Once I got my hands on the WP Reviews, I knew I found a review plugin that is even more handy and comes more features than Author hhReview. I recommend this plugin this plugin looking for review system that author and the readers can vote on. If you only need a system where the authors can vote, then I would recommend Author hReview. Both plugs are great and designed with Google Search Engines in mind, so everything is SEO friendly and will be updated has Google changes the SEO rules.<\/p>\n<p>To see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.evolutionarydesigns.net\/blog\/wp-reviews\" target=\"_blank\">WP Reviews<\/a> in action as a review site, check out the new WordPress review site <a href=\"http:\/\/wpleaders.com\" target=\"_blank\">WP Leaders<\/a>, or you can check out the latest <a href=\"http:\/\/www.evolutionarydesigns.net\/blog\/2013\/05\/22\/topaz-clarity-review\/\" target=\"_blank\">review<\/a> I did.
