Humble Reviews – The End
I have been deliberating doing this for a while now. I haven’t updated Humble Reviews for a few months now.
With so little time on hand it became really difficult to maintain multiple sites, especially one which requires you to constantly update. I still watch several movies a week and would love to review them, however writing high quality reviews for every movie isn’t always possible and sadly, isn’t always the priority.
Additionally, requests sent out for users to contribute reviews have failed, I guess because nobody would like to just write for free and I can’t afford to pay anyone to review. Hence, your review would have to be only out of passion.
So with that I will be shutting down the website. To avoid losing the posts, I will be importing the posts to this blog.
I will be using to WordPress XML Export to perform the move. I believe I will be able to edit the XML exported to file and split it so that I can import a few posts at a time. I am not sure if I will be able to do so. If not, then all probability you may see a huge number of new posts on this blog.
You should see this happen by this weekend.

I feel your pain. I have multiple sites and I know how had it is to maintain multiple sites.
If you want people to contribute to your site, paying them is not the best way – bringing more people in is better. Use the 90-9-1 rule(http://www.useit.com/alertbox/participation_inequality.html)
“In most online communities, 90% of users are lurkers who never contribute, 9% of users contribute a little, and 1% of users account for almost all the action.”
That is completely true about this blog too
sorry to hear that ajay.
i wish the site stayed live with reviews. anyway, since you are importing everything in here, that would be ok.
The import has been completed and the domain is now up for sale
