Another Opportunity for Bloggers to Make Money?

You've probably heard of PayPerPost by now. It's the advertising model that has been fostering a love/hate relationship with the blogosphere for about a year now. No matter what you think of the service it does provide an interesting service - at the end of any approved PayPerPost sponsored post the Advertiser gets their buzz and the Blogger gets paid.

Responsible bloggers, bloggers who are willing to write honest reviews that can benefit their readers, can see some good income from a service like this. The hardest part, though, can really be finding something that fits your blog's niche. I've been a member of PayPerPost for about a year now and haven't found many offers that fit my criteria - until today.

Recently PayPerPost started offering a new service for its bloggers. This service, which offers to build blog traffic for members, also doubles as an affiliate service. The concept is pretty straight forward, you include a button that asks readers to "review this post" on every post page. For every person that signs up with PayPerPost and completes the offer you receive $7.50. The new PayPerPost member also receives $7.50 for their review!

Not only do you receive money for bringing people into PayPerPost you also get the added bonus of a new link in someone else's blog - payed for by PayPerPost.

I'm really intrigued by this idea, so much so that I've added the buttons to the bottom of my posts to see what kind of traffic they generate. Whether it works out or not it's definitely an interesting method of creating buzz for both the company and the blogger. I'm curious to see how it plays out.
