It's a dangerous game to get involved in the paid post world, but also one of the most profitable ways to make money online. All you do is write ads. This guide offers several examples of powerful paid posting operations which can earn you some blogging cash if you put time into it. It's not unheard of to make thousands of dollars from a SINGLE service. Still, there are dangers, so let's first go over those.
One of the biggest danger of paid blogging is losing your Google Page Rank. It happens to bloggers who fill their blogs with lots of paid posts. Say you're working with a company, and you have two blogs. They offer ten ads for you to write, and you reserve them all. Now, since most paid posts have a time limit, you need to write five ads per blog in sometimes less than two days. That fills your blog with paid posts. That's why, I believe, Google is attempting to curtail bloggers from overfilling their blogs with paid posts.
The result is, after months of paid blogging, you make quite a bit but lose your valuable Page Rank (PR). So what do you do then? First, before you even go into the paid posting world, understand that it doesn't happen to every blogger. And if you do lose your PR, it can be corrected. There are many different strategies across the net, but one proposed adding NO FOLLOW tags into the paid links in your blog post. This is a simple HTML fix. Then you wait - or take some elements of Search Engine Optimization into action!
The Benefits of Paid Blogging:
However, if you went into blogging thinking you'd be lucky to break $100 a month for your blog after a year, think again. Paid posts are incredible profitable ways for bloggers to earn blogging cash. You can make as much as you want, depending on the rankings of your blog itself. Making $30 for 150 words isn't out of the question, nor is making even more per post.
Who to Use:
Most readers will know the main paid blogging sites. There are Smorty, Blogitive, Pay Per Post, Loud Launch, Blogging Ads, and dozens of others. Pay Per Post is perhaps the best... Blogitive the steadiest earner... Blogging Ads the smallest... and Smorty seems to be going downhill with so few ads being posted. The power in all of this seems to be so many options. But you must first put the time into creating a successful blog. Your blog usually needs to be 30-90 days old and have some kind of PR to be accepted into most paid blogging programs.
What do you write?
You write a short ad for your blog. For instance, Blogitive will ask you to write 100 words on a new health site. You are given a press release to work from... write the ad in your language at 100 words and submit it on your blog... then publish and paste the final URL into the Blogitive form. It sounds complicated, but that takes you a total of 5-20 minutes to write one ad. Some take longer, some pay more than others, and it's all about what the market is seeing.
Making Money Blogging:
So maybe you thought $100 a month was a good goal. It's not a bad one; many would be happy with it. However, with paid blogging you can make that in a week, sometimes a day. And it's all part time work. Again, however, you have to handle your PR. It's up to you whether paid blogging is the way to go.
