Bloggers Get Paid To Blog FAQ
We are currently recruiting bloggers that have quality blogs and want to earn money with them.
We get a lot of questions from people that fill out our information form so here are the most common.
Q. How often are bloggers paid?A. Every 2 weeks via PayPal.
Q. Do I have to endorse the product or service that I receive as an assignment?
A. Not necessarily - your job when completing assignments - is to relate to the assignment(s); by personal experience, personal knowledge, personal research, personal creativity etc. Unfortunately, no negative postings are allowed.
Q. I sent in my blog a few days ago and haven’t heard anything back why not?
A. More than likely your blog didn’t qualify but right now we do recieve many inquries so we may have just not gotten to your blog. We look through each blog and if meets requirements we try to contact the blog owner within 2-3 business days. This process will speed up soon with some changes we are making.
Q. What types of assignments will I receive?
A. We have advertisers in all areas of business (Real Estate, Health, Retail, Medical etc). However, you will never be asked to post about porn related websites or others that may be questionable matter.
Q. Are there a minimum or maximum number of assignments that I have to complete each week?
A. No - Multiple factors determine the number of weekly assignments that you will receive. This depends on the number of blogs that you enter into the program. The time frame in which it takes you to complete assignments that you already have. Whether or not your blog has already completed assignments in previous weeks or months for advertisers.

Hi, I already work for you guys and love it. I have recommended you not only on my blog but also to individuals. One comment I often receive is that when the person goes to http://payu2blog.com, there is no information given about how the job works. That makes people think this is a scam. This post has great information. Have you considered providing a link to it at the application site? I really think that would be a help to you.

Revka, thanks for your feed-back. We are working toward making this better for all of our bloggers. We will have some changes soon. Thanks again!

hello! i was just wondering if there is any chance you make payments through E-gold or Xoom.com? Paypal in our country is just for sending money, not receiving one. Thanks!

I have 2 questions. First I was wondering if their is an “age” requirement for blogs? My blog has only been opened for about 2 months. Second I also wanted to know if it matters if we already get paid to blog for another company? I post reviews for one right now and will be doing it for two more in another month as soon as my blog hits the 90 day mark. Thanks.

Thanks for the questions all good ones !

Mulder Scully: Regarding Payments Currently we have no plans to use anything other than paypal for our bloggers.
Sorry.

Shannon: Currently you can’t use myspace but we are coming out with programs in the near future that will allow this….stay tuned.

I was wondering how long it takes for our blogs to get approved? I know you said that new blogs are taken on a case by case basis but since mine is over 2 months old I wonder if mine is still considered new? I submitted mine two days ago and was just wondering how long it will take to find out. Thank you.
Thanks,
Tony

I just sent my application and can’t wait for the response. My blog is mainly about writing but am gearing to change that as of this month to fit various topics, from teens, caring for your parents, to dating. So my question is this:
will the fact that right now my site is for writers be a minus for your decision?
Thanks.
Lea
Lea,
We will be looking at all apps Monday.
Thanks!

Is there a minimum page ranking or alexa ranking to qualify?
No if they have a PR they will usually work but if not we have some other things we look for.

I just got started writing posts today and first I’d like to thank you for approving my blog! Writing each post is easy and fun — the main challenge I have found so far is trying to make a topic somehow relative to my life — and the topic in question is industrial power supply repair. Boy, did I have to think hard about that one! How does this relate to ME?
But guess what, I found the answer and wrote the post!
Thanks, Heath and Tony, for this blogging opportunity.

Have just found your site and like the look of it. I may well submit my blogs for consideration.
I do have a bit of an issue about disclosure of payment, though. I’d prefer to do this because the whole attraction of blogging is that you can say what you truly think; it’s one of the most honest forms of expression there is.
If I was receiving money to write something and not ‘fessing up I’d feel I was dissembling a little. (I understand the requirement that paid posts must not be negative, however. If I couldn’t find something good to say about a product or service I wouldn’t apply to post on it.)
So, can a blogger disclose that he or she is writing a paid review at the bottom of the post? And does doing this make other advertisers less likely to hire that blogger to write subsequent reviews?
Any info you could give me on this would be much appreciated.
April 24th, 2007 at 5:19 pm
However you want to do it is fine Matt,we have many bloggers that label them as sponsored and thats just fine with us, After all it is your blog
We just do not require it.
April 25th, 2007 at 5:46 am
Great. Thanks for the info.
May 6th, 2007 at 12:40 am
Thanks for the info, hope to be able to post soon.
cheers

Trish Hi,
Banners can be found here :
http://www.payu2blog.com/banner.htm
Don’t forget we do a drawing every week and all you have to do qualify is be in our network and have our banner on your blog….
May 12th, 2007 at 2:02 am
This looks good - just a couple of questions:
1) I’m based in Spain - does that make any difference?
2) I want to start my blog - but who do you recommend for a complete novice like myself (have been looking at VOX.com)?
Cheers,
CB.
I don’t think where you are matters Chirs9
If your writing is sound and you have a blog that qualifies and you can write about a variety of topics, would be the important items, with the blog qualifying being the most important. If you wanted the best advice to start a new blog it would be to go and get your own hosting at your own domain and use one of the blogging systems available to host and maintain your own blog. That offers the most flexibility and the most potential for you to earn money. I will be posting some tutorials for our bloggers soon to help with this, and I am sure many of our bloggers will add to this info with their own expertise. Thanks for stopping by.
