Getting Paid For Writing, With SocialSpark


I recently joined SocialSpark.com to earn some additional income from my blogs, apart from the earnings that I get from running Google AdSense. The concept of SocialSpark was the thing that attracted me the most – you get paid for what you love to do – blogging. However, even though the concept sounds amazing theoretically, but actually it loses it’s meaning if you are forced to write for money. That is what is happening at SocialSpark right now – because of lack of advertisers, bloggers are grabbing the very limited opportunities available, and are forced to write on topics they have no idea about. This results in disillusioned readers, who get confused about the topic/theme of your blog/website.

Take my example. I think that I would be more happy at SocialSpark if there would be more sponsored post opportunities related to my field on interest – Open Source, Technology, Internet Services, Gadgets, Movies, Rock/Metal Music and Education. However, I find that post opportunities related to these fields are very limited, obviously because the respective advertisers are either unaware of SocialSpark or are unwilling to put in their money on a relatively new network.

So this post is a request to all advertisers – come along and join SocialSpark! It has a lot of traffic and link popularity in store for you! Moreover, due to the wide variety of bloggers at SocialSpark (people with varied interests), you can look forward to get featured on websites which are related to your product and can therefore receive maximum targeted traffic.
