Yes, lately i have been fascinated by people that get paid to blog. Isn’t there something luring you into a career that involves telling everybody and nobody what you think about things and getting paid for it? I guess the only job better might be writing those two word reviews that end up on the backs of movie boxes - “Riveting entertainment…” or “Suspense spectacular!”

So we’re six days into November - just three work days for us M-F folks. That’s $618.24 worth of gross income for me. Let’s see how the top income blogs on PayPerPost are doing so far in November. They are prominently displayed on the bottom of the main page of the site but there are not links to the user’s blog or any way to tell what these people are writing about. So i did some snooping. Ok - googling.

Crissy has earned $442.94 which comes to $18.45 if she worked as many hours as i have this month. She runs Dear Crissy which is a Pagerank 4 site and has an Alexa score of 133,997. She is 27 and lives in Ohio. She works full time according to her about Crissy page so she made that in her “off” time from work - nights and weekends. That makes that kind of a chunk of income pretty spectacular. That comes to $73.82 a day in additional income or $26,945 a year (at that rate) in side money. Nice going Crissy!

Laurie has earned $416.20 to date in November. That comes to $17.34 an hour. She runs La Vie de Laurie which has a Pagerank of 2 and Alexa score of 206,307. She is 29 and lives in Texas. Laurie seems to have a full time job also so her income is also a nice addition to her salary.

Colleen is not on the top earners for November but she is the all-time top paid postie. She runs seven blogs including Simple Kind of Life which is a Pagerank 5 site and scores 57,202 on Alexa. She is 31 years old and has been paid $17,870 for her PayPerPost posts.

Hrm - there is a trend forming. Female bloggers - in late 20s or early 30s. All have mentioned a husband or boyfriend on their about me pages… Looks like i should change my gender and rename my girlfriend and i might be able to work my way up there in my off time.
