General Help
How do I add something to the Hotlist?- Easy! Just click on the icon called “Add a Review” on the dashboard on the right hand side of the home page and category pages. Your review will appear on the home page under most recently added and as that item becomes more popular with other Chicks reviewing it, it will start appearing on the hotlist.
I registered but never received my confirmation emai- Check your spam folder, it may have gone in there. Also add chickadvisor.com to your safe list so it isn’t treated as spam.
What should I put as the name of my review?- It's important that you put the most accurate information possible so that other users can easily search for it and add their own reviews. Please make sure you enter the brand and product's correct name in your review or if it is a location, the full name of the store. For example:
“Maybelline New York Colossal Volum Express Mascara
Or
“B Espresso Bar”
Why do I need to register in order to add something?- We want to maintain the integrity of the reviews and avoid spammage.
What is the policy on member profiles?- Member profiles are for regular “Chicks” or “Dudes” only. This is not the place to advertise your business. It is for adding reviews, making friends and interacting in a non-spammy way with our members. Can you tell we hate spam yet?
We do allow you to add a link to your blog/website but do not use your profile as an area to advertise your business, publish your logo or as a tool to contact other members for the purposes of solicitation as that is strictly forbidden. We reserve the right to delete profiles that violate this policy.
