If there’s any site that bloggers are looking forward to, it should be this one. I’m talking about SocialSpark. This is a social network for bloggers and advertisers, think facebook + pay per post, yes that’s social spark.

This is a new offering from IZEA, the same people who brought to you PayPerPost. If somehow PPP left a bad taste in your mouth due to the sudden lost of site’s PR last year, then SocialSpark comes clean. For starters, PPP is not SocialSpark. You even need to create a new profile, there’s no export/import of any kind.

All of the sponsored links have the attribute “NoFollow” in them, that would keep the search engines happy especially the big G. With this step, big corporations would not shy away from advertising through the blogging community (hint - more cash for us!).

How is this site social? Well if you have a profile, you can add other bloggers as your friends. You can also freely mingle with the advertisers as well and they can also check your site stats, which is public.

The opportunities open for bloggers include the usual sponsored post and sponsored blog. Sponsored blog is an interesting idea whereby the advertiser pay you by the day, in exchange they would place a small bar on the bottom of your page. The positive about this is, you don’t have to change your blog layout to free some space for the sponsor.

One thing which is I hope they would do is to accept non-blog websites, so that I can find advertisers for my other sites!

Anyway, even though this post is sponsored, I’m already a convert and have registered myself - if you’re a member or joining soon - do add me ya! Here’s my profile link.
