I did sign up though because I honestly need the money. I believe many people including myself would be more than willing to blog for free if we had other income or were wealthy before hand for whatever reason. I am an artist... The sharing of information and art is a given for me. But as an artist I need to make money to support myself and one way is through advertising. I signed up for performancing and now have been approvd for text-link ads after a seven month wait. LOL. Sad thing though about most of my content... 90-95% is original including the images and words. Yet these sploggers seem to think they can take it and make money off of it and they are doing so. Pay per click is not the way to go. I like the idea of a flat rate per month regardless of clickthrough's because people will still <strong>see</strong> the ad and someday end up at the site because they have seen it perhaps on other sites. I hope eventually I will be able to remove all ads and soley fund my site and my life through the sale of my art online. That was a great read Tony. Got me thinking lots and also thinking about how much I adapt to this new reality (blogging) I find myself in. I wouldn't trade it for the world. Pay per click had never made sense to me.

Yeah ... since payperclick ads aren't going anywhere, I don't expect MFA blogs to go anywhere soon, unfortunately. Thanks for stopping by!

This menace of click frauds will end only when pay per click ads are go out of blogosphere. It won't be possible to distinguish genuine clicks from clicks made by employees hired to do so. Pay Per Post will also kill the basic spirit of blog - which was to share information. That was a nice post.
