Making Money From Your Blog – Pay Per Post
We bloggers work hard. Some of us blog for a living while others do it for fun, all of us spending hours typing out our thoughts into cyber-space, hoping that someone will read them, subscribe, then come back for more. But unlike a published authors’ printed paper masterpiece, we don’t get paid in a traditional sense. Instead, we rely on a variety of Internet programs to bring in the dollars. You can use affiliate marketing programs, genereate revenue for your blog with ads, or you can get paid to do sponsor posts. One of my personal favourite sites for this is Pay Per Post.
Pay Per Post allows you to make money by writing sponsored posts for your blog. It is free to sign up and submit your blog to the directory and you get to choose which advertisers you write for. Once your blog has been approved, you are contacted by the advertisers via the site with their offer that will include the topic, website link and the price they are willing to pay, which you can negotiate. If you decide to accept the offer, all you need to do is write a post meeting the advertisers requirements, submit the URL, then sit back and wait to be paid. You can also set your own price per post, from link costing to amount per word. Once you have earned a minimum of $50, you are able to cash out either by PayPal or cheque. Having a huge variety of advertisers on board, there are endless topics available to write about to either fit your niche blog, or to break that spell of writers block.
It can take a bit of time to get your first offer, particularly if your blog is only new. But once you start bringing in some more traffic and boost your Google Ranking, you should receive at least one offer per week. I have found that it is also best to log into the site every now and then to view your “Leads” as these will often convert to more paid offers.
Overall, I would give Pay Per Post 4 out of 5 Stars.
