That is a major factor in buying reviews!

Thanks for that tidbit Angie – I had no idea LoudLaunch could go so low. As I said in the article, after seeing the prices they locked my blogs into (as well as the campaigns being posted), I quickly determined LoudLaunch was not my cup of tea.

$5 for an article that could take 30-60 minutes to write and will include (more often than not) at least 3 lifetime rel=”follow” links to a domain just doesn’t seem worth it.

Many people don’t take the SEO ramifications into account when accepting these campaigns. When you write one of these articles it is expected to live on your site for as long as the site. You are essentially giving that site multiple links from your domain for the life of your domain.

Price your bids accordingly – their not only paying for your time in writing those 300 words. Their also paying for the infamous link love.

You may want to mention that LoudLaunch can pay as little as $5 per.

Paid posts can be great for revenue and for adding content for your blog. I fyou are choosy in the reviews you accept, it is a win-win situation 100% of the time.

A lot of the pay per post services put your blog into categories when you sign up. This ensures that you get only offers that are on topic. You also have the choice to reject any offers that you are not comfortable doing.

@JoLynn

There are some campaigns which focus on the health & fitness market, but like many of the advertising campaigns within this niche – a lot of them are spammy.

I would definitely check out SponsoredReviews – they should have something that fits your needs (without abandoning your readers).

Aren’t these pretty much more suited to blogs about blogging or IT I don’t know that I would ever use them on my current blog because I don’t see how I could fit them in a remain on the topic of health and fitness. Perhaps I haven’t spent enough time researching them, though.

I agree Ed – never accept some off the wall offer that is not relevant to your niche and something your readers will be interested in.

Primarily, I use Paid Reviews in the same way I use Google Reader – a way to find article ideas. It just so happens, I get for those particular articles.

Determining a price per article is based off of various things – a topic I plan to go into more detail with in a future post.
