Amateur technology enthusiasts and professional consumers alike value her publications for their commitment to fair and honest product reviews and deep, informative content. And it’s created a buzz that has drawn the attention of major media outlets. Liss has been tapped for her consumer technology expertise by TV networks and programs including G4, BBC World, “Reliable Sources,” “CNN Saturday” and “CNN Sunday.” The Boston Globe, Christian Science Monitor and CBS Sunday Morning profiled Liss at the age of 21. And, when Inc.

The secret of CamcorderInfo.com’s success proved to be a combination of deep, quality information and an easy-to-use navigation program helpful to hobbyists and professional consumers alike. Today, CamcorderInfo.com is the largest, most-visited, most comprehensive and relied-upon camcorder and digital video publication in the United States, online or off, providing articles, reviews, ratings and product comparisons. The publication continues to grow not only in content—with a recent, significant addition to its stock footage library—but in revenue as well.

Under Liss’ leadership, the teams behind CamcorderInfo.com and DigitalCameraInfo.com built both publications into bastions of independent, ethical consumer technology review publishing that reliably meet the needs of consumers. Motivated by their success, Liss decided to take their standardized method of producing objective reviews and expand their range to include objective takes on the worlds of printers and wireless technology.

Robin Liss is implementing ambitious plans to expand her Internet presence as a means to help greater numbers of people take the fear and confusion out of living in the digital age.
