Social Spark Is Perfect For Pro Daddy Bloggers (and mommys too!)

Posted on April 16, 2008 - Filed Under Blogging, Fatherhood, Paid To Write | Leave a Comment

If you’re active in pretty much any online community, then you’re most likely aware of the acronym SAHM (Stay At Home Mom, for those who aren’t). But there’s a growing movement of SAHD’s (the D is for Dads) who are making their voices known as well. Although I’m still only a part-time dad I count myself among their number. Being a single stay-at-home parent (even part-time) takes some serious financial wrangling for those of us who haven’t had a large…

Experimenting With Exclusive Articles At Associated Content

Posted on January 14, 2008 - Filed Under Paid To Write | Leave a Comment

I’ve mentioned Associated Content before here at Philaahzophy, though I still need to do a full review on them. They’re a site that pays you to provide articles and I primarily use them as an additional source of revenue from my blog posts. In addition to re-publishing material they offer users the option of submitting exclusive content. I always assumed that exclusive content would receive a larger upfront payment, but never had anything I was willing to write for them without…

Is Smorty Getting Desperate?

Posted on January 11, 2008 - Filed Under Blogging, Paid To Write | 4 Comments

Part of the Smorty Series - Previous in series         

A couple days back I reported that Smorty was emailing me offers once again. Well, they emailed me two more offers today, despite my having quit and being told that I would be removed from the program for violating their (then unwritten) rules. In fact, there is still no requirement in their terms regarding the length of time a sponsored post must remain.

Don’t believe they tacked in this new rule…

Smorty Still Wants Me

Despite my quitting Smorty and their threatening to kick me out of the program because I deleted old posts that they refused to pay me for, they’re still sending me email alerts about new blogging opportunities. Apprently, Smorty is taking their cues from BlogRush, which also refuses to go away despite both my quitting and then, months later, being kicked out.

What, exactly, does it take to be removed…

PayPerPost Jumps On The Hypocrisy Bandwagon

Posted on November 27, 2007 - Filed Under Blogging, Paid To Write, SEO | Leave a Comment

The war between Google and PayPerPost continues with bloggers continuing to be caught in the middle. I recently wrote about PPP’s new RealRank alternative to Google’s PageRank and also about Google’s latest hypocrisy. Today I came across what sure smells of hypocrisy from Izea’s Founder/CEO Ted Murphy-

RealRank was conceived and introduced before any of this PR upheaval. It wasn’t introduced because people lost their rank, it was introduced to solve an advertising problem. The problem is that PR and traffic have no…

Saying Goodbye To Smorty

Posted on November 24, 2007 - Filed Under Blogging, Paid To Write | 4 Comments

Part of the Smorty Series - Previous in series         Next in series

Earlier this week I wrote about Smorty Get[ting] On My Bad Side. Well, now they’ve gone too far and it’s time for us to part ways. They have two new “messages” posted on their control panel. The first is a (not so subtle) swipe at paid blogging pioneer Izea/PayPerPost-

There have been some recent changes that Google have made with regard to sponsored postings.
Smorty would like to offer…
