Do you do sponsored post or sponsored reviews? If you do (or plan to), this review of Blog Paycheck by Gobala Krishnan will shed some light on the topic. Even if you have never heard of such stuff, you should read this to add more options to your blogging income. After all, as Gobala says you can make anywhere between $5 - $200 for each blog post you write.

So lets get on with the review of Blog Paycheck, which you can find here.

Gobala is one of the more “unorthodox” bloggers you can find, and from his site at ProfitBlogger.com he has already released several e-book guides on making money from Google AdSense and affiliate marketing. However, Blog Paycheck talks about something completely different.

When the blogosphere exploded in 2006/07, thousands of blogs were being created every single day, with overworked individuals hoping to cash in on the trend and be a “work-at-home blogger”. The hype was high, but the problem was that most bloggers wanted to get paid immediately.

The blogosphere responded to these needs, with companies like PayPerPost.com leading the paid-to-blog industry. Early on, blogging for the purposes of making money received a lot of criticism from big-name bloggers, but eventually people started accepting paid blogging as a viable, honest way to make a living online.

Blog Paycheck is well-written and is suitable for both newbies and non-newbies (is there such a word?). Of course you can just go to PayPerPost.com right now and sign-up with them without ever having to read it, but I found that there are tons of great information in here that will help you make more money with less time and effort.

How much can you realistically expect to make from paid blogging?

Normally, you can earn a few hundred dollars a month by writing 1-2 blog posts a day. Since these blog posts aren’t too long and all the information is already provided, it’s pretty easy to do that. Once your blog picks up more traffic, it gets re-evaluated and you can start charging more for writing the exact same content.

The leaders in the paid blogging industry make a few thousands dollars a month, enough to make a comfortable full-time income on the Internet. Plus, they are free to work whenever they want, wherever they want. This is why paid blogging is so appealing - with not much skills or technical knowledge, any ordinary person can make money from blogs right from the start.

The guide explains how paid blogging works, the do’s and dont’s, and gives you more than 20 different paid blogging sites you can sign-up with. It also explains the different type of content and model each site uses - for example some of those sites only do “reviews” or “buzz” type of articles. It’s important to understand that if you want to make a great income from paid blogging, you’ll need to sign-up with more than just one site.

The guide also comes with some pretty decent WordPress themes that you can use with your blog to manage your content.

Overall, at the low price, I think Blog Paycheck is a great investment for anyone who wants to add more flexibility to their online income. You can click here to get more information on Blog Paycheck by Gobala Krishnan (a.k.a The Profit Blogger).

Some of you may already know this - you can get paid to write your blog posts. It’s called “paid blogging” or “sponsored blogging” -  sometimes even referred to as “paid reviews” - but it all works the same way.

So how does paid blogging work? How can you get paid from Fortune 500 companies and even small businesses to write about their product, service or event?

When the blogosphere exploded in 2006/07, thousands of blogs were being created every single day, with overworked individuals hoping to cash in on the trend and be a “work-at-home blogger”. The hype was high, but the problem was that most bloggers wanted to get paid immediately.

Early on, blogging for the purposes of making money received a lot of criticism from big-name bloggers, but eventually people started accepting paid blogging as a viable, honest way to make a living online.

Down the road, more paid blogging companies sprung up, which includes ReviewMe.com and also SponsoredReviews.com - taking the stand of offering “honest” and “unbiased” reviews. At the moment there are no fewer than 20 paid blogging companies you can sign-up with and make money from.

When you sign-up for a company, you’re required to submit your blog details, so make sure you have a blog up and running with at least 30 days worth of acceptable content. After you’ve submitted your details, your blog will be reviewed and approved.

Then, you can search the company’s marketplace for “opportunities”, which are basically listings create by businesses who want you to blog about their product or service. When you find a suitable opportunity, you can use the information provided (take note of the requirements too) and blog about it. When you’re done, report back to the listing and you get paid whatever amount of money the advertiser has promised.

Now of course, the companies that offer these paid blogging services also take their cut, which is anywhere from 30-50%. The rest is paid to you after you reach a certain payout limit.
