As I mentioned earlier, I am experimenting with paid posting sites this month. One thing is for sure, paid posting will earn you money. I am all for this, as I like to see the little buy make a few bucks. Some people criticize the practice, but is it really any different than having banners on the sidebar, or selling text-links? Advertising is advertising. The only issue would be when a paid post isn’t disclosed as such, as then the reader doesn’t know it’s an ad. Unfortunately, some advertisers don’t want disclosure, so we all have to make a judgement on whether or not to proceed based on our personal ethics.

I have been using PayPerPost on this blog. Google doesn’t like them, so I don’t know if I’ll continue for very long. I’d never use PayPerPost on my sites that have decent PR, as Google can take it away. I guess their issue is with paid links that are do-follow, as no-follow paid posting sites appear to escape their wrath.

I occasionally use ReviewMe and Sponsored Reviews on some of my medium sized blogs. These companies tend to pay more, and you don’t have to “fight” for the opportunities like with PayPerPost. Also ReviewMe and Sponsored Reviews get you your money fast, where as with PPP you have to wait thirty days.

I’ll continue to try them out and let y’all know how it goes.
