Getting paid to blog

Are you interested in making money with your blog?

A growing number of companies are now paying bloggers to write reviews about their products and services and then post the reviews on their blogs. Sound like fun?

Of course it does. Who wouldn’t want to get paid to write about things that interest them? (Aside from my husband who won’t write no matter what the topic is)

How does it work? The whole process is pretty simple. After registering with one of the companies below, you search through a list of opportunities, post a review on your blog, have the review approved and then wait to get paid. Earnings for posts range anywhere from $2 to $200 for reviews.

PayPerPost seems to be the most popular system and has been in business since 2006. They pay between $2 and $20 per post, with a maximum of 2 reviews per day. In order to join (which is free), your blog must be at least 90 days old.

Blogsvertise is another popular choice, paying bloggers between $4 and $25 per post. Blogs that are less than 30 days old may be accepted, but will be put on a probation status with a lower pay rate ($2 per post).

Both companies send payments through PayPal.

I haven’t yet ventured into this arena, but may in the future for one of my other blogs. Assuming days are extended by at least another hour.
