket, albums, songs, entertainers, political figures, the bar you went to last night, a recipe that you like just assure that you do not copy from anywhere on the Internet the exact same recipe, they won't accept it, it has to be personalized, a meal you ate, the place you work for, the apartment building you may live in, a theater, a book store, anything at all as long as you don't copy off of the label, you don't copy off of someone else's work and you don't publish the exact same review somewhere else.

You need to write approximately 150-200 words, I have made all of mine at least 200 words, just by using word count to assure that there is enough text. It is not hard at all, you can write about anything you like. Reviewstream.com will let you know if the article is too short, if the page comes up and states that your article was too short, just hit the back key and type a few more lines in there. Not hard at all. They are picky so here are some hints.

1. Don't use vulgar language

2. Don't use all capital letters

3. Cannot copy from a label or other website

4. Cannot plagiarize anything they will find out and kick you off

5. Cannot publish the exact article anywhere else.

6. You need to establish a paypal account, use the same email address on the paypal that you will get your responses back from reviewstream. They do send you a confirmation each time that you are published with a running total of how much you have earned.

7. After you have registered, and you write your first article, there are three radio buttons towards the bottom of the screen, check on all three of them, agreeing to the minimum payout, sometimes they will give you $2.00, most of the time it is 40 cents, yet all those 40 cents adds up quickly, 125 small articles will pay you $50.00. If you have done everything correctly the screen will go to a second page where you will see a total of how much was credited to your account. You will also receive an email from reviewstream.com that informs you that you were published.

8. When you look at the
