Pay per post gained popularity in blogging community. It sounds like easy money. Instead of posting your opinions, you post to promote an affiliate product/service with a link form pay per post providers such as payperpost.com, then you get commissions. Sounds good? It’s insane!

A blog is supposed to be objective and reflects your true opinions. Readers are smart enough to identify what you are doing, and trash pay per post blogs because this kind of contents don’t offer much value.

That’s why Google lowered ranking significantly to whoever did post from payperpost.com. Many rank 7 sites dropped rank back 3 a few weeks after adding a Payperpost.com link. Even some much much bigger sites got punished. Lots of people complained about it, but I think Google is doing the right thing.

If you happened to have pay per link on your blog, you’d better remove it, wishing the rank will back higher. If you just want to test the effectiveness of Pay per post potentials, don’t do it with your core sites.
