Here are some broad guidelines and recommendations for writing a product review for Glass Community:
- Always be objective and honest and approach your product review with professionalism.
- Professionalism doesn't have to mean boring though! Writing in a conversational style will help readers relate to you and the product you are reviewing...rather than wandering off to do something else.
- It goes without saying that we expect you have actually used the product!
- Be as detailed as you like – the more information you impart, the better chance you have of the community tipping you for your review.
- It always helps to include photos of the product, and your 'before' and 'after' shots. This will help readers visualise your process. If you have any problems uploading images when you submit your article, just email them to: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it and tell us the name of the product review you wrote. We'll add them to the article for you.
- If you are stuck, have a look at the existing product reviews on this website.
- Remember to spell check and grammar check your work before submitting it.
- You can write the review any way you like, however it is good practice to include:
- The name of the item i.e. what is the name it sells under in shops
- An overview of what the item is and what it does
- What prompted you to buy it
- How easy or hard it was to use (pros/cons)
- What the price was and where you bought it from
- How it was packaged and whether the packaging was appropriate
- How easy were the instructions to follow
- How you used the product and any tips you have as a result of your tests/use
- Would you recommend the product and for what purpose i.e. is it good for some things but not others
