Here is another way for earning money blogging that I use quite frequently. InPostLinks is another blogger / advertiser marketplace from the Izea family.
InPostLInks comes from the Izea family, the same as PayPerPost. But, they are quite separately different.
For a start, InPostLinks does not just accept any blog. You have to have a blog that has at least 20 content posts, spread out over at least the last 90 days. Your blog will be reviewed by their support team, who will reject it if it is obviously just their to make money. They want quality blogs.
Earning Money
This is easier said than done! You must keep logging onto the system and looking to see if any opportunities have appeared that you are eligible for. If there are any, you reserve a slot and are given a link.
You then write a post about this link. Anything will do, as long as it is on the theme of the provided link, but it must not review the website in the link. You are expected to write about 200 words, although quite often posts as short as 160 words are about all I can manage and they are accepted.
You can submit as many established blogs as you like and can take up to 4 opps per day per blog. Once you have completed an opp in 1 blog, your account is then benched for that opp (you cannot take the same opp in another eligible blog).
How You Are Paid
Submit a link to the post, the post title and tick the terms box. The post is later approved and then 30 days later the whole fee for that post is automatically transferred straight to your PayPal account. No minimum fees, even if it is a $0.50 post it is sent on the 30 day mark and you don’t pay any fees.
Who Is It Suitable For?
Bloggers with established blogs (90 days plus) with some PageRank (ideally PR2 plus seem to get most ops) running blogs that are genuine content blogs.
The Disadvantages
The only way to get ops is by logging on throughout the day and reserving one the moment it appears. One day I tried to reserve over 20 consecutive different ops and between seeing they were available and hitting the reserve button, other people beat me to it. Very frustrating.
The other problem is the price. Considering you are expected to write around 200 words, I’ve seen offers for PR3 blogs as low as $0.50 and even higher PR requests in very niche areas for next to nothing. The payments the advertisers are offering can be very low. If you are lucky, you might grab a $5.50 task for a PR3 blog, but these don’t appear often.
So with the bun fight to get work and the low prices that exist on a lot of it, it is not my favourite system.
Summary
The lower prices and the fight to get opps plus the account benching mean that the potential earnings are far lower than through its sister PayPerPost, but it is very easy to work with as there are no individual post requirements every time you do an opp.
Low PR blogs are going to get next to nothing in InPostLinks and new blogs / spammy blogs / those just for money are not going to be accepted, so there is a good quality control. If you are none of these, then you can sign up and logon each night to see if there is anything there for you.
Well worth joining, even if you are only earning $50 per month.
