SocialSpark Review

What happens when you merge a blogger community, a paid-to-blog website and, a site analytic tool? Well, you get THE ultimate social network for bloggers and blog advertisers– SocialSpark.

Registration is a breeze and if you wanna start earning, you just have to go through three steps:

1. Claiming Your Blog. SocialSpark is gonna provide you with the installation code and you just have to paste it in your blog template.
2. Installing the ITK Code. ITK stands for Izea ToolKit. It tracks your blog’s statistics in order to generate RealRank and ROIRank and other features such as PPP Direct and SocialSpark Blog Sponsorship.
3. Verification. After installing the 2 codes, click on the verification link to submit your blog for review. In order to be approved, your blog needs to be 90 days old, written in English, with original and appropriate content and a minimum of 20 pre-existing posts.

SocialSpark is not just another get-paid-to blog site and it stresses that fact by ensuring implementing its code of ethics. These are:

1. 100% Audit-able in-Post Disclosure. A Disclosure Badge needs to be posted after every sponsored post to inform the audience about the nature of the post thus keeping their trust and avoid any appearance of impropriety.
2. 100% Transparency. “The public can also see which bloggers are working with which advertisers on which opportunities.” This ensures honesty.
3. 100% Real Opinions. Just because you’re paid to write a post does not mean you have to kiss the advertisers boots. You can post your real opinions on your posts.
4. 100% Search Engine Friendly. To ensure Google will not slap you with a PR 0, every link carries with it a nofollow tag. Bloggers and advertisers can’t alter that.

Owned by Izea, SocialSpark is said to be the sociable sibling of old PayPerPost. So if you’re already a Postie who also like spending time social networking, you’ll definitely find SocialSpark more appealing.

Since my blog got accepted, I already made 6 posts, including this one.
