My Opinion Counts

There is a good review about PayPerPost over at Publisher Spot. It outlines the company I work for, PayPerPost. I have learned so much about being a blogger by talking with other Posties, (people who write for PayPerPost). They are the nicest group of people who have helped me fix a broken blog more than once. We have grown as a community and rally together as we strive to help PayPerPost become the biggest and best venue for advertisers to get the word out about their service and/or product.

Posties come from all walks of life. That aspect gives the advertiser a large group of diverse writings and different views of a product.

Posties have grown into a community of close friends who help each other with technical things and with uplifting words when one of us might be having a bad day.

There are some Posties who give PayPerPost a bad name. These are the bloggers who set up their blogs strictly for the purpose of making money. They take the $5.00 ops that require 200 words and three links. The advertisers who are only willing to pay that amount will not get a write up worth their time and money. The bloggers who write those posts are usually not the bloggers you would want representing your product.

There are many good bloggers who have a large audience reading their blogs. Their blogs are not full of paid posts. They actually write their blog to keep in touch with their friends and family or have a theme blog such as one on pets, etc.

My hope is that more advertisers pick up on the fact that bloggers can give their products a big boost and get readers checking out their products. These might be readers who would have never known about their products if not for a blogger like me.

We all hope that when someone puts in our blog name into a search that it comes up in the number one spot. We hope that at least it will be on the first page. There are thousands of web directories on the Internet. You can submit to one, and end up on page 10 of results, where no one will see it and you will have little if any link value. Big Web Links Directory has a new concept to help bloggers and web ecommerce sites get on that front page. On their directory you bid for placement. Instead of sorting listings by popularity, page rank, or alphabetically, the listings with Big Web Links are sorted by the bid amount. Control is maintained by bid amount. This concept works with the idea that the money invested to get a good spot will bring a bigger return because of the placement where others will see the site and use it will be the best a good bid can buy.
