Get Paid to Blog for SponsoredReviews
If you have a blog and are looking to earn a couple of bucks for your posts, check out SponsoredReveiws.com. Similar to Pay Per Post, they pay you to blog about particular topics and/or products.
The pay scale for SponsoredReviews is a bit higher than other pay to blog sites that I’ve come across and they always seem to have a lot of blogging assignments to choose from. Once you agree to blog about a particular topic, you must use the keywords and/or links provided by the advertiser.
Word of Caution:
The downside is once you agree to complete a blogging assignment, write the post as soon as possible. Don’t do what I did. On one occasion, I waited a few days before writing the post. I wrote the blog post well within the time allotted, but, after submitting the post for approval, I was turned down because the advertiser had changed their keyword and link requirements.
I was shocked and surprised. I thought I was hallucinating. I contacted SponsoredReviews to complain about the switcheroo, but they advised that the advertisers are allowed to change their requirements. They also advised that it’s important to write the posts as soon as possible (even though they give you 7 days to write the post).
As a result, I did not get paid for that particular post. To avoid such a problem, learn from my mistake. Once you accept the assignment, write it immediately and submit the link for approval. Send it to them before they get a chance to change the requirements.
In all fairness, I have received payment from SponsoredReviews in the past, but after that switcheroo scenario, I’ve stayed away.
I was not familiar with Pay Per Post, nor Sponsored-Reviews. When it comes to writing within the blogging sphere, I am still learning. You post some very informational blogs, and thanks for your honesty as well! Cheers.
