Advertising On Adgitize Review

I am constantly looking into cost effective ways to market my blogs and sites. When I found out about Adgitize, I joined the network with 2 of my blogs and traffic did increase a little while I also enjoyed finding some very interesting blogs as well. I explored the site and found out that advertising square ads (125×125) through the network is relatively cheap, so I thought of giving it a try.

Their advertising rates are as follows:

USD 7.00 – 7 Day Square Banner Ad

USD 10.00 – 14 Day Square Banner Ad

USD 14.00 – One Month Square Banner Ad

USD 36.00 – Page Peel Ad

As you can see it is reasonably priced, especially for the one month duration. The question then lies in exactly how effective will the advertising be. So I placed an ad back in early February for a brand new webmaster content aggregator site of mine for one month duration. After completion, I was very happy with the results but decided to try again by advertising 2 blogs of mine to properly gauge just how effective Adgitize is as an advertising channel.

Well my 2nd ad has just completed it’s one month duration and the results is even better than my 1st campaign whereas my 3rd ad is still running with about 9 days left. This is probably due to more bloggers joining the Adgitize network. Anyways here are the stats screenshot for your perusal:

So if you have some extra cash to invest in promoting your blog or website which appeal to bloggers, then I highly recommend giving Adgitize a try. Do submit your blogs as well to enjoy extra bonus points as well by being an advertiser.

Earn By Writing Product Reviews

This earning channel is perfect for those who love to share their opinion on products and a passion for writing. There are several well known platform which remunerate product reviewers but today we are going to be looking at ComparedBy.Us, the new paid review portal.

The system deployed is pretty standard whereby reviewers get paid based on the popularity of the product, review length and overall quality of the review itself. In ComparedBy.us, reviewers will USD 1.00 for above 1,000 characters review and USD 0.25 for reviews between 250 to 1,000 characters. This is to justify their emphasis on the quality of reviews.

Upon joining, you will enjoy a review bonus upon approval of your very first product review. Review approvals are made by the editors and one particular feature I like is the ability to request for approvals once per pay period which is on the 20th of each month. Here are some of their review writing guidelines:

How do I write a review?

On any product information page simply click on the write a review link.
Are there any review requirements? Every field in the review form must be filled in. A review of between 250 and 1,000 characters is considered a quick review. Reviews of more than 1,000 characters are considered extended reviews. Each review submitted must be unique, well written, concise and helpful. Reviews that do not pass our editorial review will be removed from the site and we will not be eligible for payment.

Can I post the same review more than once?

No. Each review must be unique. You will find that many products contain commonalities (i.e. Ipod Nano in various storage capacities), each review should differ substantially in content.
Can I post more than one review about the same product? No. Each member is limited to writing one review per product.

Can I include links in my review?

No. We do not currently support HTML tags in our reviews.
Does ComparedBy.Us edit or delete reviews? Yes. Our editorial staff reviews each review for acceptable content and style. In addition, any visitor to the site can flag a review as containing offensive or otherwise unacceptable content. When a review is flagged as unacceptable it triggers a second review of the content. ComparedBy.Us will not substantially modify the content of any review and will never influence the bias of the review. Our editorial process is intended to remove foul language, offensive text and unacceptable reviews.

How do I update a review I wrote in the past?

A list of all the reviews you have written is available in your member profile. Following one of these links will take you to a page with an “Edit This Review” link.

Can I post my reviews to other web sites?

No. ComparedBy.Us is dedicated to collecting unique, well written reviews from our members. We regularly check our review database for uniqueness and quality. Reviews that are found to exist on other websites, particularly other shopping comparison websites, will not be eligible for the Member Incentive Plan or any future revenue sharing plan. In addition, members who have been found to submit content from or to other sites may have their Member Incentive Plan earnings revoked or suspended altogether.

Besides writing reviews, you can also earn with referrals which will be available soon. Sadly though there are no revenue sharing model and review rating system.
