Blog Advertising - Get Paid to BlogThis is another one of the blog advertising networks where bloggers can earn some money by reviewing their favorite products and services.

Smorty is one of the few paid blogging networks that I have worked with and would like to share my experiences and observations that I have made in due course of time.

Smorty might not be as popular as some other paid blogging networks but can provide one with a decent number of opportunities in paid reviews.

The requirements:

* Your blog should be indexed in the SEs and should be atleast 3 months old

* You should have an archive with atleast 2 post a week ratio

* The usual, no hate, adult, kind of blogs.

Something that everyone would like to know

How does my page rank affect my income?
Smorty has a unique blogger ranking system. There are two factors affecting your income, firstly, if you have a higher Google Page Rank you will be offered higher paying campaigns as well as the lower paid campaigns. This will start at $6 and go up to around $60 for some campaigns. Secondly, Smorty’s calculates it’s own smart score system, it’s created by combining the following factors 1) Googles PageRank, 2) Alexa Rankings, 3) Return rate of given tasks 4) Approval/Decline ratio of completed tasks and 5) Number of completed tasks. If you have a higher Smorty score, you are more likely to receive more campaign offers and more higher priced campaigns. You can earn up to even $100 per article on some occasions.

At the moment Smorty might not be pouring with opportunities but I have made $5 - $20 per week with my lesser blogs (I guess if you are not lazy like me and check the opportunities more frequently you can make more).

But nevertheless having a decent PR help. (For me a decent PR would be starting at a PR3)

But don’t worry, for one thing I can guarantee is that as soon as you are approved you will have atleast three opportunities worth a total of $18 USD.

Also, please note that you will only see the opportunities that are available to you in your dashboard.

Some additional things to remember once you are a member
* You get paid weekly via Paypal

* No disclosure required

* You review should contain atleast 150 words and should not exceed 400 words.

So keeping with the rules, I end here. ;-)

I recommend that you join them: Sign up for Smorty

Not going to make million but a few extra bucks paid weekly sure helps.

You must have heard about Pay Per Post or you are a member already. Well if you were contemplating joining them, but were not able to sumit your blog for inclusion as you blog was not 90 days old the you can sigh with relief.

Payperpost has just today updated their TOS and have change the minimum age requirement for approving new blogs into their system.

Now a blog can participate in their scheme if they are just 30 days (1 month) old.

Minimum Blog Age. Blogs must be live for a minimum of thirty (30) days, counted from the date of the blog’s first post, with at least ten (10) pre-existing posts written in the 30 days prior to registration with the PayPerPost Marketplace.

This I guess will be a big relief for people who are new to blogging and wanted to use Pay Per Post for make an extra buck with their blogging skills.

So if you always wanted to know how to support your blogging and at the same time make money online, then this is definitely one of the best schemes out there.

For those of you who are not a part of PayPerPost, I guess this is the best time to review this paid blogging system.

Pay Per Post is one of my top three paid blogging networks.
