They way to make REAL money on RateItAll is to attract search engine traffic to your Weblist. The way you do that is by creating what search engines like Google would consider to be good resources on a given subject. A hugely important factor in convincing search engines that the Weblist that you set up is worth sending traffic to, is to write quality, original descriptions for each of the items in your Weblist. Original content is key - if a search engine looks at a page that you created about a Vancouver, for example, it's going to check to see how much original content the page offers. If there is no item description, you have no chance of attracting search engine traffic. The other thing is that items with descriptions are much more effective at attracting reviews than items without descriptions. So it becomes a virtuous circle... you write a description, people add reviews, and then suddenly, you have a world class resource on a given subject - and the search engines send you traffic, earning you cash. Oh yeah - writing item descriptions tells Google AdSense what type of ads to show on your pages!
