John Reese at the Income.com Blog posted a great rant in defense of PayPerPost that echoes several themes I posted about last Friday.
I left the following comment, but I urge you to go over and read his post - it’s a bit long, but very well-reasoned. I just wish he didn’t moderate comments…

May 9th, 2007 at 2:41 pmI wrote a similar post (albeit, shorter!) a few days ago, and have linked through to it. My argument is that, with any disruptive force, those that are most invested in the current business model (paid ads, Adsense, affiliates, etc) are going to be the most resistant. I do paid posts on several blogs for multiple brokers, including PPP, and I have to say, it’s real WORK.
But, I’m trying to do it well, so it should be…
I also believe it will help bloggers raise their communication skills to higher levels as the competition amongst bloggers increases - advertisers will soon have their choice of quality blogs, and lots of them, to choose from when placing a paid post. Anything that improves the level of discourse and the value of the information presented in the blogosp- oops!… well, I think it has to be a good thing.
When I read blogs I want value, whether in the form of entertainment or information. The top websites provide those two things, and the people that give us crap wither away. These top site serve their readers (yes, I read your download). Paid posts, presented in an entertaining or informative manner, serve a market.
