In an effort to raise awareness about their services and a new marketing strategy PayPerPost has a new affiliate tool which was released with their major update last week.
What it is basically is a line of code that places a badge which reads “Get Paid to Review My Post” and when another blogger clicks on that badge they are taken to the payperpost site where they sign up with ppp and a special opportunity is created just for them to review your particular post for $7.50.
Upon acceptance and completion of the post $7.50 is paid to you as well for referring someone new to their ad network.
The badge can be set to appear at the bottom of every post you write so there are more opportunities for new prospective bloggers who are looking to generate an extra source of income online. Some bloggers may like it some may not. I personally am not such a huge fan of it. I do include the payperpost affiliate button from time to time in news posts that I write about making money online and stuff and I think that affiliate tool is better suited for my blog.
Other bloggers might prefer to have the badge appear on their blogs more often, rather than a random affiliate link. It is truly up to the bloggers preference. There are no requirements here to have that badge if they are a part of the network.
Overall PPP is definitely trying to become the “go to” place on the web for advertisers to promote their products on the blogosphere. This affiliate tool will definitely help them gain more bloggers into their network purely as it raises intrigue.
What do you think would you as a blog reader like to see that badge on blogs you regularly read? or would it affect your readership loyalty to a blog?
This post has been sponsored by ppp, but I have not let it skew my opinion – I prefer their other affiliate tool to this one.

This is interesting because as a blogger you get a link from the review post also. So hopefully, you get a good review and a link, and your reader gets $7.50. Sounds like a win win.

I just went to their site and now I’m confused. I get $7.50 for the sign up only. So if this person reviews multiple posts on my blog I only get $7.50.
However, is this person getting $7.50 for each review like this, because once this person does one review, he’s signed up. How can he do another review for another page?

I think if you review each post you get paid $7.50 and the blogger who’s post you reviewed gets $7.50. Now obviously a blogger wouldn’t be expected to review all the posts in a said blog as I’m pretty sure they have an internal cut off limit for it…probably?
Plus would any blogger seriously just want to set up a blog of reviewing other people’s posts?
Also according to PPP TOS you need to have at least 1 NON paid post in between paid posts you accept from their marketplace.
