Make money blogging

October 13th 2006 23:16

Here's an opportunity I'd like to share....BlogtoProfit says they are expanding quickly! They currently have more and more advertisers who want to sponsor your blogs and they need more bloggers!

There are many opportunities for everyone! **

They are most interested in blogs that have their own unique domain rather than shared blog services such as blogspot, livejournal, etc. But if they like your blog they will make you an offer. I've been with them for about 8 weeks and they pay promptly and do not require much.

Oh yes, sorry I was in a hurry. I wanted to add that once you sign up, they check out your site which could take a couple of days, but once they approve you, they immediately send you jobs that you can do...as soon as you send them the links to your blog proving that you did them, they paypal you almost instantly. When I get a job (which is normally in multiples of five ($25), I do them right then and email them back immediately. I have my money usually in less than two hours. And the rate is $5 per post which only needs to be about a paragraph.

I signed up with them and they sent me money after a while but never sent me any links. I let them know immediately but it still hasn't been resolved.

Wow...I'd contact them again. They've been awesome for me...just today, I did five, turned in their XLS sheet and an hour later paypal notified me of the $25 deposit.

Those things tire me out anyway. I always feel like I have to make them worthwhile to readers so I try too hard to possibly do five in a day.

Yeah, I know what you mean...but every buck helps and it seems after a while they just kind of roll out of me....course I'm a talker and it reflects in my blogs

Thanks for dropping by.

I've often wondered how much money I'd make if I did get paid for blogging ...

It's a nice thought ...

It's not much, but it adds up when you figure in Adsense, and any other random stuff. But hands down Blogtoprofit is the best thing going.

I signed up on the sheet. We'll see what happens. What do they actually ask you to do with your blog?

Hi Aaron,

They send you an XLS sheet with a link address (to the website or thing they want you to talk about) and a word that you are to link that address through. You can write something that looks like an ad or you can work it into a blog on the subject. It only has to be about a paragraph or so. See my blog today entitled breast cancer surgery...on the other end (straight ad) see check this out. Once you do a couple for them and they know you are dependable, they pay you as soon as they send you the assignments and give you 2 days per post to get them done. They just sent me ten to do this evening. I have to have them done by Oct 23....and they went ahead and paid me the $50 at the same time.

So it probably wouldnt work with a sports related site like mine Cathy, or do they cover all areas?

They cover all areas and remember, it doesn't have to relate, you can do a stand alone post just for it.

Thanks for coming by!

I don't understand how we can integrate it in, far as I can tell we only have access to the actual blog text and nothing more. So will we be stealthily slipping them into the blog posts themselves?

Mmmm... But I think I'd feel like a sellout, being the rabid lefty that I am.

Ooh, blogtoprofit vs orble?
Who wants our business the most?

How direct you are to imply that orble doesn't pay enough and have suggested subverting it's recruits to bat for the opposition. Tasty indeed.

Ahmed,

Actually I find it helps when I'm at loss for what to write about, since I try to write everyday. They give you a topic...sometimes its a blog, sometimes a product.....you write a post, get paid.

Justin,

No one is wanting to take anyone away from orble...in fact, just the opposite is true. They are set up for blogging.

And Brenton, its not for everyone....for some it is actually a hassle having to produce on demand. It has just become a bit of a staple for me lately...you know, paying my electric bill and water bill, thought I'd share it.

Cathy I appreciate this post of yours but I was wondering what the Orble staff thinks about this?

I don't know, but there are actually multiple posts about this topic here giving links, so I guess its okay. Actually it was another post by someone here that made me realize one could make money blogging. I thought we were all simply poor, passionate people just wanting to be heard.

Thanks for dropping by

Hi Vixter. Paypal is easy...just go to paypal.com and sign up. I'm with you, I'll write about anyone or anything. Nothing to be cautious of that I know. Good luck! Thanks for dropping by.

I think such programmes are a very bad idea and they will probably be banned from Orble because of the damage they cause to the community.

Isn't this like the opposition or something?

Geez, I'm sorry...not trying to start an uprising or something. Though there are several posts on Orble that give links to things like blogitive, etc.

But, even after reading Jon's additional comments, I am still not clear. Is it against the rules to write a post for someone and have a link to them? How do you know whose being paid and who isn't? Is there a rule? Maybe one could make a rule that if someone is writing something like this, they have to mark it as an ad or something. How can we weed these things out, when there are those of us who part of the function of our blog is to review and report?

I just visited a site writing about how good a particular car is...and of course there is a link. Is he being paid or is he reviewing and reporting? I'm not trying to be a rebel...I appreciate and enjoy Orble immensly...I just want to make sure that I stay within the guidelines (but not alone).

Thanks Jon

I don't mind eithe rway, but thus far I think google ads should be the only thing used.

If your going to make money off your blog worth counting then it will be enough to make the money off the google ads alone, everything else doesn't really give you that much more benefit
