Capabilities
The PwR Core Platform provides a comprehensive framework of capabilities designed to enable the
collection, display, and distribution of authentic user-generated content. PwR Core Platform helps
support the business practices related to using the power of customer feedback to build trust, drive
sales, and improve their products and services.
Key Features:
- Review Collection: The PwR Core Platform facilitates the collection of product reviews and
ratings through various channels such as email and website integrations. It provides
customizable templates and scheduling options for requesting feedback from consumers after
they’ve made a purchase or interacted with the product/service.
- Moderation and Management: The PwR Core Platform offers tools for moderating and
managing incoming reviews. This includes features like automated spam detection, content
moderation, and the ability to flag or filter reviews based on predefined criteria to ensure
authenticity and relevance.
- Syndication (PwR Syndication):
- PwR Syndication enables Client to extend the reach of its consumer reviews by allowing
for the distribution of consumer-generated content to third-party retailers and other
online channels where potential end customers may be researching products or making
purchasing decisions.
- Expanded Reach: By syndicating review content, businesses can increase the impact of a
single review or piece of content. This ensures maximum sales lift, even across retailer
sites.
- Customization and Control: Businesses have control over which review content is
syndicated and where it is displayed. This can ensure your content is only shared to
authorized resellers.
- Analytics: With PowerReviews analytics you can understand the reach of your content,
and monitor performance metrics to optimize syndication efforts over time.
- This solution leverages product data provided by the Client. It is the Client’s responsibility
to ensure the product data, particularly UPC/EAN/GTIN, is clean and accurate to enable
auto-matching. If manual matching is necessary due to unavailable data, the Client agrees
to provide the Company with a mapping file containing their product details and relevant
sender’s or receiver’s information.
- SEO and Rich Snippets: The PwR Core Platform helps clients optimize their review content for
search engines by generating rich snippets that enhance the visibility and click-through rates of
product pages in search results. This includes displaying star ratings, review counts, and other
relevant information directly in search listings.
- Analytics and Insights: The PwR Core Platform provides analytics and reporting tools to track
the performance of reviews and ratings over time. The suite includes customizable reports,
report scheduling, data visualizations, and site analytics to measure the impact of ratings and
reviews on conversion rates.
- Customization and Integration: The PwR Core Platform offers customization options to match
the branding and style of Client’s websites and marketing materials. It also integrates seamlessly
with e-commerce platforms, content management systems, and other third-party tools, making it
easy to incorporate review functionality into existing workflows.
