My Review Price Just Went Up

written by John Chow on March 22, 2007

Make Money!

Those with a sharp eye may have noticed the price on the ReviewMe logo at the right sidebar now displays $500. With my entry into the Technorati Top 100, my review price has now double.

I bet you’re wondering how many reviews I’ll get at $500. I had the same question when ReviewMe bump my price to $250, from $100. It seems history has repeated itself. Just as I asked, “Who’s going to pay $500.00 for me to do a review?” I logged into my ReviewMe control panel and see two new review requests.

The rich get richer. :twisted:

Hopefully, you’d rub off some of that money mojo on us all. John, you are officially my ambassador of Kwan! :cool:

So sad that you review price went up. Now I am far from getting a review from the great John Chow. But I am hoping their are other ways for me to earn the relationship with John. They should let you control the price, because who is to say that the price they give you is at the best price looking back to supply and demand principals.

Just noticed John has lowered the review price to $300. Did the review requests stop coming in at $500?

Geez! I envy you! :evil:
But congratulations anyway :D

I wish I was just added to ReviewMe lol

It's going to be crazy to see John's April review me money.

The earnings from his blog are only going to go up.

John Is the blog getting more money than the techzone? I have never actually seen you posting your revenue from there.

Also dont you feel guilty getting Micheal to do all the review Me's?

More money than TechZone?

The man wakes up at noon every day!

That must be a phenominal feeling to see a blog debut in the Technorati 100?

Do you remember the very moment you fist saw it there? What was your intitial reaction????

You are def. cashing in with ReviewMe!!!

John, you'll become evil millionare soon. Congrat :mrgreen: !

How high do the ReviewMe rates go up to anyway?

Just in case anyone wonders what happens when you get a ReviewMe from John Chow, I've posted some of my stats here:

I guess you will only get full 5 stars on Alexa when you reach the top 1000. Wow.. It just seems that John is getting further and further away from the common crowd. Oh gosh. :D

Geez, $500 for a review sounds pretty good to me. Start sharing with your readers, John. Start with me first, okthxbye. :twisted:

Okay I just noticed my price just jumped to $100!

$2500 for ShoeMoney. Wow. How many visitors does he get in a day? My site is listed for way less and we're pushing over 200,000 visits from 90,000 unique IPs in A DAY.

He set the price himself. You can set yours really high too if you want.

Does Mac Update even have a place to post reviews?

Hmm, based on the amount of traffic and reputation that you have here, advertisers wont hesitate to be featured here for that amount of money ;)
It's a real deal! :twisted:

Depends on what you are selling. Here are some stats from a ReviewMe from John Chow My Stats

Do they still have 50% off promotion? If so, $250 after discount is seems affordable.

To me $500 isn't affordable let alone $250 :)

I'll just have to figure out a better way to blog or get John to do a review without paying him ;)

Seriously! I'm waiting on the 75% off sale. :razz:

I got it at $125. I'm sure it will work well for some people--especially those selling products to "make money online". I didn't get as much traffic as I was expecting from it.

Checkout the stats and my analysis here:

By the way I was pleased with John's review. He did a great job, you just have to choose the sites you get reviewed on very, very carefully.

I thought $250 was the maximum!! hahaha

Well keep being evil John! Thats awesome news, one thing I wondered is there any $1000 review me prices out there?

$2500 is just for attention! See we are talking about it..

Why only 4 Alexa stars? What Alexa ranking do you need to have to get 5 stars???

Geee, $2,500?? I can't imagine it being worthwhile, regardless of how large the site. I can see $500 for a site that is relevant to your readers. Not worth it for me tho, sorry LOL.

Nice John. I'll pay $500 without even blinking the next time I buy a review from you. Then again, if I'm sneaky I could just slide a link to one of our products into my next guest post - but I'm not that evil :lol:

Congratulations! And yes, we hate you and love you at the same time. Lol!

this is good for us (the readers) for two reasons:

1. We don't get junk/spammy/affiliate reviews as everyday individuals don't have that kind of cash. Last month, the reviewme's were getting ridiculous on this blog.

2. The reviews we do get will be top notch as John will feel under even more pressure to deliver on the inflated price tag.

The real question is did you notice or did your readers notice first?
Congratulations!

You made a great job and now this is the results: mooooney !

Does ReviewME still make 50% of the price advertisers pay? If that's still the way they work, I honestly don't see why advertisers do not contact you directly, potentially saving 500$.

$500 a review! Wow, that's amazing. :shock:

Well done John! I guess that knocks out a lot of people with new blogs or sites like me from affording a blog review now. $500 sheesh! Good work though :)

Ya, I dont like u anymore :evil:

$500 is the highest pre-set rate that they have, but you have the ability to adjust your own rate to whatever you want.

Josh, I believe 500 is the highest.

I wonder if this is the highest rate they have. Anyone seen any reviews for a higher price?

That's just ridiculous.

I think you can set your own price..

I dont think I have read a review me from him though yet.
