Wordpress Allows Payperpost Now?
I signed up with Payperpost using my blog at Wordpress.Com which has a PR of 6. That was before I learned that Wordpress.com banned sponsored posts. My Wordpress.Com blog was accepted by Payperpost and I can see a lot of opportunities every time I log in to my Payperpost account. But because I know now that I can’t write sponsored posts on my wordpress.com blog, I never accept an assignment from Payperpost. I was afraid that Wordpress will suspend my account. Awhile ago, I was looking for some updates on this matter hoping that I would find something like : Wordpress allows Payperpost again but I didn’t find it. What I found are some Wordpress blogs which are still able to write for Payperpost. Looks like DSimple and Blessingsoflove are allowed to post sponsored posts. Now I am confused, is PPP allowed in Wordpress again and they’re not making it public or PPP is still banned?
Enlighten me please.
To the best of my knowledge (having suffered the same fate myself) if your blog is hosted by wordpress.com (so your URL would look something like http://thisismyblog.wordpress.com) then you can’t have ads or sponsored content - which rules out PayPerPost.
If your blog is self-hosted (as this one appears to be) even if you use the wordpress.org software, you can have ads and sponsored content.
The problem only arises if you have wordpress.com in the URL of your blog.
I’m still signed up to PPP, but I use my BlogSpot blog for taking Opportunities now and none of those appear on my Wordpress blog.
