Getting paid to bloog?

I have just signed up with Blogsvertise, who I’m sure have got great Google PageRank, because which personal blooger doesn’t want to be paid for their work (even if it isn’t a helluva lot, but anything is nice, as I’ve learned)? I’m going to experiment with this form of freelancing, since I’ve got time on my hands. And their policy is that they will not require writers to say only good things about their advertisers (another thing I’m familiar with, the media sucks sometimes). So if anyone wants to make ten bucks here and there, give registering with Blogsvertise a go — it can’t hurt. Gives me bloog fodder as well.

(I’d been approached by an agency that places models and actors and whatnot, and I thought it would be entertaining and great bloog fodder, but they wanted me to tell them why I should be selected to go for their SIX WEEK “grooming and deportment course”, and I’m about as groomed and, er, deported as I want to be, plus I’m too old to kiss their arse. So trying to bloog for cash it is.)

If I ever make a decent amount of money from blooging, I will know that paid blooging has entered the mainstream for real.

(This is a sample post about Blogsvertise that they ask us to post in order to make sure we understand the concept.)
