How do I review on Twitter?
You need to tell us about your Twitter account. Click on your username in the top right of the screen, then click on "settings" and go to "My review sources". There you can add Twitter as a Source. The RSS feed address that you need to enter is the one on the RSS link at the bottom of your personal Twitter page at http://twitter.com/your_user_name. Make sure not to add the "with friends" feed!
Once you've set up the source, you can review on Twitter in a few different ways.
Structured Reviews
This is the original method we supported. The main advantage is that your review goes live on LouderVoice within an hour with no manual intervention. The disadvantage is that you have to remember the format. That format is as follows:
review rating1-5 ItemName: Opinion
So for example:
Freeform Reviews
These are even easier to do. Just start your tweet with "RE" and then write your opinion of a product or service. Try to identify the item clearly and include a score somewhere.
The main advantage of this method is that you don't have to remember any structure. The disadvantage is that they go into a queue and are human moderated to pick out the item name and score. This can mean a long delay before the review goes live on LouderVoice
So for example:
Hashtags
If you are familiar with hashtags on Twitter then we support the collection of those too and use them as navigation tags on LouderVoice
Protected Updates
If you have your Twittter updates protected then just make sure to pick "Twitter (Protected)" in the list of review sources when you are setting yourself up here.
