Monetize your Blog with PayPerPost
One way bloggers can make some extra money from their blog is by joining a website like PayPerPost. In order to get paid for blogging all you need to do is write about web sites, products, services, and companies that are related to your blog. In so doing you earn cash for providing your opinion and feedback which is useful for your readers and for advertisers.
The great thing about PayPerPost is that disclosure is required, meaning you must make sure your readers know when you are writing a sponsored post. You can read more word of mouth ethics on the PayPerPost website which explain how and why this is done.
Writing a paid post does not take away from your content at all because you are not required to write a positive review. In fact, its important for both your readers and advertisers that you write an honest review such that all parties benefit from the agreement. By making sure you only write paid posts for topics related to your blog you are in fact writing posts you may have written anyways for free with the hopes of making money from ads displayed on your site. That’s what I love most about PayPerPost, making money writing articles I would have written anyways.
One thing that I’ve learned since I’ve started using PayPerPost is that many people have mixed feelings towards the opportunity it provides. Therefore, if you want to avoid backlash from your readers, don’t overdo it! Make sure you only accept those opportunities that fit the topic of your blog and make sure you avoid spamming your own website with paid posts. PayPerPost won’t make you rich, but its a great extra way to monetize your blog a little more and to expand your income streams!
