Smorty Review

I wanted to mention Smorty in this post (no it's not a paid post); the reason for my post is they have finally approved my first batch of paid blog posts. Meaning the money has arrived in my paypal account.

For those that don't know what Smorty is; it's a 'pay for post' service. As a blogger you can choose to discuss topics and advertisers on your blog that are recommended to you by Smorty. As the 'middleman' Smorty link you the blogger with the willing advertiser and for your trouble, you get paid a few dollars.

I joined Smorty a month or so ago and signed up with my complete blogroll. I have 7 blogs that were approved by the Smorty team, so when a certain product or pay for post is available from Smorty I am able to reap more financial benefits having multiple blogs. The average advertisement pays around 6 dollars for posting a description about it on your blog - however if the advertisement is able to be displayed across all 'niches' the multiplication factor kicks in and you can be receiving 50 dollars less than 30 minutes work. (The payout or approval process from Smorty can take up to 30 days)

It's a great concept and now that I have been successfully paid out by Smorty, I was willing to discuss the service here on my blog.

The key to succeeding with Smorty is not just having multiple blogs to multiply your earnings, but accepting advertiser requests as they arrive in your inbox. The longer you wait, the more chance of blogging competitors stealing the limited post opportunities.

So check Smorty out, it's worth a look and doesn't require you to jump through hoops like 'PayPerPost' do.
