Product owners pay a handsome amount for writing great reviews. It could be in terms of kind or cash. Drawback in this model is it resulting in a biased review. On the other hand, people want to read unbiased and fair reviews to get a right kind of opinion. Because, on the basis of what people read, they decide to buy or leave the product. Good companies give full liberty to the review writer to post his or her fair views about the product. But, if the product is bad, a reviewer should not compromise by writing what is not true. In that case, a good reviewer will either try to convince the company to allow him to write fair views or else he/she should refuse/return the offer.

A good review will always focus on both aspects of a product - pros and cons. Because a review reader is never interested in a fake or false opinion from a good reviewer.
Here are a few of the top skills a good review writer must possess:
- Consistency: Consistency in reviewing various products will keep your readers coming back to you regularly. It will also help in a regular and organic growth of your readers. So what you get in return of consistency is good growth in number of views of your reviews and readers at the same time.
- Passion: A passionate reviewer and writer builds a unique style and that becomes the USP of the review writer. So by passionate I mean to say be unique, be stylish, and be truthful.
- Be End-User: Never experience a product solely as a reviewer. Be in the shoe of an end-user and then experience it. That will create a very genuine and fair review.
- Convincing: Whatever you write needs to be convincing. Just check if it you are convinced, only then it will convince others.
- Pros and Cons: Highlight both sides of the product in your review. Writing only good is a straight indication of a foul review if it is too sugar-coated and polished.
- Be expressive: Express yourself as much as possible in the best possible manner.
