One popular way to make money online right now with your blog is paid posts. Many bloggers make quick money for putting up posts that are paid for. These posts could be reviews or just general posts where links are inserted pointing to an advertisers page. The money is quick and easy (Usually the same month). This type of monetization though tends to get "punished" by Google in terms of page rank. But that is a different story altogether, where this post is meant to discuss a few popular programs in which people can make money online by blogging and posting with these programs. May people are familiar with Paid Per Post and Smorty, but there are also many other similar programs that one can make money with as well.

Social Spark
Is one such program. A blog must have at least 20 posts on it and must be at least 90 days old in order for you to qualify for participation in this program. Social Spark allows you to do more than just accept paid posting jobs. It allows you the ability to socialize with other bloggers, Make friends, send private messages and communicate with other bloggers.
The market place on Social Spark has many opportunities for bloggers to make money and page rank does not seem to be a huge factor which is something many at other similar type programs have bee complaining about. Especially in light of the "spankings" that have been handed out to those who do take part in paid posts by Google in terms of Page Rank. Other Bloggers also use the market place to trade blog reviews or offer links in exchange of you reviewing their blog. (Also something you can take part in yourself as well)

Sponsored Reviews
is another program in which a blogger may make money doing paid posts. The following is directly taken from their website, which clarifies pretty clearly what the site is about.

A Sponsored Review is an article you write for an advertiser. You review their products and services and then post the review on your blog. Each advertiser has his or her own requirements (i.e. length, link info, etc.).

You write the review in your own tone, and can be as critical as needed. Constructive criticism is encouraged, but rude or hateful reviews will be declined.

We also require full-disclosure that the review is a sponsored one. You can simply state the words "Sponsored Review" or you can integrate it into the content.


Payments are made every 2 weeks if you are qualified for payment by paypal. They offer as well an affiliate or referral program which can also be used to make money with. The following is the details on the program. Again taken directly from their website,

Earn up to $175 per Advertiser and $90 Per Blogger Referred.

Payouts are based on money spent by the advertiser and money earned by the blogger. Please see the chart below for payouts. Our average advertiser spends several hundred dollars so most referrals will be worth at least $25.

Advertiser
Blogger





Amount Spent Payment
Amount Earned Payment
$1 $5
$50 $5
$100 $20
$200 $10
$1000 $50
$1000 $25
$10,000 $100
$10,000 $50

Affiliate payments are made once a month.
For acceptance into the program, your blog must be at least 3 months old and have a minimum of 10 posts that are non paid. There are other rules and factors as well but those are the main ones.

Blog Payz
Brings together advertisers and bloggers where bloggers get paid to post relevant articles or reviews for advertisers. Sign up is quick and simple as is adding a new blog. The better your page rank, the more opportunities you have with this program.

Blogsvertise
Payments are made 30 days after a review has been approved and payment is made via paypal. If your blog is new or does not have a lot of posts, you can still be accepted into the program but your blog will be put on probation where your commissions is reduced but you still qualify for open tasks or jobs. Once your blog has proven itself you can apply for full membership. If your blog is older than 30 days and has significant amount of posts then this is not an issue at all for you.

They also offer an affiliate program.
Refer new advertisers to blogsvertise and earn even more income.

Their advertiser referral program pays you 20% of what advertisers you refer spend on advertising with blogsvertise. For example if an advertiser you refer spends $500, you will receive $100 of this transaction. In order to refer new advertisers you must use a proper advertiser affiliate tracking url.

Bloggerwave
Allows you to add 5 blogs to your user account. Then once approved a list of available jobs as they become available to you will be posted in your account for acceptance. This is a newer service and thus the number of available jobs may be not as many as other similar programs.
Payments are made 30 days after a review has been accepted.

Blog To Profit
Payments are made via paypal weekly and sign up is relatively easy. As well, the adding of blogs to your account is quick and simple and approval is generally very fast. In fact within the first day of approval I had 3 pending tasks ready for review. Reviews are not necessary for this program. What I mean here is that you do not have to write a post for the advertiser as they are looking for links. You can add their link within your posts already written or written for something else. And as such they do not require you to (In fact they prefer you don't) state that the link/post is paid.
Links should stay active for at least 1 year after being accepted.

There is also a referral program.
Referrers are paid $10.00 for every referred blogger who completes the first set of tasks. All you need to do is invite fellow bloggers over to BTOP and have them fill out the referrer email field with your registered email. You will be notified through email as soon as your referred blogger completes the first task and when payment is sent your way. Referral credits are given only once per user regardless of the number of blogs.

For acceptance to the program, the blog you submit must be at least 3 months old with quality content and updated at least twice per week. There are some other guidelines but these are the most basic and main guidelines.

BlogRolled

This is not per say a paid post type program but it is offered to those who belong to the ReviewMe program as well as others. It is a simple program that pays users to put links on their blogroll. You submit your blog and then others looking for blogroll additions can ask to be added and pay you theb logger some money for that link or addition to your blogroll.


Linkworth
Linkworth is much more than a paid posting type program. This program is a good way for a blog or website with low visitor stats to start making decent money. No worry on clickthrough rates or worrying about having 1000 visitors show up each month. Have many blogs or websites ? Even better, multiply the success by however many blogs and watch your bottom line improve that many times or more.

Linkworth is a advert program that allows publishers to sell textlinks on their site. Get paid a monetary value that is agreed upon to show that advert for a month and then get paid. Regardless of how many visitors or how many times the advert is clicked. You can even set the price if you think you can fetch the value.

It is a great tool, and it accepts almost every site, assign LinkRank and You can immediately start to earn money for selling links on your site.

Many sell links for $15-40 or much more depending on traffic to the page/site.

What Other Services Do They Offer?
LinkWorth also offers Paid Blog Reviews, where you get paid to write. They also allow you to monetize by having single and multi rotating banners, In text Keywords where you can sell keywords that appear on your site or sell in text like other programs do, and Billboard style ads.
In short they offer a complete package for monetizing a website or blog. Guaranteed money at that. Most advertisers once they purchase an advertising spot from you using LinkWorth, will most often stick with you month after month. Earning you a regular paycheck that you can count on.

Referral System?
They have that too! LinkWorth pays you $50 and also a 5% recurring percentage of all activity on your referral's account. Not a bad way to monetize your website or blog! So if you are looking for an easy way to monetize your website or blog, or to add to your monetization programs, I suggest giving LinkWorth a try today! I am sure you will be glad you did.

Thank you for the comment Cristina.

Brandon- yes it is recommended to have a high Alexa ranking as many programs use this as well as Page Rank. Many programs allow the advertiser to stipulate the page rank and alexa rank they desire when looking for potential publisher sites to give the offer to.
