Munny4Hunny update

When I started this project to find out if it was possible to make money via paid to post programs on a free-hosted blog, there seemed to be an array of different schemes for paid to post revenue. As the project has progressed, it has become clear that some schemes seem to be dead-ends and others are worth sticking with.
I am really only using three schemes at the moment:

Payperpost: By far the most active source of paid postings, if you don't have PPP, you will be struggling for income.
Smorty: A slow start, but gathering pace now. They are not high payers with each post worth $6, but the real advantage here is that once your submission has been approved (usually takes a couple of days), payments are made on a weekly basis rather than monthly as with PPP.
Creamaid: This works in a different way to most of the other schemes available, but they do have a bonus referral scheme that rewards you if other bloggers participate in the same campaign via your post. Rewards with Creamaid vary in the extreme with campaigns paying anything from $1 up to $10, but you get paid ALMOST IMMEDIATELY which is a really nice feature... The bonuses get paid at 'end of the campaign' which could be anything from a week to a couple of months...
There are more schemes that are worth investigating, and some limited schemes are still worth doing just because they offer some (limited) income opportunities. Overall, these are the three that I am using, though I haven't really pursued these opportunities with any real intent for quite a while. Of course, my PR is limited and this has a bearing on which schemes are worthwhile for this blog. Hopefully in the future, the PR will build back up and the opportunities will increase accordingly -this might make other schemes viable, that I currently have no joy with.

I haven't tried Creamaid, but I am glad to hear that you get paid right away. I may have to try it!

it's often just $1 or $2 for a post, but I have done $10 before now, got two referrals for $3 and walked away with $16 from one post... (this is very much the exception NOT the rule - but you DO get paid very quickly...although there's no guarantee your post will be accepted) - it's a bit hit and miss, but I have warmed to it over time.
