I joined SocialSpark!
I recently joined SocialSpark, another paid blogging website. This one is a little different however. It is more focused on creating a community rather than cut and dry paid posting.
At SocialSpark you can meet other bloggers and advertisers on a more personal level. It’s good for bloggers because it creates great opportunities to build traffic and get great networking. You can view other’s profiles, read their blogs and give them props to boost their profile. Advertisers can hand pick blogs for their opportunities, getting better traffic and
There are three kinds of oppourunities on SocialSpark: sponsored posts, blog sponsored and sparks. Sponsored posts work like any other, the advertiser states what they want and the blogger fulfills the requirements. Blog sponsorship is when an advertiser pays a blogger to display some form of advertisement on their blog; a pay per day thing. The last are sparks, these are free opportunities that give inspiration to bloggers (and advertisers) for posts.
Also, SocialSpark has a unique code of ethics. There is the 100% Audit-able In-Post Disclosure, where you have to have a disclosure badge in your posts. Then the 100% Transparencey, everyone can see who you’re working with and on what. Also there is 100% Real Opinions, you can write whatever you want based on the advertiser’s conditions. Lastly, 100% Search Engine Friendly, where every link contains “no-follow” so as not to hurt search engine rankings.
The only minor problem I have had is that this opportunity was approved at midnight and I woke up at 10AM giving me only 2 hours to work on this. I’m not sure if it was unique to me getting approved at midnight or if that’s how the system is set up. I woke up and was like “Yay! I was approved! Oh wait, what time was it approved? Damn!”
