Bloggers for Dollars

How often are my blog stats updated?

Blog stats are updated on a Monthly basis. You will be notified if the total rank of your blog has changed, so that you can update your pricing if necessary.

How long does it take for Advertisers to approve my bids?

Advertisers are all different but you should not expect all of your bids to be answered right away. Some advertisers may take weeks or more to accept/decline bids. Some advertisers may not respond at all. It is important to understand that advertisers recieve hundreds of bids within the first few days of posting an opportunity. They will usually purchase the best value blogs first, then wait to see how the reviews look, then purchase some more. This process can go on for many weeks.

It is important to note that it is not necessary to bid on opportunities in order to earn money in SponsoredReviews. Your blog is included in our blog directory (unless you set it as private) which allows advertisers to search and purchase reviews directly from you.

How much can I earn writing reviews?

With SponsoredReviews, you set your own price. Depending on the size of your readership and the quality of your blog posts, you can earn anywhere from $10 to $1000 per review. If you are a major site, you might be able to get even more. Do not overprice your reviews else you might not get any work. Remember, there are thousands of other bloggers in our marketplace. Advertisers will choose the best blogs based on quality and on value.

How long do I need to keep the review on my site
