How Can Any Computer User Tell If A Computer Optimization Software is Really Proven in Less Than 15 Minutes?

November 3rd, 2009

Overview - This articles outlines a fast method for anyone to form their own opinion of the popularity of any computer optimization program (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 be made aware of the fact that, whilst the method described in this article is still new and imperfect it can still be used to their advantage.   

The problem - Never has the choice of computer optimization software been so vast, yet most computer users do not tend to rely on impartial information to verify the popularity of computer optimization software before making their purchase. This is a problem because computer optimization software, which are not popular may be new, unproven or both and are therefore riskier than more popular ones.

The options - Most users still rely on forums. Yet the problem with this approach is that forums provide, at best anecdotal evidence of the popularity of any software. Another obvious downside is the risk that participants to the forum may seek to just promote their own software instead of providing their independent opinion.

Software vendors’ sites provide another method. An obvious challenge with this method is that vendors are not independent and that they will always present their software in the best possible way.

An alternative method relies on trusted independent sites, which review different computer optimization software with similar functionality, for example Anit-Virus software, Registry Cleaning Software, Anti Adware/ Spyware programs etc… An inherent downside of this method is that 99% of these sites limit their review to the main technical features of the software they are comparing and do not refer to any external independent indicator of popularity as they lack the data to do so.

So how can users looking to optimize their computer form their own independent opinion of the most popular software to purchase? (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. This indicator is usually linked to the volume of sales for a particular software over a period of time. Software vendors have no influence on the Gravity measure that Clickbank calculate and compare across any range of digital products. This indicator 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. Even if this method is not perfect (some Computer Optimization Programs are not sold via Clickbank), it is probably the most accessible for anyone to follow independently.

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).
