My renewed interest in blogging coincided with starting paid posts for PPP and a couple of others. Literally days after my first paid post, Google spanked me down to a big fat zero and all the nice $$ dried up. When they updated PR on April 30th, I expected my blog, which now has about 200 hits/day and fresh content daily, to get some PR. No dice. So I've kept up the PPP and added <A HREF="http://socialspark.com/metrics/click/post?slot_id=656&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.socialspark.com" REL="nofollow">SocialSpark</A> (another IZEA service) as well. On SocialSpark, I noticed that your blog is claimed, but not yet verified by Customer Love. You might want to keep checking back on your blogger profile and hitting "verify blog" -- it took me a couple times "hitting the button" to get my primary blog verified and to get answers back from Customer Love on why my other blogs were not yet verified.<BR/><BR/>I read Mrs. Mecomber's comment but didn't see what your blog's PR is, but if you have a nice PR, get the most out of it now, you may only have 3 months before Google updates again.<BR/><BR/>I also wanted to post a link to a cool combination of photography and clearly paid post blog that I found and enjoyed through <A HREF="http://www.blogexplosion.com/index.php?ref=RoxiticusDH" REL="nofollow">BlogExplosion</A>'s Battle of the Blogs: <A HREF="http://digitalandphotoartforsale.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">Rebecca Bridges Photography</A><BR/><BR/>Have a great night!<BR/><A HREF="http://roxiticusdh.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">Roxy</A>RoxiticusDHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05436835087657298309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4644411200688753286.post-90825037364883568272008-05-04T20:45:00.000-04:002008-05-04T20:45:00.000-04:00I love PPP!

They are a service something similar to PPP, and in two days have already made almost $100! <BR/><BR/>As far as page rank goes, I've heard that some blogs that got spanked by Google for doing paid posting have started to gain page rank again. <BR/><BR/>Just wanted to let you know that I enjoy your blog each day when I drop my card. Keep up the great work!<BR/><BR/>Shawn<BR/>www.livelaughblogg.comLive, Laugh, Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13441743838297386609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4644411200688753286.post-65151608102232396432008-05-04T17:49:00.000-04:002008-05-04T17:49:00.000-04:00I've been with PPP since October. Like you, I had ...I've been with PPP since October. Like you, I had a blogspot blog with a PR 4, and opportunities (opps) were pretty good until Google killed my PR to a 0. That was crushing, to get a 0 on a blog I'd spent 2 years on, and that had tons of backlinks and was popular. PPP opps took a nosedive. <BR/><BR/>I've since started a few new blogs (most on my own domain). The PPP experience has made me wiser at blogging and marketing. And the forum is a great place, full of wonderful bloggers and loads of help! But be prepared to lose that nice PR.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
