Now, this is a really tempting offer from blog network CW (Creative Weblogging). If you think your blog needs some massive marketing and infrastructure support, check out what CW has to offer when you join their network.
Does your blog fit the following description?
- 50k+ pageviews/month (via Google Analytics) from the United States, Germany or France
- well written blog in English or German
What CW offer you in return:
- We’ll integrate your site into the existing network of 135+ blogs.
- We plug you into the group of editors and give you help from the team on how to build your site further
- Pitch your site to our audience and advertisers
- We pay per article (around $7 per post) or depending on your blog, could be more
- A pageview bonus of $1 per 1,000 page views (as reported in Google Analytics).
- Fully redundant hosting, nice layout and structure of your blog plus some great extras like email newsletters and ratings.
- We pay for all marketing and guest bloggers if you wish to bring them on
The lease term is for a minimum of 36 months but could extend. You will then regain full ownership after that and it’s up to you if you sell it or take it back.
I have to say this is a really nice and tempting offer. If you post 100 entries a month and getting 50k pageviews, you could be earning $750 from them. And no expenses from your end. Haven’t seen any blog network that can match that. Tempting huh?

I would have to say I don’t agree with the notion that you would have to be a bigtime blogger to get blogging gigs that pay you $7 per post.
As a matter of fact, I was recently contacted by a Australian call center website editor who offered me to write 250-word posts for AUS$35 (around US$30) per article. And the good thing about it is I don’t need to lease out my blog. I just need to write articles for them and I can continue blogging about the call centers the way I always have on my own blog. We’re currently talking about the terms. and prospects are looking good.
I think there good writing can get bloggers better paying gigs in the long run.
the idea is tempting but only big time bloggers are likely to meet the criteria.. http://spaceofinfluence.blogspot.com
The $750 computation is tempting alright, but like what others have said here, I think this lease program by CW is mainly for the creative writer who already has a blog and an audience but is having a hard time monetizing his/her website(for some reason).
And how many legit Philippine blogs actually get 50,000 page views a month? I can only think of a few, and I know most of them earn a lot more than $750.

It’s actually from 2 blogspot blogs I started just 5 months ago.
