Papa Ces

I just remember that I've read a news article about two weeks ago that more and more people are relying on the accounts or statements that bloggers write regarding products and services.

Let me clear that up a little bit. That news article said that when people wants to buy something, let's say a new laptop, they would go Google it and then would choose to read the reviews made by bloggers regarding that new laptop model that they want.

It means that more people are starting to value the opinions of bloggers and highly gives importance to these bloggers whenever they make their purchase decisions.

What could be behind it? I can only think of one thing. Perhaps it's because bloggers are just like you and me. They are common, normal people who have tried a certain product, got pleased or pissed with it, and just stating their opinions of it. It makes the product review more human and more likely to be unbiased, assuming that the blogger was not paid to write that review.

I also have my faith on my fellow bloggers that whenever I want to find out about something, I try to find what others say about it before I dole out the cash. So far everything that I bought using this technique brought me much satisfaction. Whether it's my Asus Eee PC, my Genius headset or my Samsung LCD monitor. It goes to show that a good quality product can usually get its right share of promotion, an unbiased one, through word of mouth starting with bloggers.
