    Well done everyone on the Crowned reviews. Maybe you can give us non-crownies some tips?

    @FOXGLOVE/Moleygoldpaws- I just added you on Dooyoo - I'm XanderSi.

    @spiritwood - About the newbies not taking pointers, what do you mean out of interest?

    can't speak for spiritwood but often people sign up for dooyoo, plunge straight in, don't read any reviews and then ignore constructive criticism - eg try make your reviews premium quality with ok spelling and only review stuff you own -

    Generally such new members end up disappointed, as do the plagiarisers which plague the site every now and then (normally when the ebook on "how to earn big on dooyoo" is doing the rounds) - before dooyoo had a 5 a day review limit for new members at times it could be awful with 70+ copied reviews from a member in a day.

    Most people are pretty poor at reviewing when they start, we all are I think ....

    Well on the way to my next bank transfer :) Which is useful as I'm not working at the moment...!

    Mind you, I always seem to get distracted online these days, not sure why really. Just lacking motivation I guess. Despite having a list of over 200 products I can review at my disposal!

    I had a much bigger list (mainly products that I regularly use rather than one off products as obviously my knowledge would be gone by the time I got round to reviewing it). But I changed laptops (to a new one I will likely review some time) and couldn't be bothered to sort through them all! Haha!

    Well done to dundan on the crown too!

    Just tried to register and got the following message when I clicked on the e-mailed link dooyoo sent: 'The requested web page has been blocked. Cisco Security has identified Malware on the requested page'. I'm on a personal computer, not a super-selective office one...

    Wow. Very unusual. Was it definitely Dooyoo.co.uk?

    I've not written much for the last couple of days due to the headcold from hell kicking in. I'm up to dooyoo tennis (return rating) but I need my head to de-fuzz to write.

    Re writing, I think the key is to read other people's reviews; see what gets covered and then write enough to find your own style, which all the really good ones have.

    Yes. Never had that sort of message before, so won't be trying it again!

    I disappeared from MSE for a bit, hi newbies, I have the same name on DY as I do here (miwa) if you want to say hi. Going to answer individual posts now... may be gone some time...
