Hey-ho, porn fans! I thought I'd tell you how I go about doing porn reviews for AdultReviews.net. When I receive an assignment, I briefly look at the tour page, and then I head inside. I know some reviewers may study the tour at first, but I like to save it for last. That way, after I've been inside the members' area, I can say for sure whether the tour promises were upheld or not.
I quickly check out how easy the navigation is. I think anyone who has read more than a couple of my reviews knows I love simple navigation - lol! I always mention it in my first or second sentence. I don't think anyone should have to spend much time figuring out how to view all the content within the paysite.
Next I check out the quality of the content. Notice I said quality of the content. We're all turned on by different things, so a reviewer might be evaluating a porn site that may not be something that turns him or her on. However, as a porn reviewer, you need to overlook such things. It's all subjective anyway, but what is not subjective is the quality. Are the pictures clear and crisp? Does the porn site offer a slide show option or zip download for all its photos? What about the videos? Do they buffer or download quickly? Are they offered in more than one format? This is important because some people are still on dialup, while others have new fangled computers with super duper fast connection speeds. Is the screen a nice viewing size, without compromising the clearness of the video? Or is the movie only clear when it plays in a tiny screen?
I also check to see if the niche inside is what's promised on the tour. For example, if the paysite claims it's a blowjob site, yet most of the content is handjobs, then that's not going to get a good rating from me. The handjob content could be great quality, but the tour is doing false advertising if it doesn't accurately reflect what's inside.
So, as you can see, a porn reviewer's personal taste doesn't come into play. We evaluate based upon tour promises, content quality, and ease of use. We pass what we find on to you, dear porn fan, so you can make a more informed choice when it comes to your porn site purchases. Yep, it's a dirty job, but somebody's gotta do it!
