The team’s stakeholders — and especially its founding members — must be publicly posted, with links to learn more about each. The possibility to go on their profiles on Linkedin and Github (for the professional profiles) is appreciable if it is essential to get a better idea of their experience. The Role of the Token in the Project. Will it be used as an intended use? Could the plan work? It is common for projects running ICOs to have no need to create a new token. The reputation is also an important factor! Projects that are unknown or considered far-fetched will not be accepted by all exchanges.
Before investing, make sure to verify the team members of the ICO. Make sure that you run a normal background check for them for the authenticity purpose. And please read their provided whitepaper. All of the important information of the ICO is in the whitepaper.

IM checking only 2 things: first is team , is there any russians or not, and some known persons . Second is traffic of their project if they know how to gain visitors and hype around their coin then im buying for short time.
I would add www.icoguide.com to the rating platforms, they have very realistic scores and platform itself is also good,.
if I personally always check the product, roadmap, whitepaper and team of the ICO, because I think it is the most important thing to determine whether the ICO will be successful.
To cut the chase, in short, we need to check everything and anything they have. But the main thing that needs to be checked are the dev team, the products and strategies, and its community. These are what I consider salient points in choosing which to invest.

The existing product note is important because we can see a lot of projects which did raise a lot of funds but after that their token price is dropping like boobs with age.
I agree on OPs list but i would like to add some more.
1) Idea explanation. It is very important that the project can explain their idea in simple way. If they cannot do it ,they are over complicating things which is one of the reasons why startups fail or they just dont care about the idea and project. KEEP IT Stupid simple.
2) Look for their attitude towards details and graphic design in their project webpage, telegram , bounty and ann thread. it does show that they care about their project.
3) Country. I dont want to induce nationalist discussion. But country / region matters. Economy and regulations differ in regions.
4) In some cases projects already have raised some momey in different way which could be a good indicator . For example IcoPass has managed to attract money from " Horizon 2020" which is not a easy thing to do. In most cases this one will be similar to " existing product" criteria .

So completed. Just let's start practicing the tips and tricks in investing in the crypto. However, does it work? Exactly, it may work on some people but some don't work. What we need to do is analyzing more about the ICO as stated on the post and other terms to be acknowledged. Additionally, be patient, wise, and also smart to decide which is best for you to pick.
I always check the website and any existing white papers to ensure whether the ICO has a clear goal or not. of it will certainly be able to take the conclusion whether it would be useful for the future or not. But even so, of course, it's also not entirely can be used as a benchmark. a lot of other things to be seen and analyzed as well.
This information is very valuable. Mostly, the investors will do these things. You can check them one by one to analyze which ICO is good.
I will always at least analyze the product, concept, token supply, transaction on the wallet, team that builds up, and many others. Just to complete the information.

We need to check before investing are the team involve in the project, we need to know who they are, check their profile, consider also the product involve, we really need to secured our investment for us not to lose our money.
It is very important to research the project team. Do they hide their real names, is it possible to find their profiles in social networks, what technical experience they have, are they strong in marketing, are there any experience in large projects?
I think these tips have represented the right ways to start investment in the crypto. They are important information that can be a consideration. however, all may have different perception. Additionally, we must also be ready of the results that we may get from the investment. The profits and risks must be considered carefully and wisely. Just do more research and take your best coins to invest.
The first thing i want to check before participate in ICO is the team profile, and the project itself.
Later i will check their social media and join them for updates. If i find these are good, then i will contribute.
