Have you ever wanted to really get your blog “out there”? Well, if you’re anything like me you’ve written hundreds of posts on various websites over the years and never really got the traction and backlinks that you needed. What do I mean by this? Ask yourself; how many articles or posts have I written on my own blog or on other peoples blogs? If the answer is “Heaps, loads, tons etc…” then the next question is have you ever been paid for it? Did your ezine writing get you inundated with backlinks? Your answer is probably the same as mine… no. My website sat there for years with all my info on it but I never once got paid by someone else to add content to my site.
I’ve only recently found out about the power of content. I kept hearing “content is king” and didn’t really pay enough attention to it. That was until I got a web design project and needed to write content for it. Unfortunately it was in a field that I had never written about before and had no experience with. So my writing skills weren’t up to the task. We had to outsource the content writing and had to deal with writers whose first language was not English. So now I was paying someone else to add content to a website.
I came across SocialSpark.com by accident when looking for something else on the net (like we all do). And here I have a program that allows advertisers to pay me to advertise on my blog and will even pay me for content writing. Sounds like a win-win to me! Whats the catch? Well thats yet to be seen since I’ve only just joined. But I jave to say that the signup process was incredibly easy. It took less than a minute and here I am writing this blog post.
I’d be interested to hear from any readers who have come across SocialSpark before. I will do another post next month to let you know how it goes.
