The Wall Street Journal recommends ThisNext to its readers who seek good shopping recommendations! Jessica Vascellaro’s “Shopping Around/Online” piece highlighted ThisNext as one of three sites where, “Shoppers brimming with advice on must-have clothes, home accessories and gadgets have new ways to earn small amounts of cash — if they can persuade others to buy what they’ve recommended.”
Of ThisNext, she says, “Earning options: Users who are already members of affiliate networks from retailers like Amazon.com and Gap.com can earn money by giving ThisNext their affiliate codes when they recommend products. The benefit of a ThisNext membership is that it often brings users recommendations more traffic, which can help them earn more cash. Comment: Featuring a wide array of unique products like a deer-shape wall mirror, the site is better organized for shoppers than for recommenders, who still have to register for the affiliate programs on their own.”
There we go with the deer-head stuff again. Who knew faux game trophies were so hot (well, besides you Nexters, of course)…
(To be fair, we’ll mention that the other two sites covered were MyPickList.com and uSuggest.com. Aren’t we good sports?)
