Sponsor A Post

What is a sponsored post?

A sponsored post is an individual post on a blog which is specifically sponsored by an individual or company who’s product or service compliments the topic of the post.

For example, I have a post on my blog ‘7 Life Lessons I Learned from Running A Marathon’ the type of company who would sponsor this post is a company selling running shoes, or a blogger who writes specifically about marathons. So the product has to align with the post on the blog.

Why would I sponsor a post?

There’s a number of reasons You would benefit from sponsoring a post on Change Your Thoughts blog:

  • Your name, product or service will be shown to potentially thousands of readers every month.
  • You get a great link from from a major blog on personal development.
  • You will get your brand shown to a wider audience.
  • The benefits of partnering with an established and well respected blog owner can open doors to more business between the blogger and yourself.

What are your blog stats like?

Figures are taken from MyBlogLog detailed statistics:

Monthly page views: 80,218

Monthly Unique Visitors: 42,999

Monthly Clickthroughs: 13,590

Signups to newsletter per month: 466 (figures taken from Aweber stats) this figure is likely to double due to new tactic that has been implemented on June 4th which shows that daily signup rates have increased by 120%

Average number of comments per post: 43

Why do all articles cost the same when there will be more page views for some?

Rather than have all different priced posts, as some will clearly receive more traffic than others, I felt it was fair to introduce an average priced policy as I was going to price some articles at $25 per month and some at $5 per month. So this would have depended on the traffic, however some articles no matter how old, hit a peak sometimes and can still be promoted so traffic spikes are quite common in articles that have previously received little traffic.

How can I get more traffic to the post I sponsor?

All articles on the site can still be promoted using social media sites such as Twitter, Stumbleupon, Facebook, and Delicious. The post you sponsor wil receive traffic spikes from time to time which will increase your sponsor ads exposure and therefore the number of clickthroughs to your site/product/service.

How will I know if a post is still available to sponsor?

If the post doesn’t have the ‘Sponsor This Post’ sign on it, then it is not available to sponsor yet.  However you can contact me and I can put your name on a list for a particular post.

Is there a set format for the ads?

Yes. All ads have to be 468×60 which is like the one below:

How much does it cost?

It costs $12 per month per post which you can cancel at any time.
