One of the more friendly bloggers in my niche told me about a new paid links site called LinkWorth last month so I hopped over there and registered this blog. Linkworth looks promising although I found it hard to work out how to get the best from the site at first. Even though I have been writing paid blog posts for almost a year, the Linkworth dashboard was hard to understand and I simply registered the blog and left it alone. Lately I noticed other bloggers talking about the number of paid posts they are receiving from Linkworth so I decided to have another look at the site’s possibilities.

The company is new, but they have a lot of ideas that are being included on the site. The way it works is that you register your blog or blogs at linkworth, and wait for paid opportunities. But it goes a lot further - there are tools to help you optimise your blog, for example a Meta Tag generator, Keyword Density checker, Search Engine Position and a Tool that shows your inbound and outbound links. Unlike some other sites, Linkworth also has a tool helps you set the price to charge for links from your site. I like this - unlike there sites, where the linking fee process seems to be completely arbitrary.

Yesterday I got an email from the owners of a new ‘paid to post’ site that promises to pay bloggers the whole of the fee paid by an advertiser for a review of their website. You may not be aware that other ‘paid to blog’ sites that offer advertisers the chance to promote their sites on members’ blogs charge as much as 35 per cent for brokering the deal. Read more »

I have been having a look at my paid to post earnings for the month of June, and there are some changes in the top paying sites that are quite surprising. I had plenty of time to check my earnings as the paid to post opportunities have been thin on the ground ever since the Fourth of July holiday in the States. Read more »

Some of the paid to post sites where I am registered have been a little quiet today, either they have had no advertisers, or the opportunities have been very low paying. So I had a little surf around and I was surprised to find a site that is new to me. It is called Bloggerwave, I registered and submitted two blogs and I was pleasantly surprised to get a notification of my blog being accepted within two hours. This is my first post for Bloggerwave, and I look forward to plenty of opps.

I have decided I have no option - my blogs will have to be moved from Blogger. You may recall that I moved Kevin the Collie’s blog on to his own domain a couple of months ago. We are still using a blogger template - I had spent some getting a three column template just right and I wanted to keep it. Although we wanted to host the Blogger template on our web hosting servers (in whom I have the utmost faith) it has been problematic. Every time I attempt to change the blog publishing options, the blog ‘cannot be found’. Then I discovered yesterday that Blogger went down completely for more than three hours, just at the time when one of the paid to blog services visited the blog to approve it. I am really worried about the changeover process and I am doing plenty of searches to try and make the blog move this weekend while the blog traffic is lower.

Pay Per Post recently hooked up with a Postie on the this side of the pond for a trivia style version of the Postie Patrol. Visit famous London landmarks and learn a thing or two about England’s history. The winning paid to post blogger walked away with £500, not bad for a morning’s sightseeing.
