Title: Earn BTC by blogging about bitcoins
Post by: TaxingBitcoins on May 15, 2013, 03:07:40 AM
Hello, this is the owner of http://www.taxingbitcoins.com (http://www.taxingbitcoins.com), we have currently implemented a system we call "blog-steading".  This system is built on a blog front-end, you will receive a blogging account and will use it to either write custom blog posts or news story reviews of bitcoin tax and regulatory information.  You will receive a credit of 10$ in BTC for every 1000 users that view your post.  For users that get on board early we will give a bonus as well as enter you in a drawing for 1btc (first 10 bloggers).

We are looking for a few bloggers to help fill the site with current content before going live and advertising our site.  Check out the site's contribute page for more information about applying for an account.  If you are already a blogger we encourage you to transition over to our site, we pay significantly more than google ad sense does for page impressions.

We believe this platform will be a catalyst for high quality content production and want to be the central source for up to the minute bitcoin regulatory information.

Let me know if you have any questions! Thanks, look forward to hearing from you!

Ad sense usually only pays due to clicks on ads, a payout is not guaranteed due to just impressions alone.  They do pay for every 1000 impressions just like us but it pays as low as 10c for keywords like bitcoin which does not have a large amount of advertising money behind it.  There is somewhere on the google page that you can look up the values for every keyword.

How much can you make from these blogs?

I have a reserve of 100BTC right now for paying out bloggers.  There is no upper limit, I would say that our system pays out between 4 to 10 times more than google ad sense.  It is set as 1$ for every 1000 impressions, or visits.

I am thinking of implementing a system to reward early adopters.  Something like for the first 100,000 hits, you get 10$ for 1000 hits.  That is insane by normal advertising standards but as with everything in bitcoin, early adopters should receive a reward.

If adsense pays $0.10/click for bitcoins then you would get $1/1k impressionts~ (I get 10 clicks/thousand from my websites) and I assume you have other payment methods to make you money on your website. I personally find your payout a bit low though so I'm not interested in doing it.

It's true, your current payout is pretty low, you would need to think about raising it if you ever wanted to encourage the majority of Bitcoin users to use your website.

you guys need to make sure you understand the difference between clicks and impressions.  clicks are clicks ON THE AD and impressions are unique visitors.  I can't interface bitcoin with ad clicks, the coding is much easier to interface to blog impressions.  Regardless we pay out much higher than ad sense, until our first 100,000 views we will be paying 10$ for 1000 impressions, whereas ad sense would pay you something like 25 cents for all that.

The OP was edited to reflect our new pricing scheme for the first 100,000 visitors.
