Payment For My Voice

Want to blog for money?
One of the places that will pay bloggers to advertise on blogs is Smorty.com
If you want to get paid for blogging, here are some things to keep in mind:
The service is absolutely free; however, you must have a blog that has been around longer than three months. You can’t be one of those hate sites or express a lot of violence or be an adult site. You need to be indexed in Google and Yahoo and you have to have been steady with your writing; at least 2 posts a week and they can’t be duplicate posts.
If you have been accepted,you may log in and start picking the “jobs” you want. The higher ranking you are on search engines, the more money you’ll make. Further, the more you write, the more points you make in Smorty and the more points you make, the more you earn per post.
Once you write your post, it can take 5 days for the advertiser to review what you’ve written. Just because you wrote it doesn’t mean you’re getting paid. The advertiser has to approve what you wrote. The posts must be 150-400 words, (the max is very hard for me--I get talky. Thankfully I have “word count"), and must be submitted by the deadline.
This is thus far the easiest and most professional of all paid to blog sites I’ve seen. You’ll have a dashboard on sign in that shows your points, how many posts you’ve accepted and written, how many have been approved, disapproved as well as how much money you’ve made. On the right hand side you’ll see all the available posts to write along with how much you’ll be paid to write it. You may do one at a time. Once you’ve submitted a finished post, you can grab another one.
You won’t become rich off of this but if it can make a car or insurance payment each month, it certainly is worth the effort.
