Just signed up with them. Will see as I add one a day to my blog if they do as they say and pay out as they say. Heck, I may become an advertiser and be the picky one in the bunch that only wants a pr6 blog to advertise on! LOL
Did you post a blog about a site? How much were you offered for it? As long as they aren't xxx.blogspot.com the PR wouldn't bug me so much. Wait..er.. I mean how much traffic the blog receives. Yeah, that's the ticket LOL I signed up as an advertiser, but I can't see what other peoples' "opportunities" are - I'm curious about that - see what the general price range, quality, etc, is.
To grab one of the advertisers there to blog about. I am picky about what I put on my blog. BUt most look like they pay $5 for a blog.
Check out their alexa ranking. This company just SKY ROCKETED. Also I signed up and wrote a post. Seeing if it gets approved before I do any more. But if I am reading that right and its $5+ a post. I can sit here and do that all day! Escpecially at 40 words per post. Or most of em are that short.
Yeah, it seems to be new. Are you concerned that since payperpost is (on its main page) selling the SEM benefits as one of the primary reasons to doing this; that this may result in some sort of (google) penalty at some point? From an advertiser perspective, it'd be an interesting way to create a little buzz (even if its like buying a friend).
Site belongs to a fellow DP member. http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=102296 There's also another one that you can consider. http://www.blogproductplacement.com/
Its possible they could get a penalty but I would never advertise there. But if they keep paying me $5-$10 to write 40 words on my blog then I will do that.
Is there any type of cap on how much you could earn? I'm only seeing 19 opportunities... that's not very much...
Not that I have seen yet. Today looks like the first day the site has seen any action though so who knows really what is going on.
I signed up last night and posted a 10 post job. WORTHLESS! I am not sure how the bloggers do it, but they are not posting to the front pages of their blogs. My account has a direct link to their posts, but when I go to their front page - the post is no where to be found. Some examples: Paid Post -> http://www.cassknits.com/?p=656 Front page -> http://www.cassknits.com (can anyone find that post?) Paid Post -> http://elliottback.com/wp/archives/2006/07/01/text-link-for-global-emissions/ Front Page -> http://elliottback.com/wp/ (anywhere to be found??) What does everyone think?
I think this person *thinks* they had a good idea making this site, but I have a feeling no one will ever get paid from it. They claim they were in BusinessWeek???
Doesn't seem to be a very reliable service.. And 30 days is too long. Thats the only thing thats keeping me away from joining.
Well the post goes through an approval process. I personally think you the owner should be able to approve it. If I was Phynder I would be pissed on where my posts showed up and refuse to pay.
Nah - not mad, disappointed. I guess I paid my "Stooopidity Tax" for this week via this service. Just wanted to let any other potential advertisers know not to waste their time. Could be a good deal for bloggers, but eventually if advertisers don't come back the service will fold. I have gotten excellent (both paid and free) postings from DP members, so I am going to stick with working with bloggers from DP.
If it were me, I would be screaming for my money back! That looks like a neat scam for someone, post an advertisers ad deep in a blog and get paid for it! Heck, everyone ought to go to those 2 forums and post negative comments. Okay, will just delete my account at that site and not tell a soul about how this may just scam advertisers out of money.
Yeah I don't see it on the page. Looks like it got buried. I really dont mean to laugh, but: Now that's an insightful blog post! The above post highlights my issue with this. I'd want a better blog post than something like this. This post stinks - admittedly, I didnt read any of the others on the blog - but if all the posts are like this one, I can't imagine how they'd drive traffic nor create buzz. I saw this on DIGG the other day, and it said match.com and superman movie used the service. Anyone see the match or superman posts? I wanna see if they are the same "quality"
Im still waiting for one of my posts to get approved. I wrote 200 words when I only needed 40. Included all pictures and links. Its on the homepage. Yet I didnt get appoved yet. But its only been a day. Just saying I think something is fishy about this whole thing.
