I mentioned SharedReviews last year when they were in beta.
It’s run by a couple of guys I know, so I’m really delighted to see how well they’ve been doing.
A lot of companies send out emails telling clients and users about new features and cool stuff they’re offering.
It’s rare to get a plain and honest email which goes into detail about the company’s development.
It’s so rare, that it’s like a breath of fresh air.
The guys have been doing stellar work building up the number of users AND building up their revenue streams. I’m absolutely delighted for them both (Frank and Peter):
Growth of the site has been stellar the last couple of months, resulting in increases in unique visitors and pageviews by 50% month over month. In fact we've gone from 8,000 unique visitors in February to a projected 50,000 unique visitors and 1.6 million pageviews this month. Congratulations on helping us grow this fast! What we need is to ensure the SharedReviews word is spread in as many places as possible, form your blogs to your MySpace and Facebook accounts, make sure your reviews and SR in general are being marketed everywhere you go. This will result in more traffic and revenue for the community, and more votes for your reviews!
Of course now I’m feeling guilty, as I haven’t been that active on there !

Just as well they’re your mates.
Otherwise you’d probably categorise them as ‘spamming scum’.

I only categorise people and companies as spamming scum when they send unsolicited bulk email.
