Here’s what I’ve learned about Blogitive.

• It doesn’t matter if your post really has a lot to do with the web release. Some of the ones I’ve done had very little in common with the release, but they were approved.
• The blog entries have to be on the main page, I think. I submitted one and got it approved, but the next one that wasn’t on the home page was rejected. I guess someone was a bit more diligent in checking the posts.
• Offers are sporadic. You may go a few days with none and then suddenly see three or four show up. Accept them all and decide later if you really want to do them. Many of these are limited, so if you don’t accept it right away, it can disappear in a few hours.
• They approve the blogs in a day or so, on average. Some get looked at in a matter of hours, but I had one that took a couple of days to get approved.
• They do pay out weekly, as promised.

Of course, the question is, do you want to put this type of entry on your blog, or do you want to keep the blog “pure.” I have to admit that I’m still torn. It’s nice to make a little cash from the blog to help pay for hosting, etc., but I’m concerned that it will make the blog cluttered.

Another problem is that this type of thing really screws with the Google Adsense code on the page. I’m getting all sorts of ads now, instead of only the writing related ones that I’d prefer.

If any of the above changes, I’ll be sure to post about it, but for now, this is probably the last Blogitive review. I’d like to hear your feedback about the ads. Do they bother you, or do you simply ignore them?
