TRT Reviewers' Club


Today we are launching the TRT Reviewers' Club. Our goal with this is to encourage everyone to share their experience on products they've used and stores they've bought from.

TRT Comparison Shopping covers today over 4,000 products and we've already collected hundreds of reviews from members who have taken a moment to explain in a few sentences, what they liked and disliked about products they've used.

Members of the TRT Reviewer Club enjoy the following benefits:
  • Recognition by the community with the TRT Reviewer badge shining below their avatar
  • The opportunity to apply to become a Sr. Reviewer and thus be eligible to receive products from manufacturing companies that want their products tested and reviewed by TRT Sr. Reviewers.
  • Participation in the TRT Reviewer Of The Month contest
  • Participation in the TRT Reviewers Club Forum where we discuss reviewing guidelines and policies and other related topics.

It's easy to join: All TRT members with more than 100 posts and 3 months tenure at TRT are welcomed to the program. Upon the publication of your first 20 reviews you will be invited to the club and awarded the TRT Reviewer badge.

When writing a review, pls spend a few minutes citing a few things you liked and disliked about the product your are reviewing. Be generous in sharing what you know about the product. Everyone else here will benefit from it!

Writing reviews is easy... All you need to do is go to TRT Comparison Shopping and search for the product you'd like to review... Once you find it, click on the "Write a review" or "Add a review" and you'll be taken to a form to review the product... It should be pretty straight forward from there!

We are happy to grant the first TRT Reviewer badge to icebear for her many wonderful reviews! The badge is now showing up just above your avatar. Thanks icebear!

Thanks also to all those that have contributed reviews! Go write a few more and upon publication of your 20th review we will grant you the badge!

Thank you Kakalakasha!


Kakalakasha - Thanks for all the reviews you've been contributing!

We are happy to award you the TRT Reviewer badge which now appears above your avatar. Keep it up!

I am also happy to inform everybody that soon TRT Reviewers will be able to choose to receive products from vendors (like CurrentUSA, SeaChem and RedSea) for testing and reviewing. As I said earlier in this thread - we want TRT to become the leading source of information on products for saltwater aquarists - More details about this soon!

I guess this means I gotta hurry up and get back to reviewing products. I started and got sidetracked from it. A badge would be cool.
