Build Interaction: Add User Reviews

Posted by Christian Harris

It’s hard to believe I know, but your Web site’s community of users represents a wealth of knowledge. By letting your customers add their own reviews on your site you will quickly amass a valuable collection of user opinions about products that relate to your site. There are even products on the market that use your existing forum login system (if you have one) to keep your users from having to register twice.

One program that I’m playing with at the moment is called Five Star Review Script, an Amazon-style script that allows users to rank a product or service on a scale of 1-5 stars and make comments (reviews) related to the product for other users to read. E-mail notification allows the administrator to approve comments before adding them to the Web site.

Some other products to play with include Star Rating System Pro and ReviewPost PHP Pro.

Let me know how you get on!
