Pay Per Post

My blog just got approved for Pay Per Post! I found out about PPP from from Mommies With Cents, which is a blog I check occasionally to help find money saving ideas.

Anyway, I signed up for Pay Per Post as soon as I found out about it, but they have to approve your blog before you can start using the paid opportunities, so it took a little bit for my to get my approval. Until then you can put some requests up to have your posts reviewed and such, but I didn't do any of that.

After you get approval, you can go through a list of opportunities and choose the things you'd like to get paid to blog about. Each opportunity tells you upfront how much you'll get paid and the requirements for getting your payment. Some of them have some requirements for your blog's Google rank or "Tack Score" which represents how you performed on previous PPP posts. I figure I'll find some things I would talk about anyway or things that fit into my blog style pretty easily, so I may as well try to get a little money out of blogging my random thoughts.

Any extra money I earn on my blog will go to help fund Punkin's education. We have a 529 plan that I put money in occasionally, so my Pay Per Post earnings will go straight into there. It'll be perfect!
