The truth about paid blogging
No this is not some reveal of a scam but a forewarning to people who are interested in paid blogging. There are going to be times where you will not get paid for the work you do. I have had this happen twice this month. Apparently my blog did not talk enough about a category that the advertiser wanted. I did talk about it, just not 20 times that week.
People are picky and you need to remember that when you get into this. I understood there issue, and I rewrote the post a little and removed all but one link, the sites were still helpful to my blog readers, I try to make sure of that.
I’ll just let it go and keep moving. My advice to people who are just starting out in the paid blogging world is to really look at you site and pick categories that the site does fit, but be open to other opinions of your site. I thought mine fit into the category, but maybe it doesn’t? I still make good money doing this so I won’t be stopping just because someone doesn’t agree that my site falls into a category. I will take there opinion into consideration and go from there.

This was just for one post. They have paid me for my other things and I have made well over $1000 with them.
Yes I have been slapped by Google, My PR on the two blogs I do paid posting on are 0, but I have made more money since I got slapped then I did before that so I’m not worried.
Also, Many of these paid blogging sites are moving away from using PR anyway so it really doesn’t matter if they do it, unless you use other ways to make money.
