Title: Website-review.info - would like feedback from you before launching
Post by: monsterer on May 03, 2014, 07:56:15 PM
Hi guys,

I'm developing a new user-generated review site, http://website-review.info which aims to be the trip-advisor of website reviews.

USPs:

* Zero friction, no registration required
* User defined ratings, so you get to rate what you like about a site
* Browse all positive, all negative or even all indifferent (both good and bad points) reviews for a given website
* No affiliate links
* Upvote reviews you find valuable

The general idea isn't new, but I aim to make this the easiest, quickest way to find reliable information about the quality of a site. I felt bitcoin is a space where something like this would be extremely valuable, so I built this.

I'd love to hear why it wont work, is a terrible idea or has fundamental implementation flaws :)

http://website-review.info

Cheers, Paul.

Aside from the design (which is boring and too similar to a lot of other websites), this is a great site. The implementation has been well thought out and the UI is pretty good. The only improvement I can suggest is a little longer explanation on the "add review" page. Explain that the stars are awarded depending on the number of positive vs negative points, and that none of the fields are optional.

Might be worth implementing some kind of defence/security methods to avoid one person to register multiple times and post reviews from multiple accounts.  (Cookies, PC, IP tracking etc)
Also if budget allows - hire a few content writers who can write quality reviews about most popular bitcoin sites. This should bring more users from Google search and also more trust from your website reviews.

Good Luck!

Thanks for the feedback - I'll see what I can do to make the star rating process more obvious :)

One more clone design! it's boring and similar to thousands other websites. our community needs good web-designers

It's function over form at the moment :)
