Bring your blog into the CW network revisited
Filed in archive Creative Weblogging by tj on February 15, 2008
So after our initial posting about bringing a blog into the CW network we had several dozen applications - the first blog were both parties felt it makes sense to pool our efforts will come up soon here in the network.

However essentially we are proving a publishing platform here to A) Sponsors and company who want to build a blog and reach out to and audience B) Bloggers who would like to move heir blog to the next level and sell their own ads and C) bloggers who would like to outsource blog operations to us and just keep blogging.

Here are some of the features:

  • Wizard to write XHTML compatible entries, auto-corrects bad HTML

  • Publish-On, Publish Now, Draft articles

  • No editing from CW as long as no offensive posts (sexual or harassment)

  • Daily live backups to Amazon S3

  • Fully automated Self Service that sells banner ads

  • Many existing category campaigns that can be extended to your site

  • Fully featured ad server (Openads)

Make Money as a blogger


  • Let us sell the ads and get a fix monthly payment plus traffic bonus OR

  • Use the platform and do your own ad sales



  • So what options do I have?

    Option A) You can use our platform WITH content written by a CW blogger/editor and marketing (we pay an editor and guarantee a number of posts). (We call this the Sponsored Blog product), only your ads are shown. Prices start at $1500/month.

    Option B) You can use our platform WITHOUT content from us for $500/month. You sell ad spaces.

    Option C) You can bring in your own (existing) blog and we will pay a monthly stipend in exchange of getting ALL ad revenue (no initial payment from your side). Blog needs to have 50k visitors from US or Germany. We will provide customized offer (starts at $240/month, can be substantially more in guaranteed and bonus payments for high traffic sites).

    Let us know your feedback and ideas!
