Posted by Allen in Make money online |
Hi! I'm Allen and I welcome you to my blog. I blog mainly about my blogging experiences where I get to learn how to earn money online through blogging and have fun doing so. To learn more about my blog, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. If you have some questions, feel free to ask me by using my contact form. Thank and have a nice day.
I can still remember a few months back where I disliked having paid posts here in my blog because it will just pollute my blog. I used to think that those who do it are all after the money and do not care about their traffic and readership. But, after going through a lot of blog hopping, reading posts here and there, I came to realize, paid posting isn’t as bad as people seem to look at it. In short, I needed money =)
The way I look at it right now, it’s a good way to earn money online. Based from my experience before when I started with paid reviews, I can publish a post in 20-30 minutes after doing the spell checks, rereading it and checking for errors and I got the minimum pay of $6 per post. At that time, I felt guilty to my readers so I stopped for a while but then I realized, even bloggers are not spared from fees and bills. We have to pay for our hosting and domain and one of the easiest ways to do this is to write paid reviews.
What keeps people from doing paid reviews is they are thinking of their readers. Now let us think of what composes a paid post. Normal post + paid link = Paid post. If you look at this equation, it’s just the link that makes the difference between your normal post and a paid post. So what you can do in this situation is to write normally like what you are used to doing while adding the paid post somewhere in the post. I’m sure your readers will understand. They won’t leave your site just because they saw some blog ads in your post.
Now, I’m proud to say that I’ve joined the censored bandwagon and I’m now telling you in advance that you might see some blue and underlined text (links
) more often in this blog. But as a guarantee, I’ll still write normally as I always do and just insert those blue text once in a while. You won’t even notice it’s there sometimes. ^_^
So are you with me? or are you against me? Also, I’m proud to say that I’m going to earn from this post ($20 or Php800) just by telling you my thoughts. ^_^

1Shhh.. don’t mentioned censored.. Big brother googel might hear you..
I’ve been a censored member for almost a year now.. But lately I stopped.. well not actually stopped.. it ’s just that, my PR4 blog became PR0 because of censored… so less (as in almost no opps) for me, and for PR0 blogs in general..
I have a PR2 blog which is also a member of censored, but I chose the opps I write there, siguro minimum is $10.. :), I don’t want to get Google anger with that blog..
Goodluck in censoredt! there are others like that too! Cheers!

2I agree with Eli. Don’t say bad words
My blog was also PR4 but it crashed to PR0 and since then, I haven’t been able to get it back. That’s like half a year ago now, I think. I’m probably exaggerating.
If you want paid posts that doesn’t really pollute your blog, you can try this and maybe 1 out of 50 you’ll need to write a review of something. Most of the time, you’ll only need to include the link in your blog.
Sure enough, it’s only about like $5 per post, but it’s steady and it keeps the money coming. I got at one time more than $100 in just one month. Sure, that’s 20 paid posts, but it’s not really that noticeable. I’ve stopped doing the-program-that-i-shall-not-name posts and I don’t really regret it. Aside from not having enough opps for PR0 blogs (it was their fault in the first place =/), it’s not consistent.

4@Eli - Hello Eli, Thanks for the warning. I’ll gladly edit this post and change all the wordings just to be sure. (I even edited your comment for any of censored words) haha
Anyways, I’ve been google slapped before but I just asked for a reconsideration. Have you tried that?

5I gave up with the censored company after one of my blogs went from a PR5 to a PR0. (I’ve since been restored to a PR3 but with 5500+ backlinks I’m obviously still being penalized).
Now I prefer this company which allows me to write reviews that contain actual content (not merely plugs for some business), including links to relevant news stories and other websites. And, incidentally, my income from that company dwarfs what I made with that censored one.

6@Mi - Thanks for the advice. It seems that a lot had bad experience with that censored company so I guess that will be my first and last post about it in this blog. I joined that program before but I have yet to get an opportunity but thanks for the heads-up.
