1) Take a look at a product page. Do you think the data is comprehensive enough, and well enough organised?

2) The Lists page shows the currently trending products across the site. We think it’s a great resource. Anything else you’d like to see there?

3) We’re keen to get users engaged and get them sumbmiting their own reviews, or sharing content on social media. We’re looking at improving sharing – any ideas?

One thought on “CollectedCritics – Building the Biggest Database of Reviews on the Web”

  1. 1) Take a look at a product page. Do you think the data is comprehensive enough, and well enough organised?

    The homepage, links and search engine was comprehensive enough, I was not confused at all as I browsed through you’re page but I also saw no reason to come. It felt like a normal search engine, the site offered no real reason to do my search here. As much as I liked the minimalist approach to the site I also felt it was too minimal, there was no ‘wow’ effect which made it seem forgettable.  

    As to answer you’re question; the page was organized well and everything seemed straight to the point.  
    2) The Lists page shows the currently trending products across the site. We think it’s a great resource. Anything else you’d like to see there?

    The lists page was very simple to understand, there was no confusion which is something that I’m always looking for. What I would like to see is a separation of categories for instance: what if I wanted to see a review that dealt with technicalities of the new product, or how a certain application worked? Or creative things that have been done by others? I think that the products trending should be in sections so that I may narrow down my search. 
    3) We’re keen to get users engaged and get them sumbmiting their own reviews, or sharing content on social media. We’re looking at improving sharing – any ideas?  

    First off I didn’t see anything indication that you wanted to have visitors of your site become reviewers for the site, so I was unaware of your intention. I was unaware that this content was going to be able to be shared on our own social media, I saw no connections there. I would make sure that somewhere in the page we are made to understand that this is a collection of reviews that can grow with my input. I would also mention that I can add my review on my Facebook or Twitter page as to share with my friends.
