A blogger recently lost her page rank, Google took it away and gave their explanation as the sponsored posts within her blog. There’s a whopping amount of debate both on blogs and in private forums again.
This really isn’t the time to spam us en masse in some sort of ‘we’ve caught a whiff that something’s up’, I had 10 offers to write such posts yesterday and I hear some others have been experiencing the same.
And I’ll just leave you with the little nugget of advice that now is really not the time to start saying ‘the budget’s tight this one will be £40′ as if anything, with the rate that bloggers are walking away from accepting sponsored posts and some even removing old ones, you will really be needing to be very fair in your approach and payment. And even then you may well be disappointed with the reaction.
Of course there will always be newer bloggers, happy to jump on the chance to make money from blogging who are not yet savvy to the ways of the Page Rank – but they will, on the whole, not have the higher Page Rank you desire.
Times are on the change again my friends,
Annie
