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 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 software been so vast, yet most computer users do not tend to rely on impartial information to verify the popularity of computer optimization software before making their purchase. This is problematic because computer optimization software which are not popular are either new, unproven or both. Either way they are riskier.

The options - Most users still rely on forums. One key challenge with this method is that forums can (at best) provide anecdotal evidence of the perceived popularity of any Computer Optimization Program, another disadvantage is that some forum members may just be promoting their products instead of sharing 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.

An alternative method relies on trusted independent sites, which review different computer optimization software with similar functionality, for example Anit-Virus software, Registry Cleaning Software, Anti Adware/ Spyware programs etc… A major challenge with this method is that by and large, these sites focus their attention almost exclusively on the detailed technical features of the software they are comparing, and do not provide independent information on their 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. 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. In the main, Gravity is an indicator of the number of sales for a particular digital product over time. The Gravity measure of any digital product is calculated and compared independently from any software vendor by Clickbank. However imperfect, Gravity is a good independent measure of popularity. Anyone can independently verify the real popularity of any computer optimization software visiting Clickbank or another digital marketplace. In spite of the fact that the method has inherent limitations (i.e not all Computer Optimization Software are sold via Clickbank), it is still one of the most accessible to follow independently.

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).
