How To Verify The Real Popularity of Any Computer Optimization Software In 15 Minutes or Less?
Overview - This article describes a fast method that anyone can use to independently assess the popularity of any computer optimization software (e.g. Registry fix software, registry cleaner software, error fixing software etc..). It also uses the real life example of a website dedicated to help users fix computer errors, which has already adopted this method for screening relevant software for further review.
Readers should understand that the method referred to in this article is new and imperfect, yet presents a distinct advantage over most other alternatives.
The problem - Never has the choice of computer optimization programs been so large, yet most computer users do not tend to rely on impartial information to verify the popularity of computer optimization software before buying their preferred solution. This is a challenge as computer optimization software which are not popular may be either new, or unproven or both, are therefore riskier.
The options - Most users still rely on forums. However the problem with this method is that forums only provide anecdotal evidence (at best) of the popularity of any software, another downside is the risk that forum participants are just promoting their own products instead of sharing their independent opinion.
Another method is to visit software vendors’ sites. The trouble is that software vendors are obviously partial to their products, and this is the downside of using this method.
Another method is to rely on an independent site, which compares different computer optimization software in the same family, for instance Anti-Virus software, Registry Cleaning Software, Anti Adware/ Spyware software etc…. The problem with this method is that 99% of these sites go straight into the details of the technical features, and that they do not give an independent perspective of the popularity of the products they are comparing, as they lack the data to do so.
So how can anyone determine the real popularity of any computer optimization program independently? (click on registry fix software example)
15 Minutes Method - A superior method is to look at the data provided by digital market places such as Clickbank for example, which is the largest of them all. There as several digital market place which sell many of the most popular computer optimization software and they give these software an indicator of popularity often called Gravity. Put simply, this indicator is linked to the number of sales transactions made for a particular software over a period of time. Clickbank compute and compare the Gravity score of any digital product independently from any software vendor. Gravity is therefore a good independent measure of popularity. Anyone can independently verify the real popularity of any computer optimization software visiting Clickbank or another digital marketplace. Eventhough this method also has its own limitation (some Computer Optimization Software may not be sold through Clickbank), the fact remains that it is one of the most accessible method of independent review today.
Example - Some software review sites have adopted this method and are now referring to the Clickbank popularity of the digital products that they are also reviewing independently (Click on fix registry errors for a live example).
