SoftwareJudge

If you like using software and reviewing, then this is definately for you. SoftwareJudge claims to pay anything from $1 - $50 (50p - £25) per accepted review. That's quite a good rate, that is if you get anywhere near the higher price range. I have written two reviews, both have been accepted but I was paid just $1 each (50p), this wasn't great. When I contacted them to ask what they wanted from a $50 review, they said that it wasn't my review that was the problem, but that they were on a budget for April.

You can only review software on their website, but there is quite a few titles available. All software has an evaluation version to download and test, that is the beauty of reviewing software, it's free, to write a proper review on a phone or TV you have to buy the product.

SoftwareJudge is about 2 years old, so you can trust it although you have to reach $200 (£100) in order to withdraw money from your account (you need to be a member of Western Union), although you can request a piece of software, a game or an ebook from the site, but you can only have it in downloadable format.

The people behind SoftwareJudge seem to be very friendly, down to earth people who will be happy to assist you, but they make it clear, if you cannot write a good review don't write one.

Because, of the high rate, you can only write up to 3 reviews a day, I doubt this would ever happen, but that means $150 (£75) for a couple of hours (max.) work. They want "tell-it-like-it-is, no marketing BS, straight talking software reviews", they don't want you to lie and say the software is good if it isn't.

Overall, I think this service could be great, I get the impression they want experienced reviewers so if you keep writing for them, I'm sure if your good enough you'll start making the money.
