Even the bloggers don't like the wording. Our FAQ and TOS says something different than it does in the advertiser section. PPP needs to make sure that advertisers and bloggers are on the same page. We've been complaining to them about this in the past week or two. Perhaps they will create a clear policy on this soon.

However like I said, more than 91% of the bloggers that do PPP posts do not remove the posts.

We are all required to have a site wide disclosure policy. Which means that on my site I have a page linked to all of the pages on my site that has my disclosure policy in it. I do not disclose on every paid post unless an advertiser wants me to do so. My regular readers know that I write paid posts and any visitor can read the disclosure policy on my site to verify that if they want to.

Some bloggers prefer to also disclose per post. I believe that advertisers can request that a blogger not disclose within the post. You can't ask them not to disclose at all since a site wide disclosure policy is mandatory but anyone writing a post for you can be asked to not disclose with in the post. If a blogger doesn't agree with your request they shouldn't take your opportunity. Simple as that.

If you are interested in working with PPP why don't you verify what I'm saying by contacting PPP's customer service team?

As a blogger I like that I can pick and choose which posts I'd like to write. By being able to do that I can make sure that the ops suit my blog and I can make the posts blend in to some degree.

BTW once bloggers accept your opportunity and write it for you, you can grade them using a tack system as to how the did. 1 tack is awful, and 5 would be excellent. You can even ban a blogger from ever writing another opportunity for you if you choose to ... although I think the tack system is a better way to go. A low tack rating affects a bloggers ability to write posts for anyone. You can also flag posts that you don't feel met the requirements and if the review team agrees you will not be paying for that post.

Payperpost may not be for everyone but there's a lot of features for bloggers and advertisers alike.

Oh and if anyone does decide to create an opportunity with Payperpost. I can tell you that the ops that the bloggers enjoy taking the most are the ones that don't try to tell us specifically what they'd like to see written. Give us the required links and the text for the link and some info but let us be creative. I can pretty much guarantee that you'll be happier with ops that you let us be creative on over ones where you tell us pretty much what we need to write in our own words.
