Now sometimes the problem can be that sponsored posts on offer may not be relative to the subject matter of your blog. I was thinking about this earlier this morning and 'ding-dong' the blatantly obvious hit me. Instead of writing sponsored posts, for other people, why not do them for yourself?
What I mean by this is to have a specific post, on your blog, about a product or service for which you are an affiliate, agent or whatever. This way there is no restriction on what you write, no rules to comply with and any money made from the post is all your own.
I thought that I would try this out - an experiment if you like - to see how this would work in reality. If you look at my previous post you will see that I have written a post about a book on making money with blogging - which is what this blog is all about.
I feel that such posts, however, should still be marked in some way to indicate that they are different from a standard post. I'm going to mark these as 'Advertorials'.
So that is my idea for today. It's pretty obvious but something that may be worth thinking about. The fact is that to make money your 'products' have to be seen and sold. Perhaps advertorials could do this for you.
Good luck,
Mike.
