Topic: [ANN] Lina.Review | Community-Driven Review Platform | TGE Event 15th Jan - page 50. (Read 23690 times)

Sir based on my own understanding the lina review project is being dependent to the block chain because we all know the unique characteristic of the block chain itself.
It is a series of codes that is veru difficult to hack by other people and can easily be traced by the authorized person only so if the review of a certain individual is fake the lina project can trace it based on the code that is being pass.

In terms of the advertisers, the lina review will also become a moderators in giving reviews or feedbacks as regards to their product. Advertisements will become transparent enough for both comsumers and entrepreneurs. The reviews that will be given is based on the feedback of the consumers in purchasing a certain commodities.

The lina project's purpose towards with their clients is to provide honest and authentic reviews of the different companies whether it is positive or begative reviews for the consumers to have a guide in decision making on what would be the company that ther will avail in terms of their sevices.

Review websites exist, most of them have specialties, most of them are "trusted". They fulfill a"need" that is why it has become an industry. The industry have been made, it grew, along with it's growth the problems, and it seems that no one plans to solve them. This project was made to meet that need, to rise above the other review sites but it won't be successful unless they improve it to the best of their ability. They should improve the platform more. Get all the best parts of existing review sites and put them together. Develop it to be the best among them.

WANTED: HELPER

I guess I don't really like that sound, it sounds like something else. If I'm an expert, I'd want to be labeled as an expert. If I'm no expert but I regularly use some thing and I believe I'm good at it, I'm a regular user.

Has any of you tried the demo sites?

http://demo.lina.review/

http://demo2.lina.review/

Any ideas for improvement?

Based on the comments, "report a review" button would be nice.
Like bct and fb, there should be options like spam, or plagiarism.

For products, it would be nice if it's comprehensive or there is an overview, and very detailed details part instead. It's nice to input all the info about the product, but some users might want to just see the reviews, so, it might be better for an option to "view product details" and more on reviews part. For restaurants, I'd want the whole menu in it. Like, "how much should I exactly bring?" should be available. And about the prices, it should not just be stars but there should really be a price there. Should gather more ideas regarding the standards, too, it seems lacking.

The problem based on the underlined and according to the wp:


So here in LiNA, the "experts" would be the "helpers". (If they are really experts, their services would probably be expensive, no?)
Also:


Through LiNA, we are expecting transparency, we are expecting a change in the review industry as a whole, and that is through the implementation of blockchain. (They said intervene but they actually didn't yet enumerate sanctions in case the underlined happens, what should be done in case they found a case like that?)

I agree with you, I also have tons of questions for this project and hoping I will see the dev answering my questions.  I need some clarifications  for my investment as well.

Your thoughts on this guys.

Hope this helps.

Have you read the white paper guys? I think most concerns were address in LINA white paper.
Here are some lines quoted from the white paper.

1. Value of online product review

With the explosion of the Internet, product reviews have become an important factor in building brand image and business reputation. A negative review can seriously affect the reputation of the business. This has even created an industry known as “reputation management” with the primary functions of helping companies “concealing” bad reviews [1]. However, from the users’ perspective, this is not a good thing because it hinders them in accessing transparent and trustful reviews.

In the review industry, reviews of the experts play a decisive role. Expert reviews are usually written by reputable experts who have tried and tested products and services to find the best value for money. However, it is usually difficult for ordinary users to access these experts, while that should really be the main communication channel in the review industry.

2. Aspects of current review industry

2.1 Reliability of reviews and scores
While the importance of the review industry is undeniable, the most important part - the credibility of the score - is in question.

This happens because, in theory, the reviewers should be responsible for making the objective, unbiased and the most accurate reviews possible, but in reality there is currently no evaluation mechanism for the reviewers themselves, so there is no clear connection between the benefits and the quality of the reviews of experts. When the experts do not have the motivation and responsibility to do their job, it is predictable that the quality of expert review would be reduced or influenced by other factors.

Besides, the lack of a transparent communication mechanism between the websites’ offering review system and end users also creates a loophole that allows product or service providers to easily deal with the current rating system manager and thereby change review scores in their favor.

Consequentially, end users lose their trust in review results, while review experts do not have motivation to work. Therefore, manufacturers could not receive honest feedback to improve their products. It is a lose-lose-lose situation.

2.2 Difficulties in finding and comparing evaluation results
At present, there are many rating systems in different industries. These systems are quite dispersed resulting in difficulty for users to search reviews.

2.3 Lack of standard criteria for each subject

Therefore, it is necessary to build standard criteria for each subject in order to help business get the most accurate feedback from customer. Thanks to the assistance of a network of experts in many industries, Lina.review has introduced a set of criteria applied to more than 20 fields ranging from technological products, medical services or hotels, to movies and books. In addition to being able to get the most accurate feedback from users about the selected criteria, Lina.review has introduced the Lina Rating app (available on Google Play) so that users can “vote” for the criteria to be reviewed, currently for 6 subjects:
• Medical Service, Hospital
• Hotels
• Movie
• Restaurant
• Crypto Currency
• Smart Phone
The obtained results are fairly interesting, for example, for restaurants, the number of people voting for “Cleanliness” is greater than the number of people voted for “Food Quality”, and the number of people voting for “Ambience” and “Food safety” is nearly equal to “Food Quality”. This partly indicates that existing restaurant review criteria need to be updated.

3 Introducing Lina.review - community-driven review platform powered by Blockchain Technology
3.1 Solutions
By being implemented on Blockchain technology, Lina.review will address issues related to transparency and immutability of the score, as well as develop mechanisms to help users and experts earn profits based on system development and the quality of their reviews (via smart contract).

There are actually some research data's in between. You can download the white paper here:

What a great project surely these paid website wont have any chance,Lina will be massive this coming years because it will the first place that these consumers may wanted to visit for them to be sure that these products is worth to buy.

Where can i sign up for this? i havent heard that it has an ICO or it was ended already? i really want to be a helper so i can earn an extra bucks everymonth.

It has great market. It already stated it's competitors AND it's advantage over t's competitors. Also, the situations that it will solve. Switch to it because obviously, it's better.

That is the requirement if you want to apply as a helper. If approved, you will become a helper immediately and probably have income on the reviews you make, instead of becoming a user and making reviews and waiting to be promoted as a helper. Just like other review sites, anyone can be a user (as long as you provide valid address when signing up, not sure when valid address will be required).

Review is nothing but the description of the product given by the user experience of the product or service. Evaluation usually consists of two parts one of the description of the experience and qualifying the quality of the product or service and easily identified scale. Reviews and reviewers play an important role in demand for products and services. A large company uses marketing techniques, even cooperation with the review system providers and it difficult for users to trust the results of product reviews.
Lina.review is the platform for reviewing on Blockchain which produces the best possible clear and create conditions for reviewers which can benefit by seeing the quality of the reviews. It will directly interact with the users and providers of products or services which cannot trust.  Negative review can seriously affect the business this will create negative reputation to their company.   People who want to do online shopping will read the reviews from the online and 67% of the people will read the online reviews of online shopping before they make online shopping. It is difficult for ordinary users to access these experts where as they should follow the communication channels in the review industry.

They call the helper mods as the "Helper Board", for hiring helpers, promoting users to helper, and demoting helpers to user. I do hope that other than that, they will also have a separate QA team for overall review quality. Having a QA team is normal for many companies, and since it's a review platform they should also employ CSAT system for their clients and users.

I knew many or some of the community believed that crypto N kafe will succeed. But it doesn't mean it will be happen, of course this will only be happen if after ico and all the plan or goals will be done. Though according to their whitepaper it has a good plan for the future.

Yes. According to the White paper the helpers are going to start as users then their reviews will be scrutinized and they are earning points in each review they make then later on they will be hired helpers. They are the regular review makers of Lina.

The moderator must have fallen into a deep sleep this time. I hope this project is not a drawing which has no reality. Goodluck to investors then.
