PPP = PR0
Pay Per Post was a good idea that came about 2 years too late. I tried it for a client and had bloggers write product reviews. it owrked out ok, but not worth the 15% fee Pay Per Post wanted.
Had they started earlier they would have had a chance to make more money before Google basically shut them down. I know pay Per Post is still there, but I don’t see how advertisers are going to want to have posts made on PR0 blogs.
I also don’t see bloggers wanting to risk their page rank just to make a little money from Pay Per Post. So am I predicting the demise of Pay Per Post? Well . . . Yeah.
Google has given bloggers who blog for Pay Per Post a PR 0. The blogs may still rank well in the search engines, but Google effectively killed the idea of having advertisers bid on blog posts based on the PR of the blog.
Will we see yet another lawsuit against Google for doing something with PageRank. Maybe, but it won’t fly. The bottom line is you can complain all you want about google and page rank but they own page rank. They can do with it as they please.
I’m glad I did not use my blogs with Pay Per Post. I was definitely tempted.

Gawd, mine had gone to N/A too, I hate the fact that they have to reduce our PR’s just because we monetize our blogs. What’s the catch anyway? They do the same thing, too I guess on their ‘other’ websites perhaps. Damnn, it makes me go all crazy. –,

Unfortunately pay paer post came along late in the game. I think if they were more established they might have survived.
