How Can Internet Businesses Tell If A Computer Optimization Software is Really Proven in Less Than 15 Minutes?

Overview - This articles outlines a fast method for anyone to form their own opinion of the popularity of any computer optimization program (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 understand that the method referred to in this article is new and imperfect, yet presents 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 problem because computer optimization software, which are not popular may be new, unproven or both and are therefore riskier than more popular ones.
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.
Software vendors’ sites provide another method. The trouble is that software vendors are obviously partial to their products, and this is the downside of using 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… An inherent downside of this method is that 99% of these sites limit their review to the main technical features of the software they are comparing and do not refer to any external independent indicator of popularity as they lack the data to do so.
So what is the method, which can empower the users to establish the popularity of any computer optimization software independently? (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. There as several digital market place which sell many of the most popular computer optimization software and they give these software an indicator of popularity often called Gravity. This indicator is usually linked to the volume of sales for a particular software 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. This indicator 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. Eventhough this method also has its own limitation (some Computer Optimization Software may not be sold through Clickbank), the fact remains that it is one of the most accessible method of independent review today.
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).
