How to Write an Effective Product Review (With a Free Template)

Be prepared to spend a few hours on this.

#1. Write a product review of at least 1,500 words about a product or service you are personally using.

#2. Choose the product or service to write about. It should be something that you really enjoy using and that your readers would like.

#3. What is your audience most interested in? You need to keep this in mind because you are writing a great product review for them.

#4. Your review must be objective and unbiased. Look for all the positives and negatives of the product or service. Be honest; your personal reputation is on the line.

#5. You simply cannot write a credible review without using the product or service yourself. Use it, and you can answer these questions in your review.

  • What does the product do?
  • How is this particular product different from similar products?
  • Is it easy or difficult to use this product?
  • Is it worth investing in this product?
  • What is wrong, or is something missing from the product?
  • Who should be using this product?
  • Where can you buy this product?
  • How much does it cost?
  • Is there a product guarantee?

#6. It is very important to take notes as you are using it. You cannot remember everything later, when you are writing your review. As a bonus, your notes will make the writing process a lot quicker.

#7. Always write your product review from scratch. This ensures it is 100% unique and will show up in the search results. You can use the product's photos, but avoid using any ready-made marketing material.

#8. List the pros and cons of the product. Even if you are earning an affiliate commission for selling this product, your review will be much more credible if you also list the cons. No product has only positive sides.

#9. Think about including technical information in your review. It is not required, but it may be beneficial to the readers.

#10. Provide some examples of when and how to use the product. For example, write about a few different scenarios in which it could be used. Write about your personal experience with it and the results you obtained.

#11: Let people know if you get a commission from selling this product if you are an affiliate.

Writing a great product review is simple when you follow these steps.

#1. Introduce the product and write something useful and interesting about it.

#2. Make a list of the key product features.

#3. List the benefits of using the product.

#4. If relevant, include author case studies and information about the author.

#5. In your review, be sure to discuss the pros and cons—the benefits and disadvantages—of using the product.

#6. Who would benefit from using this particular product or service?

#7. Include information about where to purchase the product and how much it costs. Are there any discounts?

Google and other search engines tend to rank longer, 2,000+ word articles higher. So, it is a good idea to write a long review.

Another useful tip is to do keyword research before you start writing; this will also help you get ranked better and generate more traffic and sales. WordTracker.com is one of the best free keyword tools at the moment.

Conclusion:

Writing in-depth, honest, and unbiased product reviews takes time because you need to first purchase the product, use it, do research, and then finally write. It is important to always put your readers' interests ahead of your own, because this will help build your reputation as someone your readers can trust. Trust turns into income for you over time.
