ProductWiki

Experience: 3 Years (2008 – 2011)

Position: Contributing Editor

I wrote unbiased product reviews on various products ranging all the way from consumer electronics to mini appliances.

The typical review involved describing each product in greater detail, and outlining key features that made it stand out from similar products.

The actual reviews for each product were completed by the community (wiki style), so my position was more about identifying each product. At first glance, it may seem like the only reviews I offered were those in the comments, but I actually wrote hundreds of product descriptions on the site. They are not tied to any particular account.

The site has since been sold by its original creators and no longer uses the same review and publication process.

Experience: 5 Months (2012 – 2013)

Payment strictly relied on traffic, but since the site was new this meant pay was almost nonexistent. This was not ideal, so I did not remain long.
