Do you have what it takes to help your community as a website critic?
If you accept the notion that not all sites are created equal, you’ll likely have exactly what it takes to be a Noobing Reviewer.
All you need is your opinion…come on…go ahead, express it—we’ve all got ‘em!
You’ll be doing your part for your community as you provide a valued service to business owners who advertise online in the Noobing Rotator—plus you’ll get a chance to win NoobCash as you review.
Our NoobCash giveaway is now fully underway. Take a gander at our homepage to see how the list of winners has really blossomed. You could win just as easily as those guys. NoobCash is fully redeemable for Ad Credits to display your own website in the Noobing Rotator or they can be exchanged for cold hard cash later, if you choose.
Don’t forget that when those folks you bring into Noobing win, you win too! This excerpt from an earlier entry best explains the concept:
“…when you win NoobCash an additional 10% goes to your referrer, along with an additional 10% to their referrer, and an additional10% to the one above them…and so on and so forth, until the five referring Noobers above you have each received that percentage. That’s up to six possible winners every time.
Let’s put this into perspective for folks on the tier below you. As you refer new Noobers and they win any amount of NoobCash, we’ll shell out an additional10% to you!
In fact, you’ll get an additional 10% every time any Noober within five tiers down from you wins. Potentially that could be a lot of Noobers!
Imagine getting free NoobCash because several Noobers below you reviewed sites and won.”
Now to all those who think they’re not up to reviewer standards…the ones that say they don’t have “the eye” for design ‘cause their dog doesn’t match their sofa, or the stain on their shirt doesn’t go with their curtains—we want you…heck, our advertisers need you!
As the ultimate test audience, Noobing’s reviewers give advertisers insight they need so they can do better, and then get it right. Advertisers aren’t asking, they’re pleading. You tell them.

Reviewer Star Ratings Made Simple
What are the true weights of each grade on Noobing’s five star rating system?
It might seem simple enough with five standards to choose from, but we’d like to eliminate any confusion out there as to the exact meaning of each star in our classification structure.
Ponder for a moment that the Noobing Rotator is packed with websites for review. You love some, you like some, and you’d elect to eject some others into the dark void of deep space. Some others still, you have no idea what to do with.
So how in our world do you figure out which rating to transmit back to Advertisers?
It’s simple, just reference the official star map we’ve engineered to guide you on your journey:
• Five Stars: Pride of the Milky Way—this immaculate website sets the standard by which all other cyberspace-faring entities are judged. Reserve this rating only for the absolute best.
• Four Stars: Stellar for sure in appearance and in product, but not quite perfect—the owner should tweak it, twist it, and tune it to make this fine site shine brilliantly.
• Three Stars: Connoisseurs expect more—this totally average site is like our sun in a galaxy full of bigger, more radiant stars. The rating will keep the owner alive and breathing, but they better rocket upward before gravity drags it down, down, down.
• Two Stars: Ho-hum, this one’s hovering motionless, stranded in the ether—other reviewers will determine whether this lackluster site flies or dies.
• One Star: Back to the design board—this thing is in infinite shambles and its flight privileges on the Rotator have been removed, no arguments, no apologies.
Now clearly as an advertiser, the idea here is to shoot for the highest stars. But what if you’re not at the top of your class at the celestial academy?
Don’t despair! Keep in mind that regardless of your launch budget, Noobing gives everyone the opportunity to improve and to progress. Trim your craft, retrofit it, or completely redesign it and launch it again.
Most of all—keep looking up!

Feel the Energy
Perhaps you’ve felt the buzz as of late.
You know, that zippy sensation you get just before you’re about to be struck with that great idea. It’s similar to the spirit athletes conjure before a big game, and that extra zing kids get on Christmas Eve.
Likewise, Noobers are feeling a particular zest because they can tell big things are happening. And if you’ve noticed our site has been offline periodically, you can bet it’s for upgrades and that it’s always back up in a flash—and purring with a few extra bells, whistles and whirly-gigs.
Of course, we’ve been setting the stage, talking the talk, walking the walk, and well…dropping some not so subtle hints for months now—Noobing is getting better, bigger and stronger.
Some things you already know about, others you don’t. But all of these improvements are here for a reason. More is coming, and the momentum is building.
Everything comes in due time. Every dog will have his day. Every clock continues to tick away. Birds will keep singing. Bells will keep ringing. And the wind will continue to usher in the fantastic fragrances of your neighbor’s BBQ pit...
Well, no matter what schedule you’re on, no matter what time zone you’re in–-Noobing is on course. Growing, becoming smarter and offering more value to all. And we’ll continue to feed you updates whenever there’s news to be nosed through.
So hold your horses and embrace the buzz. Change is coming…
You gotta love Beta!

There’s a New Sheriff in Town
Have you noticed anything about the Noobing Rotator recently?
It’s not so cluttered with tricksters or trouble makers.
In fact, there’s a plethora of useful pages on the Noobing Rotator that have that certain, special-something that might be right up your alley, or your neighbors’ or your customers’—no doubt you’ll find a verifiable hodgepodge of commodities and conveniences on that thing!
From a cookie baker to a ticket taker to a leaf raker to a watch or candlestick maker, there’s a treasure trove of thing-a-ma-jigs, wha-cha-ma-call-its, doohickeys, widgets, and good old down to earth products and services of every type.
Because with Noobing, whether you’re a reviewer, an advertiser—or both, you get what you want! Think there’s still a bit of that silly stuff out there? Don’t fret! Reviewers and advertisers prevail. All it takes is a single star rating or a flag to finish the frauds.
It’s obvious you’re already bumping the bumbling bunk-bums right out of the scene.
Too bad for those tricky turkeys! But Noobing’s new law has a tried and true enforcer, a sentry that never sleeps and is well versed in the techniques of the hackers and the underhanded alike. Nearly nary a never-do-well will pass...
Sound like there’s a new Sheriff in town? You’re darn tootin’ there is!
And our good Sheriff has the support of a whole community full of determined posse members. That means more room on the Rotator for the ad righteous.
So while you’re reviewing and providing your useful feedback to the Good, the Bad and the Ugly, you’ll likely notice more of those sites that can hook you up with home furnishings, office supplies, fishing gear, next year’s Christmas gift for Auntie Betty, movie tickets for the mailman, your neighborhood auto mechanic and—well, you get the picture.
