I've been noticing the avaialbe posts over at payperpost. It appears that payperpost is getting real cheap. www.bloggernoob.com/payperpost-is-getting-cheap/22/
They are starting to offer blogger $0.50 for a blog post. What are your thoughts?
Would you write a post for 50 cents? I'm a big time sell out, but i have to draw the line at around $10 per paid post. 50 cents for a post is insulting even for a noobie.

yeah. I could find more change on the ground than it would take me to write a post-
yup. my sofa alone has at least 5 bucks if i digg thru it.
-
Yeah, an afternoon with a metal detector in a park would be considered lucrative!

@bloggernood...I agree what happened to Payperpost that they're going so cheap?
It must be a sign of the times.-
i can understand that time are hard. but, payperpost shouldn't have lowered the min for advertisers. It brings down the website. in my opinion, it was a terrible marketing mistake. It would be better if they had less 5 to 10 dollar posts.

That and about 4 bucks will get you a cup of Starbad's coffee. -
Wow... seriously? There aren't people out there actually accepting offers like that, are there?
I'm pretty surprised!
Do you guys make much money via payperpost? I just signed up. Is there a lot of opportunity there?
I signed up for Guru.com and elance.com awhile ago and didn't find it overly promising.-
Thoughts anybody?

i've made over $7000 with payperpost. www.bloggernoob.com/bloggernoob-a-year-of-making-money-online/14/ It used to be a good place for noobies to make a few bucks. But, not sure where they are headed now with the fifty cent posts. I think guru and elance can be promising if you are good at what you do. You will have to build up your rep in order to consistently get freelancing gigs. I actually prefer getting my own clients for design and seo.

Great post. I'll definitely look into some of the things you've been doing.
-
thanks trevor.
-
by the way - that's annoying - bumping it almosts seconds after your initial post =- please be patient. -
Haha... sure, PetLvr. I'll be more patient.

I wouldn't. You can make four or five times that, easily, and likely more like 20 times that amount, depending on where you go. Personally, I have only done ones that I can fit into the topic of my blog, and I just quit the only site through which I do them because, really, who pays for a music site or writing site? (Hint: the answer is "no one".)-
exactly. there are a lot of other paid posting sites that pay a min of 5 or 10 dollars. I just hope that others don't follow suit. it would be a damn shame for noobies to not have paid posting as an option for blog monetization.

I guess if the paid post lead to traffic directed to your own site or blog, which lead on to clicks on promotions like adsense then yes maybe, but I certainly would not do this for this amount, no way!-
50 cents doesn't even buy you have a hamburger at mickey d's when they are running promotions. no way is 50 cents ever worth writing a blog post about.

let's see ... turn an hour of work into fifty cents cold cash.
holy mackerals!
where do i sign up?
not! -
But - according to that screen image on your site .. isn't that 50cents for a "blog picture - 0 words" ?
That doesn't sound too bad - I hear pictures are a dime a dozen
(groan) -
A fifty cent post? Yeah, I'll give 'em a whole word for that! -
That is ridiculous. It is well below a penny a word. -
I write post for nothing! Im not in any of that PPP stuff. I will wait until my blogs get noticed by someone big one day and the traffic will come. -
50 cent is good starting for new blogers
-
really? you could probably make more filling out surveys.
-
-
I would do a post for free. That sounds much better than getting a .50 per post. Dont you think? -
Why would anyone pay for anything I have to say anyway?-
thats the point. they'll pay you 50 cents for something you probably wouldn't want to blog about.
-
-
Wow, that's really, really cheap! Good thing I only blog for lOvE!-
i wish i could just blog for the love of the game.

Bloggernoob,
50cents can buy half cup of coffee here.-
then image what 5 or 10 bucks can buy.
-
-
surely no one posts for $0.50, it's not even worth $0.50 to copy and paste articles let alone actually sit down to write something. -
I'd glad to see you are all drawing the line somewhere. -
everyone has a line. and 50 cents is certainly over that line
-

i make $27 on 30 minutes from A.W.$urveys.
register here :
www.AWSurveys.com/HomeMain.cfm?RefID=agung87
you will pay $4 for 1 surveys and just need 5 minutes.-
but i dont think awsurvey pays .
-
-
Pay peanuts, get monkeys. No serious writer would blog for that pittance.
-
try other things insted, gpts are nice.. send me a PM if you want some tips and other ppc, gpt sites, in 2 GPT's that i have i earn way more than that and just by doing one trick and leaving it overnight..
don't be fool with $.50.. you can make more than that -
gpt? doing one trick and leaving it overnight?
-
-
Total waste of time. Way too m,uch still relies on high PR, which gets thrown out of the window if you as much as go near ppp.-
yup. might be worth it for some noobs in the beginning, but waste of time and insulting for such a low price.
-
Yes - I lost all my page ranks thanks to PPP. And then they were offering pathetic payouts to blogs with Page Rank 0, so i left them completely.
-
-
What a bum deal.
Anyway, I write all my posts for free.
-
you've never written just to get paid?
-
-
I would write a comment or twitters msg for o.50 cents lol-
they have keywords that pay more then 50 cents on adsense.
