Sell your blog content to SCOOPT.

I read somewhere about a new way of selling your blog content to Scoopt.

The method seems to be simple where no direct selling is required.
Just register yourself in their website, confirm your email, log in and add your blogs in your profile from the members’ area.

When you have done that, the system directs you to another page from where you are asked to copy a HTML code which turns to be for a small button.



This you insert in your blog. Scoopt’s team of editors will review your blog content and if they like it, they may decide to purchase. Scoopt will negotiate the price on your behalf.

There is also a referral commission offered. If you refer a friend to Scoopt, they will pay you 10% commission whenever they sell one of their pictures or video; a sort of commercial agent for your blog.

ScooptWords is working with Creative Commons to help you license your blog for both commercial and non-commercial use. So they recommend you to display both the ScooptWords button and the Creative Commons button.

They say that if you have a ScooptWords button prominently displayed on your blog and somebody copies your words for commercial use, they will fight for payment.

Yesterday, I stumbled on to a great website that offers money to place a text link of one of their clients’ in your blog.

I repeat mate, it is only a static html link; no graphics or java script. You are paid just to place a link and let it remain there till the contract period ends.

No pay per click or pay per impression criteria.You are paid instantly though paypal the moment the link is live.All of the links and related sites are to reputable finance web pages, with no illegal or obscene content.

Money4Blogs is run by Mike Day of Endsleigh Insurance, a UK based insurance company. The text links they buy are used to promote Endsleigh and other websites owned by The Endsleigh Group.

Acknowledgement: I was just offered $100 Read the full article here.

There are readers waiting to read your blog.

I think so far I have not touched this blog traffic exchanges.

I am a firm believer in the effectiveness of manual traffic exchanges.

Traffic exchanges is a sure fire way to get more readers to your blog.
The two most popular blog traffic exchanges that come to my mind are Blog Explosion and Blogazoo.


It doesn't require any money to join traffic exchanges and the the ork is very easy and fun too.

It works like this:
You sign up and add your blog to their network of blogs.
Then you log in and view others blogs by choosing the category you are interested in.
You are given some points to view others' blog and these points are then redeemed automatically by giving 'views' to your blog by other members of this traffic exchange site.

I am sure there may be other such free services and I will update my blog as and when I find.

Reuters has tied up with Pluck’s BlogBurst

For passionate internet marketers, the quest for new ways to attract visitors will never wane.

I do not consider myself as a passionate internet marketer but a passionate blogger.

I just simply derive immense pleasure when I learn something new and share it immediately.

So, I am sharing with you today a new method to increase your blog’s reach and readership by making your blog available to BlogBurst’s network of publishers.

To gain entry in to the publishers’ network, you need to submit your blog but only if it meets BlogBurst’s criteria.

Once you're accepted into the BlogBurst network, you are asked keep blogging as usual. When one of the publishers picks up your content, you'll reach a whole new audience — and your byline link will drive traffic to your blog.

I read a report in quick online tips that Reuters, one of the world’s largest providers of syndicated news, has tied up with Pluck’s BlogBurst, to help syndicate third-party blog content as part of Reuters news and information service.

I feel this a fantastic opportunity for our blogs to get international exposure via Reuters media partners worldwide.

Blogburst is reporting that on Reuters alone they are recording roughly one million headline impressions a day and post views of blog posts have more than doubled since Reuters started syndicating.

What is a Blogroll?

In most of the blogs you might have seen a link title ‘BlogRoll’ under which there are several links to other blogs.

By this way a blog owner has indicated that he is reading those blogs. This is also an opportunity to exchange links with those blogs he has mentioned under Blogroll.

This blogroll can be created by engaging the services of a professional link manager.

There are quite a few link managers but you must exercise caution while using a link manager.

A sudden burst of incoming links to your blog will make the search engine suspicious.

Paid to blog.

When I was going through the ‘blogging’ sub forum at the digital point,
I came across another opportunity to earn money from blogs.

The site is Review me.

If you have a blog with good PR and traffic, you can submit it to them to be accepted in to their network of bloggers.Once accepted, the first assignment you will be asked to do is to write a review about them.

Then advertisers that are registered with reviewme.com will view your blog and display a request to you to write a blog post about their products or services.Depending upon your blog’s status, you will be paid anything between $20 to $200 per blog post.Good rate per blog post really.

So, go ahead and give it a try.
