An advertiser’s perspective on a PPP campaign

Taking a break from the up-n-down website drama with GoDaddy to give you some actual content…
Jack Spirko wrote a review post of three reviews purchased through PPP. It’s always good to get feedback, and Jack provided examples of the good, the really good, and the not-so-good. He reveals the offer to provide a top tack rating to bloggers that go above and beyond. This is good, because most advertisers don’t even bother with tack ratings. In fact, less than 2% of my advertisers bothered.
That either says something about me or it says something about them.
Anyway, I got a chuckle from this:
"I am not huge on grammar and syntax but that is pretty poor…"
Funny, obviously, giving the spelling and grammar error in the title: Becomming a Better Postie an Inside View of a PayPerPost Campaign - ComTech News
He also reveals that he benched all of the bloggers for 60 days, regardless of performance. Understandable, given that it’s generally accepted to be better SEO to have links and opinions spread across the web rather than focused through a couple of lenses. However, Franklin Spirko Media runs other campaigns, and I hope he remembers those bloggers that performed well for him and utilizes the PPP Direct feature to place new campaigns with quality bloggers.
In addition to providing feedback, this is the MOST POWERFUL way to improve the quality of bloggers in the PPP marketplace. Denying revenues to bad bloggers and rewarding good bloggers will have the pruning effect necessary to raise the level of professionalism amongst paid bloggers.

A short update on my recovery status: I have questions out to several hosting companies and I hope to make a decision about new hosting this weekend. At that point, I’ll get everything transferred and rebuild the site. So far, I am frustrated with requirements to pay additional 1-yr domain registration fees for the transferred domains, on top of set up fees and slightly-higher monthly hosting fees. I’m willing to pay more for better service and more user-friendliness in the cPanel, but I find it silly that I have to pay $10/domain in the form of the domain registration fee when I can just point the domains at Blogger for free and be done with the whole mess.
