    Hi there, you need 20,000 miles to redeem at amazon, you almost have 16,000. You can write about 8 reviews, I have written 7 reviews and am slightly short of 5,000 miles.

    just another quick question, how many reviews do you read and rate in one day?

    Probably only about 10, should do more then I might get people returning rates which would add to my miles. But I do other survey sites etc, so I don't have enough time to spare.

    My rating pattern varies according to my mood and time available. I probably rate anywhere between 20-50 odd dependent on what I'm doing.

    If you are going to have to produce a large number of reviews in a short space of time (so you don't lose your pending miles), I'd recommend rating others before you submit reviews and in between submissions otherwise each individual review probably won't got many reads.

    I tend to go back to a review of mine written 3 or 4 reviews back and 'return rate' people from that as well as going through the recent reviews list. You will soon see that many of the recent writers aren't the sort to recriprocate rates!

    Some people don't seem to understand that if you rate a lot of reviews and therefore have more people rate your reviews you will make more money than if you just churn out reviews. Each review that I post makes around £1.50, more if it gets crowned. So each review that I write is worth three times as much as a review that doesn't get any ratings.

    To answer an earlier question, I rate as many reviews as I can in one day. Usually around fifty.

    I agree with Brooke. I usually spend more time reading and rating than I do writing reviews, especially as I like to leave comments. In the end this earns you more miles than churning out reviews, as people return the favour and comments - and it's more fun.

    I just joined on Sunday - I've done 3 reviews, received 35 ratings (two of my reviews were done this lunchtime, so thats not bad, thanks all!), and reviewed 26 other reviews. Must do better on the last one.

    I saw yesterday that someone had been awarded a crown (a churner, but a decent writer) and they'd never rated a single review! So it seems dooyoo isn't that bothered about the rating aspect?

    Lots of people put effort into Dooyoo writing half decent reviews and mutually rating other people. I think they find it annoying that some people have suddenly discovered Dooyoo and have flooded the site with lots of short reviews just to earn some quick cash. Then these newer members give the older members who put some effort into their reviews lower ratings. You can see how this is annoying.Why not just use the site properly?
