PayPerPost Love

Unles you have been living up a tree for the last several months you will know that PayPerPost is a make money blogging site which sponsors blog posts. In other words they are a middleman. This blog was accepted by PayPerPost about a month or so ago when I crossed the '3 month old' boundary'. Since then I have completed just two sponsored posts from PayPerpost; mostly because until the recent Google Page Rank update many of the opportunities were unavailable to me.

Those two posts have made me a humble $14, of which $6.50 was actually paid into my PayPal account this morning. That money (I know it's not much!) will go into my general 'Gap year fund' which comprises of personal savings and other money I have made online.

If anything, my experience from being with PayPerPost has reinforced the phrase 'don't put all your eggs in one basket'. This phrase has become a bit of a cliché in blogging, but that is for a very good reason; it is 100% true.

Breaking news: PayPerPost has Bought a Company!

Payperpost (a service that sponsors posts on blogs) announced that they have bought a company! Next week they will announce what that company is and what exactly it will mean for us.

For now all we can do is speculate. Buying a company clearly shows PayPerPost's growth. Being a member/fan of PayPerPost I say good for them. A lot of the veteran 'posties' say PayPerPost are deteriorating and only have offers about real estate and credit cards, however I disagree.

PayPerPost may have a smaller range of offers than in the past, but they are still one of the highest paying and most reliable sponsored posting services out there. This acquisition (whatever it may be) will hopefully enable PayPerPost to add new features to their service, which is becoming aged. It wont be long before they will lose the advantage of their reliable reputation. They are in danger of becoming just 'one of the many' sponsored posting sites, instead of the leader of the pack.

I am actually quite exited about what this new company could do for PayPerPost. Maybe there will be more offers relevant to the 'blogging and making money online' niche. It should coincide nicely with the Google Page Rank update, (when it finally happens), enabling us to all make more money!

Review My Blog posts for Cash!

Before you say anything I am not starting yet another post that offers cash prizes from me to you for reviewing my blog. I am offering something even better.

I am joining the age-old PayPerPost crowd. Some have called it the 'dark side'. I call it the money side. My last post made me a cool $7.50 but PayPerPost have a clever way that enables you to make money by reviewing my blog!

Many of you know about this already, but this is the deal:

- Sign up to PayPerPost through one of the buttons I have added at the bottom of many of my blog posts. (PayPerPosts toughest entry requirement is that your blog must be at least 3 months old).
- PayPerPost pay you $7.50 for writing a review of one of my blog posts and posting it on your blog.
- PayPerPst pay me $7.50 too!

I'd say (obviously I would) that this is way better than having the 'chance to win' money for the best review. Provided you get in to PayPerPost you are guaranteed the cash!...and so am I :)

If you haven’t signed up to PayPerPost already then go through one of my buttons and make us both a quick and easy $7.50!

Largest Blog Comment Chain World Record Attempt

On the PayPerPost blog they are attemtping to create the largest 'comment chain' ever. They are aiming pretty high and are trying for 2000 comments where only 10% can be from the author of the post. Its pretty high because there are only about 10 so far!

What makes this even more insane is that they are offering $7.50 to anyone who blogs about it to spread the word. To do this you need to pass the payperpost entry requirements. Many bloggers are rejected because their blog isn't over 90 days old. This blog is just over 90days old and this is my first ever sponsored post from any sponsored posting service ever!

If you are already a member of Payperpost or you have a blog that is over 90 days old then why not head on over there and make some quick bucks! You might as well add a comment to their blog post while you're at it.
