Seams like the subject of paid reviews will be around for some time. While I have a unique prospective on paid blogging, I think the proper place to discus the subject will be on Sage Blogger, the blog where I write about affiliate marketing and related subjects of making money online.
I do however need to thank Greg Swann and Chris Johnson for stirring up emotions associated with the subject.
While some may think that such an article may fit better on this blog, the truth is that vast majority of real estate bloggers are not looking to to monetize their blogs. However most of the visitors to my Sage Blogger come to it looking for things that will make you money on the Internet- many are them are bloggers who will consider signing up with one of the paid/sponsored reviews websites.
I will leave the readers of Go Beyond MLS with a following thought. Paid review was the worst mistake I ever made as far as blogging is concerned. If blogging is your long term goal, paid and sponsored reviews maybe prove to be very shortsighted strategy and can sometimes cost you way more in legal fees should things go awry as a result of your review.
Build a base, write what you want to write about, and move laterally in the markets and sell stuff..hard work
Long term goals can not be achieved without hard work! Thanks for stopping by.
Can you elaborate why sponsors would be a shortsight strategy? Why would it cost us legal fees?
I will be tracking this 🙂
