Software Judge is a site that pays you for reviewing different types of software. They will pay you $50 for each review, with the ability to cash out at $200 with Western Union being the sites current method of payment, or you have the option to purchase software titles from their site as long as you have at least $20 in your account.
This site has some strict expectations and guidelines, heres an excerpt from the site where I feel they are very straight forward and say it best:
"If you have strong opinions about software, whether positive or negative, and want to get paid for your reviews, you are in the right place. We pay up to 50 dollars for tell-it-like-it-is, no marketing BS, straight talking software reviews.
HOWEVER, it can't be just ANY review for ANY software. We only accept HONEST reviews for software LISTED at SOFTWAREJUDGE.COM (the list isn't huge, but you can pick what you like).
Obviously, your review has to be damn good for us to pay you fifty bucks and not every reviewer is going to get that much for a single review. However, you get paid at least a buck for any review published here. Ten reviews – ten bucks. Twenty reviews – twenty bucks. You do the math. The better your work, the more money you get for writing fewer reviews.
Here are simple rules.
First. Submit only original reviews that you wrote personally. If we find out that there is a sentence that’s not yours (it’s very easy to find that out with Google), you won’t get paid. Even if you previously submitted top notch reviews that we really liked. We always run reviews through web search before paying you or buying software you requested.
Second. Don’t submit more than three reviews in one day. Better yet, submit one review and see if it gets published or not. If it does not get published, it’s not good enough and we don’t want to spend several hours a day reading crappy reviews. Not everybody is good at this. But you have to be good to get published. Also, don’t bother us if your English is very bad. It’s fine if you make some mistakes (we all do), but a person who only had two years of English classes in high-school or college isn’t someone who is qualified for this job.
Third. Besides freebies, like free reg keys and free games that we give away to best contributors, there are two ways you get paid. If you have $200 in your account, contact us via the form with the complete personal information necessary for us to send you the money. Right now the default method is Western Union, because money can be sent anywhere in the world in 15 minutes. Again, the minimum amount is $200 (two hundred dollars) because we don’t want to spend all our time in the bank. If you have at least $20 in your account, you can request any software, game or an e-book to be purchased. You pick any product you want that costs as much money as is currently available in your account (or less) BUT it has to be a DOWNLOADABLE. We don’t want to deal with shipping costs (we’ve got a few reviewers who live in Australia) or spend time finding out why your package never arrived. In this day and age, you can pretty much buy any software in downloadable form, just send us the link and we’ll get it for you. We won’t buy anything off eBay for the same reason – we don’t want to deal with merchants we can’t trust.
Finally. Don’t be stupid. Don’t review software that you never tried. Don’t say software is good, if it’s bad. Don’t try to write only positive reviews. And never, never do anything that’ll piss us off.
