How Can Business IT Support Verify The Real Popularity of Any Computer Optimization Software In 15 Minutes or Less?

Overview - This article describes a fast method that anyone can use to independently assess the popularity of any computer optimization software (e.g. Registry fix software, registry cleaner software, error fixing software etc..). It also uses the real life example of a website dedicated to help users fix computer errors, which has already adopted this method for screening relevant software for further review.

Readers should be aware that, although the method described in this article is new and not perfect, it does present a distinct advantage over most other alternatives.   

The problem - Never has the choice of computer optimization programs been so large, yet most computer users do not tend to rely on impartial information to verify the popularity of computer optimization software before buying their preferred solution. This is a challenge, because computer optimization software which are popular also tend to be proven and effective. Conversely those which are not may be new, unproven or both and are inherently riskier.

The options - Most users still rely on forums. Yet the problem with this approach is that forums provide, at best anecdotal evidence of the popularity of any software. Another obvious downside is the risk that participants to the forum may seek to just promote their own software instead of providing their independent opinion.

Another method is to visit software vendors’ sites. Clearly vendors are not independent and this is an inherent limitation of this method.

Another option, is to review independent sites, which usually compare several computer optimization software in the same category for instance Anti-Virus software, Registry Repair Software, Anti Adware/ Spyware software etc… The problem with this method is that 99% of these sites go straight into the details of the technical features, and that they do not give an independent perspective of the popularity of the products they are comparing, as they lack the data to do so.

So how can users looking to optimize their computer form their own independent opinion of the most popular software to purchase? (click on registry fix software example)

15 Minutes Method - A superior method is to look at the data provided by digital market places such as Clickbank for example, which is the largest of them all. Many of the most popular computer optimization software are sold at least partly through digital market places and are given an indicator of popularity known as Gravity. Gravity is an indicator, which is linked to the volume of sales for a particular program over a period of time. Software vendors have no influence on the Gravity measure that Clickbank calculate and compare across any range of digital products. Gravity is therefore a good independent measure of popularity. Anyone can independently verify the real popularity of any computer optimization software visiting Clickbank or another digital marketplace. Despite the fact that even this method has its own limitation (i.e. Clickbank does not sell all Computer Optimization Programs), it is one that can be followed independently by anyone.

Example - Some software review sites have adopted this method and are now referring to the Clickbank popularity of the digital products that they are also reviewing independently (Click on fix registry errors for a live example).
