PayPerPost and its Terms of Service

Is there anybody who really reads all the points that make TOS (terms of service)?
I don’t and maybe I should. Nah, it looks that first I get burned, then I find out why.
It happened with AdSense, now it happened again with PayPerPost. You think that I should have learned something, right?

I wrote a post about paintball and actually I was honest about this sport which I considered practicing at some point back in time.
It did not even cross my mind that it would be rejected.
Why it has been? The answer from PPP was that I have violated the TOS that requires to have a non pay-per-post written in the past seven days prior to the sponsored one, and that a post written in the same day as the sponsored one does not matter.

So you are not only confronted with the situation of not being able to get opportunities which are almost always grabbed by the army of the stay-at-home moms, you really have to know the TOS, which so far it boils down to these three important things regarding PPP:

1. Have the disclosure included within your blog
2. Write at least every other day to be on the safe side
3. Have at least one non-sponsored post before writing a sponsored one

Weird. Why is that 7 days rule important I have no freaking idea.
The bad thing is that you are not allowed to resubmit the post, meaning that that opportunity is lost. Nice… NOT!

I admit that having three blogs, it’s pretty hard to have enough drive to write in all of them. I can’t even imagine how could anybody have ten or more. It takes so much time to write something interesting.
Yeah, actually who said that most of these guys with tons of blogs had something interesting there, right?

Anyway, learn from my mistake.
