Why I prefer to write for Pay Per Post
This is not a sponsored review. I am receiving not money on this post. But I feel the need to explain why I choose to write paid blogs with Pay Per Post.
I use to write for Smorty. For a long time actually. And they paid "alright". Nothing great and the opps were inconsistent. But they were super easy. I wrote for them from about December 2006 till just very recently.
When I initally started writing for them (and we all know the only REAL reason I blog is to make the tiny extra bit of money I do make from it, secondly to inform long distance friends what I'm up to), I was writing from South Africa. And I was on my ex-boyfriends site. He owned the site. When we broke up, well, I lost my site (and rightfully so - why should he continue to pay for a site and let me use it when we couldn't even stand to be in the same country anymore!).
So I stopped blogging and my posts were gone. I don't have issue here.
Where I do have issue is when I started blogging for Smorty again this past March. I bloged about $30 worth of posts for them and was not paid. Why? Because the posts from 6 months prior or longer were gone. And I owed them $60. they would not pay me my new money until I paid them back $60. Their posts had been up for at least 3 months each, much longer in many cases. And I couldn't re-post those posts. They were gone.
Nothing could be done. Post for Smorty must remain up forever.
and ever.
So I don't blog for them anymore. And I dont advocate anyone blogging for them.
Pay Per Post however are mich nicer and pay you even if they approved your request incorrectly. Very nice PPP.
you got my vote.
