Darren Rowse continues his Persuasive Blogging series with Part III, Conviction:

You see you can write posts that grab the attention of readers and that even are wonderfully interesting - yet still have no lasting impact upon those who read them.

If you truly want to persuade them to some new course of action then you need to convince them that the action you’re asking them to take is a worthwhile thing for them to do.

Without it - your readers will simply walk away from your post without really being moved to do anything by it (that could be a valid goal that you have - but this series is about being persuasive so I’m assuming we want to go further than that).

Problogger today launched jobboard, a service to match blogging jobs to bloggers and for bloggers to advertise their service:

This service would suit companies looking for bloggers, blog networks, individual bloggers looking for CoBloggers or even bloggers looking for medium to short term guest bloggers while they take a vacation.

And if your wondering about cost:

The cost of listing a job is currently $50 as an opening special but this will go up to around the $100 mark in two weeks time.

Raj Deash at Performancing.com has written Should You Biz-Blog For (Sweat) Equity? where he discusses other methods of payment for Corporate Blogging:

Brian Clark mentioned equityas one form of payment for corporate blogging. If I’ve interpreted correctly, I’m assuming that Brian means things like accepting options, shares, or a percentage of partial payment from a client company. (I’ll continue on the assumption that that’s what he’s saying.)

It’s a great idea, and if you choose that form of payment, either partially or completely, understand fully what you’re getting and giving. You still need to clearly define for both yourself and the client what your fee for the project is. How you choose to accept payment is secondary.

One of the keys to making money blogging is to “direct” visitors to pages that are most influential and profitable for you. Exactly which pages on your blog these are might remain a bit of a mystery, but with some investigation, you should be able to discover them. Certain pages will result in high CTR, or conversions, that will directly result in you increasing your earnings.
