Pay Per Post

I don’t know if anyone else has, well if many people have, come across something in the blogging world

There’s a great website at blog reviews which allows you to get paid for your posting. I can certainly see that would encourage some people to post to their blog more frequently.

The biggest problem, that I’ve seen anyway, in the blogosphere is when a good site starts up and then dies some time into it. I suppose there must be dozens of reasons why that could happen, such as illness, lack of time, lack of interest. But surely lack of motivation must be one of the biggest causes?

Payperpost is a website that I joined recently. It’s a given that they pay you for making a post and the amount can vary from a couple of dollars to $15 or $20. I don’t think anyone will ever retire on that kind of money, but for many people it might just make the difference between making a post and not bothering.

The site itself is clean, colourful and easy to use. Very Web 2.0, in fact.

I’ve suggested to my brother that he signs up and starts making a blog. He has a computer. He has the internet. He has time.

He has no motivation.

Getting paid for blogging might actually change that.

I’ve even got signup links to the site on the bottom of all my posts now. There are so many people out there blogging for free. I think it would be pretty good if more joined in this cultural change.
