Paying for guest posts

[Shawn Gossman]

Have you ever paid for guest blog posts on your own blog?

If so, did you think it was worth it?

How often do you do it? How much are you willing to pay?

I have paid for guest posts, however, I did not hire professional writers for guest posting. I invited writers who were trying to built reputation and were looking for places to show case their works. They were willing to publish for free but I paid them some money as a token of appreciation.

I think that's a really thoughtful thing to do. I also think that it can help motivate people to make better guest content. If they're getting paid for it, they might put more effort into it.

When I paid my guest writers, they helped me get traffic because they were sharing their content across multiple channels. I once had 4 guest writers on my blog and I was earning over $200 via adsense alone back in 2018
