Monetization Draws Ire

Recently a comment was made on one of my blog posts. Specifically, a "Sponsored post." The poster was very harsh, but I think they had some valid points. Please, take time to read their comment (below) and chime in on the discussion.


This blog is becoming saturated with useless spam. Do you even investigate these companies or are you willing to do anything for a buck? Stop with all the spam crap.

What is wrong with you?
This blog seems to swing from one extreme to another. Re-read your posts from the last six months. A trip to the doctor could be in order, as I suspect you are an untreated bi-polar. Anyone else see this behavior as odd?

I wouldn't go so far as saying it is filled with spam. There are to many sponsored posts for my taste that are for companies that I detest. I just deleted 2, that were rejected by the advertiser, because, I had put to much of my opinion in there. I mean, what good is it, if I can't be honest. I need the cash, but I really need to be honest. Ugh, I hat this. This post itself, was approved, but I even hate this one.

Another problem, I have found is that it seems Blogsvertise, here lately has been giving me 2 or 3 tasks all at once. It would be much better, if they were say like one a day, so that they aren't all bunched up together. As was the case, when TJD responded with their comments.



Perhaps, I can find a better way of monetization that would allow me to be true to my beliefs, while at the same time, produce a greater income. I am open to any ideas. I would like to thank TJD for their comment, and for keeping me focused. I will from this point on do a better job, of being more selective of the tasks that blogsvertise give me. It is my desire to see this blog become even better in every aspect.

We (at the blog) have had a great four (4) years and I look forward to our fifth (5th) anniversary in March. In the meantime, we are fast moving into the holiday season. Both Hanukkah and Christmas will be here before you know it. Let's focus on the the holiday spirit and the reason for the season.

Love, Peace and Goodwill to all.
