The Problem With Most Reviews
Most affiliate product reviews read like spec sheets. They list features without explaining benefits, don't address real concerns, and feel like ads rather than helpful content.
The AIDA Review Framework
Attention Open with a relatable problem or scenario. "If you've been struggling to edit videos on your aging laptop, you know the frustration of waiting 30 minutes for a 5-minute export."
Interest Share your experience or thorough research. Be specific with details, numbers, and real-world use cases.
Desire Paint a picture of life with this product. Focus on outcomes, not features. "I went from 30-minute exports to 3-minute exports" is more compelling than "It has an M2 chip."
Action Make the next step clear with a strong call-to-action. Include your affiliate link naturally and tell people exactly what they'll get.
