Title: How much do you charge for posting? Post by: jj on November 16, 2007, 08:24:03 PM In the beginning, I felt like I sold myself short. I know think it is okay to post for dimes or even 15 cents, but not the big wordy post of over 20 words. I'm usually pretty windy, so now I just charge 30 cents a post. That's pretty expensive, isn't it?

Title: Re: How much do you charge for posting? Post by: wisedude on November 30, 2007, 11:28:28 PM I deviate on how much I charge depending on the content.. If it's something I know really well then I'll charge only a dime or two, because I don't need to do any research. However, when it gets to something hazy for me, I'll charge more. I'll charge up to maybe 40 cents if the posts take a bit of research, because obviously I'll want to sound educated. Essentially, it all depends on what kind of posting I'm doing... More interesting to me = cheaper, because I'm getting more benefits than just money. I'm getting knowledge ;)

After all, in today's internet world, content is king and having good content will definately mean more traffics. I will basically charged 50 cent for research posting and 10-20cents for normal posting that doesn't need much research Hope this can be a guideline or consideration for you all.

Post by: iulianh on December 01, 2007, 02:39:39 AM Somwhere between $.25 and $.50 per post , but this is not enough , i like to get big packages with 100-200 quality posts . You will never get rich with this service but it`s a good way to make some money . Actualy you have to be well trusted and well known so people could hire you to do this job , that`s what i know .
Title: Re: How much do you charge for posting? Post by: bizwiz on December 07, 2007, 11:29:53 PM I used to post for whatever the forums owners are offering me, even for $0.05 for 15 word posts! But since then I have been selective in the posting jobs I am willing to take and most of my going rate is around $0.20 for a 15 word post and $0.25 for starting threads. For topics that require specific specializations like lets say sports racing or taking care of pet lizards, I will charge more due to the contents I will post there will have to be researched first. Going rates will probably be $0.30 per post and $.50 per thread.
Title: Re: How much do you charge for posting? Post by: TGW on December 20, 2007, 01:29:50 PM Good paid posting encourages further discussion. The number of words is not always relevant. The key to the process is whether a little thought has gone in to the content of the post. I have paid 10c per post for top flight, thoughtful, succinct posts, I have also paid 30c per post for bloated, wordy rubbish.
The essence of good forum posting is whether the posts naturally draw more people in to the discussion - not the grammar or number of words etc. Sadly, the majority of paid posting companies (and individuals) fail to realise this. Title: Re: How much do you charge for posting? Post by: RYF on January 30, 2008, 11:23:27 PM It really depends on the topic at hand. If something is easy and fun, I will charge as low as .15 a post. If it's going to be a long time to get the work done, and research is heavy, I will charge up to .30 a post. When I use my company, I use packages so it's a bit different.
Title: Re: How much do you charge for posting? Post by: pebbleworm on April 02, 2008, 10:09:45 PM Hi!
I usually charge 15 cents for a 20-25 word post. 30 cents for up to 50 words as posts this long usually takes a bit of research. Title: Re: How much do you charge for posting? Post by: paid-posting on May 17, 2008, 01:45:33 PM That's interesting, but I'm not sure it's wise. Here's how I do it differently. I only take on subjects that I know well, and I charge a lot for those subjects because I know them well and can post intelligently about them. If it's a topic that I don't know well, I'll usually charge less and post mainly questions on the forum rather than answers. Furthermore, just because a topic is interesting is no reason not to charge a good amount for posting on it.
I deviate on how much I charge depending on the content.. If it's something I know really well then I'll charge only a dime or two, because I don't need to do any research.
