Comments on: WP Review Site 2.0 Review http://www.paulymath.com/2008/09/27/wp-review-site-20-review/ Make Money. Do What You Love. Feel Great.

Hi Elijah, if you found DG Review Site, SB Review Site, ReviewPress or Ratings Dominator... guess what, they're all my code as well. I released the first version of this plugin for free in 2007, and these other plugins took that open source code, modified it to do something a little different, and released it again as the license required. Problem is none of them kept them up to date. SB Review, for example, never passed "0.9 beta" released in 2007. They're made for WordPress 1.x not 2.5+ which is way different, have never fixed some of the old bugs (like ratings being totally ruined by spam comments), and are difficult to install since they usually require editing your theme by hand. WPRS 2.0 has more features, is tested against every new release of WordPress with free lifetime updates, and integrates with any theme (including the two it comes with) without editing the theme code at all. I only released the second version last month, and already there are over 250 customers with some amazing sites, and they've already been sent their first of many free updates adding new features. Award Winning Hosts, the demo site I set up for the plugin, made over $1000 this month... yeah, just a demo site, which I don't buy any paid advertising for. The user reviews there are all real (I delete any comments people leave just to test the plugin) and they convert the affiliate links to the web hosts like crazy. Thanks for reviewing my plugin, I’m glad you like it!

I only skimmed the surface in my review. The plugin is really good for affiliate sites for sure, as Google loves that kind of content. The more user reviews you have, the more Google is going to love you, which means a higher quality score with AdWords if you plan on using that. @Elijah: You should go through their site and look at their documentation to see what kind of functionality it has.

The plug in that I use is free, but it's clear that this paid plug in has some more functionality.
