Sometimes I feel envy with those bloggers from other countries because they can really maximize their earning potential by joining third party advertising services similar to PayPerPost. We the Philippine-based bloggers can still join the PayPerPost but then we can’t receive our income because our PayPal account is a send-only one.

Just take a look at Kumiko. Although she’s banned from Adsense but then she’s still making money online by writing review of products offered at the PayPerPost. Currently, Kumiko earned $1037.00 through her blog and it’s the PayPerPost that got the higher percentage of this earning.

Actually, PayPerPost bloggers are not earning only from ad campaign made by advertisers at the PayPerPost but they’re also earning huge amount from PayPerPost Direct.

The PayPerPost Direct is similar to ReviewMe Market Place where bloggers will receive direct offers from advertisers.  However, based on the review made by Kumiko, PayPerPost has no market place where your blog is advertised, compared to ReviewMe MarketPlace blogs are given the chance to be advertised there. But the good thing with the PayPerPost is that they’re only charging 10%, much lower compared to ReviewMe which is charging us 50% of the price of the review.

I am already member of the ReviewMe and already earning from it. But it seems that I can’t really earned much from it because there are only few review offers. Well, you’ll not be surprised if you’ll only see few offers at the ReviewMe campaign because ReviewMe got only few advertisers and few bloggers as well.

Just consider this report of VentureBeat:

Some five to seven percent of PayPerPost’s users dropped the service after that change, but these were replaced by ten times as many people who welcomed the change — both advertisers and bloggers, said Ted Murphy, chief executive officer of PayPerPost.

ReviewMe is a competitor. That company’s latest numbers suggested it had 750 posts, compared to PayPerPost’s 7,500 posts around the same time, according to Murphy. That’s why he’s taking so much cash: “We intend to keep it that way,” he tells VentureBeat.

In other words, the only chance for us to earn much through the sponsored posts, is by participating the PayPerPost and other similar companies like Blogitive, etc.
