Why Patrick Gavin Gave Up TextLinkAds

Sponsored Post

It’s almost well-known that TextLinkAds has been sold to MediaWhiz. However, nobody really understood WHY he gave up such a great advertising company (in my opinion). Now I understand why, so he could create his next, well-known advertising solution, except this time it is for bloggers! The name of this amazing new service is ReviewME!

It is definitely a direct competitor with PayPerPost, but a small difference - they pay bloggers MUCH more than PayPerPost and you simply review a product. Here is why I think this business model is much better than the business model of PayPerPost:

  • ReviewME displays a marketplace of all the blogs which participate in their service. This helps their advertisers by choosing which blogs will post up a review for their product and get paid. PayPerPost allows any accepted blog to post up reviews, which does have a better control on the targetted audience you hope to receive.
  • Blogs which achieve a certain ranking (based on several factors described below) are accepted in a moment of seconds. PayPerPost requires a manual review which is not based on the same factors as ReviewMe.
  • The ReviewME service functions similar to TextLinkAds, but offers a couple better features for the advertisers.
  • The only thing that they could possibly improve on is: creating an affiliate program so I can bring them some more bloggers!

If you are interested, you should sign up here. They are offering $30 for all those who do a review on their service up to $25,000 for new bloggers!
