A couple of days ago I published a post on this blog that I wrote about a company called Blogging Ads. It was basically a review of my experience with that company when trying to earn money by writing paid blog posts.
Within minutes of writing the post I received a comment from someone working for them. I’d like to think they follow this blog, and value my opinion highly, but I think the more probable reason they commented so quickly is because they use a script or program that points out when a site mentions their URL.
During the comment they asked me a question. The question was :
If we offered a premium service where we emailed you with the latest review opportunities, so you could get a head start on your rivals, would you pay $2 a month for this?
Rather than give them my opinion of this I thought I would turn it into a post and put the question to you, the reader. I’ve also set up a poll about it as well
[poll id="2"]
I am a 33 year old full-time freelancer & blogger from East London, United Kingdom, who has been working online since early 2001.

It should not be the case. I would certainly not pay a dime for a extra blog review.
See I don't believe paying the £2 a month would assure you of any extra reviews, it would depend on how many other people took up this premium feature.
both yes and no. It's based on different circumstances like the quality of the reviewer and other stuffs.. But more likely no.
I won't pay any extra for that
I think if there was some sort of guarantee that we would get extra reviews it might tempt people.
Not me though, and certainly not you or the others who have commented so far.
I believe if there was some type of assure that we would get added evaluations it could possibly tempt persons.
You are the only person who has said yes.
Not surprisingly nobody has said yes on the poll yet.
