A lot of attention has recently been given to bloggers who get paid to blog, especially in light of certain search engines going on the rampage and doing all sorts of not-so-nice stuff to those of us who make a living through blog advertising.

There is, however, a company who’s standing unshaken against such behemoths and is conducting business as usual. If you blog for money, then you’ll probably know that I’m referring to the guys from Smorty. I hooked up with them a few weeks ago through blogger friends of mine who blogs for money with them with great success and I thought I’d try out their system.

To advertise on blogs is a great resource for both advertisers and bloggers and Smorty bring’s the two together. The advertiser benefits through word of their product spreading and bloggers benefit because they get paid for their opinion, which is something we all do every time we write a post anyway – isn’t that the perfect job?

Their blogger dashboard is simple and straight forward, so there’s no guessing what to do and where to go to do it, which saves a lot of time when you’re going in, getting an assignment and getting on with the business of posting. Their grading system, although it includes the dreaded p-ranking system, doesn’t rely on it solely, but instead uses a propriety aggregate of information to determine the standing of your website and the value of offers you can apply for.

If you’re keen on blogging for money their definitely worth a try.
