Socialspark.com - Minimum Requirement for Blog Approval: An Update

I hope your weekend is going rather well. Mine is much calmer than last week's. (Praise the Lord!)

On another note, I have an update for you regarding SocialSpark.com. Since I was the one who wrote a blog post discussing why I loved it so much, I need to write about this update. In case you are planning to join Social Spark, ensure that your blog fulfills the minimum requirements, so that it gets approved immediately.

I learnt about the minimum requirements of Social spark regarding blogs the hard way *weeping*. My blog was rejected by Social spark a few days ago. This was because my blog did not fulfill the minimum requirement that they have. I don't want any of your blogs to be rejected like mine was. So I decided to write an update to let you all know what had happened. This way, you can learn a lesson from my case.

Social Spark's Minimum Requirement for Blog Approval (sent by Customer Love)

--In order for a blog to be approved into our Marketplace, it needs to be a minimum of 90 days old, and contain a minimum of 20 original, non-sponsored posts in those 90 days. This blog currently has less than 20 posts within the past 90 days.

So if/when your blog fulfills this requirement, go right ahead and apply at the site. If all goes well, the blog will certainly be accepted. You can then start earning.Once my blog fulfills the minimum requirements, I plan on applying to Social Spark again. I will keep you posted.
Happy earnings!

SocialSpark.com – Don't miss out on Paid Blogging at its Best

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine.

The niche of this site pretty much says it all. Yes, I have been looking for money making opportunities for a while. Yes, I like to share my experiences with people, so they too can join me in programs that are good and stay away from scams. Since I am writing a post on SocialSpark, you know it's a special site. Plus, what makes this post all the more special is that no matter what I write about  SocialSpark.com, I am going to be paid for this post! Woohoo. Life is good. Wish I were paid every time I wrote the truth.



For the past month or so, I have been trying various ways to monetize my blog. I am so glad that a friend told me about Social Spark in one of the comments she left me. I signed up and I already know this is a great site. If it were a scam or did not pay competitive rates, this site would not have as many members.ha!

What makes Social Spark better than other paid to blog sites?
This is a question I asked myself before adding one more site to my "money making list". Once I signed up, it did not take me too long to realize why SocialSpark was different from the other paid-to-blog sites. The concept is the same. Advertisers pay you money to blog about their product/service/site. We bloggers make money, the advertiser gets exposure due to our blog post, and all's well.

But the beauty behind how this site works is that it doesn't have time consuming processes. The signing up process literally takes just a minute. You don't have a huge form with a 100 details to be filled in. Once you sign up and your account gets created, paste some code into your blog and that is it! Everyone who signs up gets an offer to write a  sponsored post about Socialspark.com. So you get paid for your first impressions of the site. You don't have to keep waiting, hoping that some opportunity will be sent your way. There is a "marketplace", where you can browse and select opportunities that interest you and are closest to your niche.

Another wonderful thing I noticed, is that you can connect with fellow bloggers. You can add them as "friends", leave feedback and so on. So why not Sign up for SocialSpark ?

It's Sidebar time
Like every other site, Social Spark has some guidelines too. So don't flout their Code of Ethics. Very simple rules are mentioned in their Code of Ethics.
 1. You need to let your reader's know that you are being paid for a post. This I think is great, as your readers will know that you are writing an honest article.
2. You need to give real, honest opinions. Dishonest posts are frowned upon. You write what you think is true.

The moment I receive my first payout, I will share the payment proof with you. So if you are unsure of Social Sparks at the moment, wait a while and I will update you.
Happy earnings!
