Customers Rate Products on Yandex.Market

Internet, May 29, 2008. Shopping became easier for Yandex.Market users who can now read customer reviews published on the service. Reviews for products and services are available right on product description pages. Any authorized user can write a review.

Customer reviews, for instance, tell about how good the lens kit for a particular camera is, or if the kettle makes too much noise, or how long the cell phone battery will last. Besides, Yandex.Market is already offering customer reviews for online shops. During the three past months, customers posted 4022 reviews for 794 out of 2179 online shops on Yandex.Market.

“Customer reviews offer a brilliant opportunity to learn from others’ experience: read about strengths and weaknesses of a product and make a smart shopping decision,” says Andrey Kardapoltsev, a project manager at Yandex. “Very often we make our decisions based on views of our friends or colleagues, that is why we would like to give the Yandex.Market users an opportunity to share their reviews with each other and help others make a good choice.”

Yandex.Market is an all-purpose service for those who want to buy products and services without wasting time and money. The Market helps to find and choose products and compare prices. Every month, more than three million people choose products at the Market from 3.3 million offers in over two thousands online shops.
