The almost complete guide to paid posting
BloggerNoob is a big fan of paid posting. I think it’s a great way for novice bloggers to start monetizing their blogs. I searched and compiled a list of the best paid posting programs. I know there are sites like squido and helium that pay you to be part of their network but i decided to leave them out for this post. I want to focus on paid posting programs that pay you to post on your blog. Here is the list starting with the best.
1. Payperpost- by far the largest and most active of all the paid posting sites.
2. Sponsoredreviews- if you keep bidding you will get some posting gigs.
3. Smorty- like the site but hard to find posting gigs
4. Bloggerwave- only done one so far
5. Payu2blog- still waiting for approval
6. Reviewme- still waiting for approval
7. Loudlaunch- not very active
8. Blogitive-not very active
9. Inblogads-not very active
10. Bloggingads-still waiting for approval
11. Blogtoprofit- not very active
12. Linkworth- not very active
I can’t report most of these sites cause they are not very active or slow to accept my blog. My blog is still pretty new so i’ll wait until i get approved. Maybe i’ll get some gigs in the next month or so. I’ll post a review of these sites when i get a chance to use all of them. Hopefully this list was helpful.

i got a message from blogcatalog that you added me as your friend.am here to say thanks for adding me..i really appreciate it..thanks again..
December 11th, 2007 at 5:56 pm
great post… I’ll keep an eye on those sites in the future
December 11th, 2007 at 7:05 pm
Very good list! I’ve never heard of most of them, unfortunately they’re all tagged as “not very active”.
still a good list though 
Ah well…
December 11th, 2007 at 7:06 pm
Hi noob..I don’t see Adsense in your list.. Are you trying to say that Adsense can’t make much money to your site?
Anyway, Cool blog, dood..! Link to yours already..
December 11th, 2007 at 8:25 pm
Hi from BlogCatalog. Very good post.I stumble it of course

PPP and PU2B are my top favorites. The others are really feast or famine for me as far as opps go. Of course, since I’ve lost my PR it’s been a famine! lol!
December 12th, 2007 at 5:03 am
Good info. Complete. PPP is the King of this realm. When I inquired of them how much, to avail myself of their services, they quoted me a minimum of $10,000 per month. Sounds like they are “making it,” quite big.
December 12th, 2007 at 5:39 am
rampantheart- those two are usually the best to start with. i’ve found that sponsored has more jobs on a more consistant basis.
janine- you don’t have to thank me for that.
globalwealthcreator- thanks
tremium- yeah. i’ll report later once i get some gigs.
jeremy- not a big fan of adsense. i don’t think they work well on make money blogs. problogger doesn’t use it anymore either.
svajdlenka- thanks for the stumble
jennyupthehill-sucks that you lost ur PR. good thing my blog is new and didn’t have pr to begin with.
jackpayne-what do u mean “how much to make yourself avail of their service? you work as a consultant?
December 12th, 2007 at 6:33 am
No, no, Nobb. They quoted me a CHARGE of $10,000 if I were to buy their service. Needless to say, I ran for the tall grass.
December 12th, 2007 at 12:55 pm
Thanks so much for asking me to be a friend.
Be blest,
Susan

It took me ages to get accepted for PPP and they keep declining my reviews on the the grounds that my blog is showing adverts from Adsense, Kontera, etc.
Apparently they don’t like other advertising avenues on blogs that are in heir network

What’s your view of Social Spark. I think it stinks because of the payment system. I wrote about it here: http://grandgennetay.typepad.com/my_weblog/2008/06/payperpost-and-social-spark-the-last-word.html
I’d be interested to hear your comments on it though.

July 7th, 2008 at 7:40 pm
dean saliba- yeah, i don’t think kontera works with them. Adsense is ok, but you can’t have links within the sponsored posts. Kontera will place links in them.
jean halford-thompson- hate it. It’s lame. I’m a paid plugging whore, but i won’t touch social spark.

Haven’t tried PPP yet but wanna try this out for my blog (general blog not MMO)
But it takes much time to get our blog approved and after long time we get some posting job from their side…

Noob: I’ve read that using PPP can kill your google page rank and hurt your google SEQ. Do you know anything about that? Truth or fiction?
August 27th, 2008 at 6:44 pm
thepit- yes it is true. bloggernoob.com only has a PR2 on the google toolbar because i used to do a lot of paid plugs. I think that this blog would be around PR4 if i hadn’t done any. I think it’s a matter of what you want with you blog. if you want to make a quick buck, paid plugging is great. But, that can dry up fast, because you need PR to make money with paid plugs. That’s why i am a big believer of multi blogging. Set up a lot of blogs. With your main blogs, seo and create lasting traffic and reader base. Don’t mess with paid plugs on those main blogs. With your other blogs, sell out big time. Do as many paid plugs as possible.
hope that helps.
August 27th, 2008 at 6:46 pm
LOL! Great advice. Thanks for the quick feedback.
August 27th, 2008 at 6:48 pm
thepit- u caught me at the right time. no worries about the advice. us noobs gotta stick together.

I’ll bet that if I were getting paid to post on my own blog that I would probably post more. Thanks for the great info!
