I am sure that most of the blogs that you visit contain some sort of advertisements, like Google Ads, local ads, paid posts and etc. I have a friend who hates visiting my blog for the reason of the existence of paid post.
Well, I used to hate paid posts on other blogs too. But, slowly, I came to realize that it is quite a good source for some extra pocket money, so why not? I think it is a good way of funding food, clothes or cosmetics. I mean, who in the world can live with one single income when you are not making THAT much from one source.
What do you think? You hate the sight of ‘paid posts’?
I hate paid posts because they clutter the blog and it only takes one of those stupid links to die and you can’t even visit the blog at all.
People who blog for money do just that, blog for money and don’t speak from their heart/mind.
I don’t consider these to be real bloggers because their motivation has strayed from the spirit of blogging and into being another commercial writer.
I don’t hate them. All I need to do is skip that post and read their non paid post.
I don’t really agree with ShadowFox’s comment though, as even though I am writing paid posts, I maintain the quality of my non-paid post and certainly, I don’t write filler post.
well, i guess each of us sees differently. I a m a fan of paid posts too. what to do… $ not enough!!!
I do paid post too so it doesn’t bother me much if there is a paid post on someone’s else blog.
its not wrong to make some money out of a blog to paid for their hosting, bill etc.
I only hate excessive advertising such as banners, referral links and so on.
