HBB’s first income source was a ‘sponsored review’. We got $20 (during 2009) for featuring a product (a software I guess) on our blog. It was a surprise for me, and I realized the concept of ‘paid blogging.’ Blogging is currently the most powerful medium to advertise something I guess; it’s permanent, and it can easily become viral.
In this article, we mentioned some of the best paid review sites we have personally used. You’ll be connected with relevant brands and advertisers. I always believe Blogging should be unbiased and should be targeted. If you are running a blog about ‘Gadgets’, then kindly don’t publish a sponsored post/review about a ‘Fashion’ product just because the brand is paying you good money. I’m sure $ matters a lot in Blogging, but you have plenty of ways to monetize by building a proper brand.
Note: Google is strictly against paid links or any unnatural links, so regardless of whether you are getting paid or not, it’s wise to be natural and unbiased in your reviews/articles. Write the post as if you are not getting paid for it, be honest.
Sites That Pay You To Write Reviews [Paid/Sponsored]
Most of the websites mentioned in this list accept PayPal for transferring money, so if you don’t have one, you can sign up and get one. Some of them pay you per post, or some of them might have minimum payout (like $50 or $100).
1. FameBit
2. SeedingUp
3. BlogExpose
4. GetReviewed
5. LinkVehicle
6. Blogmint
7. SponsoredReviews
8. Matomy SEO
9. IZEA (or PayPerPost / SocialSpark)
If you are not interested in writing paid reviews, then these websites also have affiliate programs, so you can just sign up and refer other Bloggers who might be interested in this.
If you know any other popular and trusted sites that pay you for writing reviews, then kindly let us know in the comments below, we’ll be happy to update this list accordingly.
Thanks for the awesome resources Pradeep.
I have use review stream till now and not earning as per expectation, they reject most of your review without any reason.
I will try all other mention option and will see which one work best for me.
I prefer the old payperpost because the enw payperpost never gave me a job.
I have a blog on tech & reviews niche. I recently released that. can you suggest me a service through that i can earn some money after writing reviews?
Have any of you guys used any of these services?
Fantastic list!
I’ve my favorite sites that I use to get freelance assignments. Plus, I’ve my clients.
But it’s always good to discover new resources and places to look for more job opportunities.
Thanks for the share, Pradeep! 🙂
Great list, but i’ve heard SponsoredReviews is the most reliable network, but i find hardtime getting approved into it.
Wow! this is surely a wonderful post!
Great Lists! Great Site!
Thanks for sharing this.. 🙂
This is what, I was looking for. Great list of sites that pay for writing reviews.
the fore-most way is to work at high frequency to built reputation on nay of such networks. the number of blogs or reviews approved always depends upon the number you have submitted! So just set to work and increase your frequency.
Handy collection of sites to write posts and get paid. Am going to take a PDF version of your article and use it for reference thank you.
thanks for sharing this great list, waiting for the response from them 🙂
Well these are some useful lists of sites for getting paid reviews. Thanks a lot Pradeep.
These is great peace of information for other monetization strategies apart from adsense and other ad networks.
nice collection. hope to get some sponsered post from these sites. currently my not making money
I Always using Sponsored Reviews and Payperpost Only.Its Really Very Good for my Passive Income.
I wanted something like this to earn money online. Thanks for the help.
I will try Link from blog and I hope my blog will be approved!
Writing for cash has become great source of generating passive income online but sometimes you can get really piss off because of the job owners choice. So the best thing to do is to set up a blog and write for yourself while you look for traffic and end it with monitization which can fetch you a steady income. More also these type of paid to write website can debase your page rank.
anyone earning from these sites here? please let me know ASAP.
Nice list mate.. Book marked.. Thanks for the work..
Used to use ReviewStream, but they keep dropping per-review pay. It dropped from $2.50 to $1.50 in my time there. Pity.
But Pradeep. Paypal is Currently not Active in India. Then how can we recieve the Payment.
Can you give me a guarantee, that all of this paid reviews is not a scam?
I did’nt even know that there are so many websites paying you for writing reviews!
thanks for the awesome research work
Some of the link point to HBB itself,may be a mistake (Paid Post ,Sponsored Reviews,Buy Blog Reviews,Link Post)
Thanks for sharing the useful information. I think giving honest opinions while writing a review is very important
Giving Hones Opinions and detailed information helps drive a lot of good traffic towards a blog
Man, this list is comprehensive. I’m a web content writer myself – and this list can keep me busy for days to come!
Damn good website, this one. Looking forward for more posts that can help me take my business to the next level! 🙂
Content Writing India
interesting buddy. hope to write review for them in future.
Thanks Pradeep! Really good work with the list!
Really Author have worked hard to complete this list of Websites those pay for Articles.
It is a gold-mine for those want to write paid articles.
Man I am looking for this 🙂
Wow..My finger got tired of scrolling this screen…So many comments.
U deserve that, Great post man.
Keep it up
I don't want to publish posts for reviews, etc, but I'd be okay with placing some LINKS only in return of money. PayPerPost helps with that… what about others? I'd not like to waste time joining a site and then come to know it only asks for review posts.
Shouldn’t the title be “20+ Sites That PAY You To Write Reviews” ?
Almost all the websites are common but some are not. The websites definitely offer something that will benefit you.
I will definitely try some of them
this is a great list
I never had write a sponsor review I my try it
Hey Pradeep, this list is a very old one. Try to update the list bro. And please mention whether these review sites are paying users at time.
You must add Associated Content (AC) also in the list. They have good payouts and always pay on time.
social spark is also good .
socialspark is also a great site which pays for writing reviews
I am planning to write Paid reviews in my blog. Any opinions?
Lately, i’m using 2 pay review site, and they have good payment, and i’ll try other site that you have listed, thank you.
Nice list seems so.. but could any1 say with which to start with ?
Do you have proof that this site is paying. Just wanted to know because I want to try it for some extra cash. thanks

woh!!! all this info is true,,,, amazing,,, need to work on this,, thanks for the info pradeep ,, 🙂
The problem with these sites is that they don’t accept new sites even with pagerank
These sites not only have to think about the publishers, but also the advertiser. So it’s understood bro, they won’t accept low PR sites.
Very helpful list. I’ve checked out a few of these companies for research purposes since I write a lot about making money online.
Nice list, thanks m8 🙂
I'll definitely try some of those.
I'd worked with several paid post company before and earned a few bucks from there. After I knew that Google would penalized people who did it, and I just stopped doing it. Right now, I'm doing quite well with pay per click program such as Google Adsense, as well as selling banner ads.
Anyway, thanks for sharing these paid post company.
Regards,
Lee
Good list. I’m still confused about using these sponsored reviews, whether to use it or not. When i try to use it, i gets a wrong feeling that i’m cheating my friends or i’m lying just for the sake of money. That;s why i stay away from them. Still i’m not against this, because it’s the most beneficial kind of advertising for both the advertiser and the blogger.

Good list. But as far as I know Google hates most of them and that’s one reason why I stay away from these.

Update a few things Pradeep, like blogsvertisiingstore.cm doesnt pay even after you reach your threshold so strike them out of your list (if you wish). You should Google and see what frauds they are, even cheated me of my $$$ and when you try to contact them they deactivate your account and send malicious codes to your site (through the code we install of theirs!).. just imagine, but luckily i had solved that problem sometime ago after coz social spark warned me! they even threatened my mom blogger friends who wrote against them! such cowards too..
The Threshold amt for socialspark.com is now $50, earlier it was $20.. 🙂

This is huge Pradeep. Sharing one more, what about SocialSpark from IZEA?
Its the time to turn any of the above. thanks Pradeep for the list.
This is a great list will visit them and see which suits me best thanks for taking the time to put this list together
The sponsored review market has actually gone downhill. Most good companies have backed out and now these sites are filled with cheap offers which are more interested in a link back (than an honest review).
Quite a great article it seems you have done quite a bit of researching, Thanks
Its such a long time I have made my Impression here! Feels great. Anyways, I haven’t yet written a single paid post till date, but these resources tempt me to make some money writing reviews!
Dude, congrats for your continuous uptrend in alexa rank! 🙂
Fully researched article, it reflects
Nice article, I think this is really that helpful to most bloggers. But I think that if your blog is good enough, there are only two paid review sites you will need, they are reviewme.com and sponsoredreviews.com, the others are useless.
I think you have worked a lot to get this exhaustive list. By the way, have you done any such reviews? Which one of these have you been using?
Very Informative and useful list Thanks for giving another sites to earn more
its a really good list, contains all the major players in the paid review market, however, i must mention that google dosenot really likes paid posts, so any new blogger who wants to earn a quick buck from these, i would say that you will earn the money all right, maybe more than you expected to earn in the first place, but in the process you will also kill your blog… so proceed with caution 🙂
also, here’s a few tips to get into these, if you must…
1) make sure to post atleast 20 posts in the last 2 weeks or so when you apply, regularly updated blogs get an advantage in getting into these networks…
2) page rank of 3+ the more it is, the more you will earn, and a good alexa rank, will allow you to get into these quick, and you will also get more high paying review opportunities 🙂
3) do not put any banners of these on the sidebar of your blog, else the others won’t take you in…
That’s really good and interesting as well.It’s just good.
First, Google doesn’t like paid reviews. It can easily identify which one’s a paid review and which one is not (simultaneous backlinks to the review requester almost at the same time from many blogs could be the clue)
Second, most of the above program offer X rated opportunities or something that is not allowed if you are using Ad programs like Adsense. So, you’ll be risking your account.
Third, you could only be successful in this if you have a blog with at least a PR of 4 and above (PR 2 and 3 are ok too)
I agree. I already have mentioned this. There are some other ways like freelancing sites where you can earn by posting reviews, there will be no problem.
Thanks for the info,I never heard that someone would pay for a review. Great news!
Hey Pradeep 🙂
i would like to add one more site
Socialspark.com => It is an social network for all the bloggers where in bloggers can connect to each other and promote each others product through various ways like PPC , CPA
There are also advertisers who keep a track on your blog and submit their product for review through sponsored posts if they are happy with your blog stats 🙂 🙂
Good list…You have done a good search. Definitely i try this and inform you after using it.
Thnx for info dude…. Gr8 package. loved it.
There are a lot of paid programs out there. I’ll take a look. Really interest me =)
Another well researched list. Kudos.
Yes, I agree to you. A nice research to help people find quick and resourceful info 😉
One more thing, I put double http// for “website address” in my previous two comments. Sorry for the mess Pradeep, lol! Kinda sleepy and tired..
