Would You Hire Me to Write Your Blog?
I’ve been a bit more active in the stock market in the past few months. I just want my modest retirement fund to be well, a little less modest. So I dipped into my even more modest savings account and put some of that money into the stock market. I’ve been looking to see what else I can do to earn more money. Would you hire me to write your blog? Here are my rates (currency is in Canadian dollars, all rates are subject to change).
Pulse: $1
Small blog entry: $10
Medium blog entry: $20
Lengthy, long winded blog where I write a lot but don’t say anything: $25
Tear jerker blogs: 25% surcharge
Any blogs that gets Featured – add 25%
Any blog that gets into the Exlpore section – add 15%
Blogs with pictures: add $2 for every picture I supply
Same day requests: depends on my mood
Bulk rates: let’s talk
Comments (25)
HAHAHA…I LOVE this. Id hire you.
Haha, not sure I’ve reach that point yet where I feel the need to hire someone else to write stuff for me =P
What’s the sex blog surcharge? lol
what’s the Explore section?
Oh, I would totally hire you, Matt. Can I get you to ghost write for me when I’m on holiday?
Haha~Mattie, I guess I’ll go broke after you become my ‘contractor writer’ because I have so many food photos. Can you give me a ‘special discount’?
LOL! A little too modest rates isn’t it?!
umm … let me know if this business works out. then bring me aboard =P
LOL, this could prove to be a lucrative business
Is it ghost writing or we have to pay to visit your blog? =P
I heard something from Ekin a while back,
you can actually arrange to put ads on your blog
so you can get some money when people visits.
Just a thought *wink* *wink*
So you are looking at the “fish bowl” a lot these days?
(That is how my parents would say
when they were heavily involved
with investing in the stock market)
My page would most definatly become a lot more interesting for sure with you writing for me. It might even appear that I have a life worth reading about.
Ha… have a great weekend Matt.
*~matthew~*
HAHAHA! A bit too expensive for me. When I find a new job, I’ll be looking for you.
Interesting idea. So I can get you to do my blog when I am away on vacation or decide to do something stupid like fall off a ladder again
This totally put a smile on my face. =)
@macphoto - cha ching… yay… my first client. (no discount though cuz I’m greedy)
@Roadlesstaken - yeah, you’re not my target market – you’re very prolific.
@TheLatinObserver - hmm…. I haven’t thought about that. To be serious, it’s actually not that easy for me to write that stuff.
@tomatoboi - oh, if you go to the main page, there’s 3 sections Home, Explore, Extra Credit. The explore is a list of 100 blogs that are getting attention (comments?).
@christao408 - my 2nd client! I’m rich!
@curry69curry - we can negotiate – if you send me pictures, there’s no charge for your pictures. Breakfast, lunches, dinners and cocktails usually lead to discounts.
@Dezinerdreams - I’m gonna corner the market and then raise my rates!
@JonasApproved - hahaha – sounds good to me.
@TheCheshireGrins - hmm… this means I can’t procrastinate.
@ZenPaper - it’s always free to visit my blog. I don’t have a clue how to arrange ads. On your other question, yeah – I read the business section, watch the business news… sigh, I need to increase my RRSP.
@bleuzeus - lol… you take pictures of hot guys. I just take pictures of hot food.
@mmmagination - I may have student rates.
@Fatcat723 - lol… keep away from ladders.
@ALTRUISTICDREAMER - yay… I’m glad it made you smile.

@maniacsicko - hey, I’m only human.
@Renatojr3 - lol… you’ll just have to use your imagination.
hilarious!
Mattie! Where were you this past week when I was in Chicago and chasing my grand children and tearing my hair apart?? I would hire you in a heart beat love. I only wish I had seen this blog when I was running around with them last week.
@snowjunky8 - I could have kept your blog updated during your long absence from Xanga.
@ZSA_MD - I trust the kids kept you very busy?
