A review answers one question: is this good for this person? Not “is this the best product ever.” Fill the outline in order; leave hands-on sections empty rather than pretending.
1. Situation — who this review is for
2. Method — how you know what you know
| What I personally used / observed | What official sources state (with URL + date checked) | What remains untested (say so on the page) |
| | |
Disclosure slot — the plain sentence sits immediately before your first recommendation below: “This site contains affiliate links. If you buy through them I may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.”
3. Verdict — the honest one
4. Who should / should not buy this
| Should buy if… | Should NOT buy if… |
| |
5. Next step — one action
Refusals: no invented star ratings, no fake “I tested 47 products,” no verdict the method section cannot support.
