How can we boost reviews?
Just like the title says. How can we boost reviews? I'm not looking for good reviews or bad I just need reviews I've noticed that you only get an actual average once you have 5 reviews. I might be wrong but I think that's the amount you need in order to get the average.

You pay for each reviews, but you're not sure they will be good reviews.
It's not a bad idea but you must believe in your app/game.
probably more than 100
So this will be awesome is everybody helps. For me this is one the benefits of being in a community, the support that you can get from it. So you can count on me for this because it does not cost me anything to help in this way, but that is just me.
Also just want to let you know that there is no difference between a paid app review and a promo code review.
You can send me your promos at: lordtarantor@yahoo.com
I think the best way to do this is to just share promo codes with trusted members of GS if a much smaller group wanted to trade purchases of each others apps they could.
Even when someone does review they just played it for 25 seconds out of coutesy and reviewed. I would rather it go to someone who has time to play it and make a real decision. I have gotten tons of one stars and I respect everyone of them. I dont believe in the term "freetard" either. To me they are just kids who donwloaded a game and thought it sucked lol
I got your emails and i know for sure i left a review on your first game and ill have to double check to see if i got your second one reviewed yet. I review so many games for people its crazy.It was to the point I was having to set aside time (I don't have) everyday to keep up.
Yet when I used to ask for reviews i would get three or four. And at this point I am probably about done reviewing anything except a games I like and buy. I just have a hard time saying no. And i try to be helpful but it gets overwhelming.
You can check your account to see how many reviews you have written too. I have done over 500!! - And those are just butterbean's. (JK)
My point is let's just be realistic. If you have a good game it sells well and you get good reviews.
Developer (one of us) asks on the GS forum for the reviews. He offers three ways:
1. he sends free promo codes for everyone, and each person writes a HONESTLY review.
2. he sends a free promo code for everyone, and he recived other member free promo code. They write GOOD reviews for eachother.
3. he sends a free promo for everyone, and pays small fees for GOOD reviews (f.e. 5 USD per good review)
best review to code ratio
People have to be members and they get the boot if they dont review
Good or bad it is usually somewhat insightful too

What about an app that have 1000 reviews and one with 10?
Don't you think that as more reviews/downloads your app gets stays in Top?
So If you have the time to give some reviews send me an email at lordtarantor@yahoo.com so I can send you a promo code of my app, also feel free to send me your promos
I didn't want to say anything, but I can't hold myself back.
I don't understand, why people try to make some "let's help each other"-groups on every forum by 10 people, who then lose motivation after a couple of reviews.
There is iphoneapp-promocodes.com (also known as promodispenser.com), where your app will be reviewed by hundreds of people.
There are 1300 developers registered.
If you also download other apps and review them and use the site actively as a user, not just go there and try to spam the site with your app and then don't care, then you have the biggest "let's help eachother"-group of the world.
Review to get reviewed. And if you spread the word about it, you get reviewed even quicker.
People who hate me here and boycott the site, are welcomed to do so :-P
For all others: You can try how you want, your best shot is promodispenser.
Of course don't expect much if you have a crappy app.
To be honest, I don't want promo dispenser becoming a gamesalad junkyard.... anyways... try it if you think, your app is any good.
btw our app will be released this week (hopefully) and then we expect a tremendous increase in visits, new users and usage in general.
cheers
Even here. There are several threads here about this very same topic.
If people would also read the forum, not just spread their own, megaimportant stuff, they would find it.
That's why I didn't want to say anything. I just posted after I saw that there are twenty something replies again...
Down the page GS have a Contact us. You can apply for a moderator position there...
I don't want to be a moderator. Not here.
If you knew my history here, you would know, I will never ever become a moderator here :-P
None the less, they have sent me an invitation to become a sous chef, which I answered out of curiosity, but never received a reply. :-P
I just posted the above because I am somehow involved in it.
