Blogging is a very lucrative activity. As a blogger, you can offer your services and be rewarded handsomely. You can either be paid to post on your blog or on your clients' blog. Either way, there is money to be made.
Today, there are some job boards for bloggers, which make it possible for us to easily seal writing deals with companies. Many companies are looking for bloggers to hire for many different types of blogging jobs. Some need bloggers to write articles for their business pages. Others need reviews for their products or services and the results can drive a huge amount of traffic.
While most of these companies pay direct cash as rewards, others pay with free copies of their products (worth a lot of money).
Recently, I created this job board for bloggers and that let me into doing more research about what's going on in the industry. So I decided I was going to come up with a few job boards for BasicBlogTips readers.
If you want to make money as a blogger, I encourage you check out these jobs boards. You are certainly going to find one or two offers that will fetch some extra money into your account
3Â Job boards for bloggers – Get hired by Companies
These are some quick job boards to find exciting offers and be paid  hot cash;
This to the best of my findings is the hottest job board for bloggers. Job offers on this job board get hundreds of applications daily from bloggers all over the world.
This job board brings bloggers and companies together. Bloggers don't have to signup to this platform. This makes it easy  for those who don't want to maintain an additional account online.
How to apply for jobs on this platform
What happens is every offer tells you how to apply. For the most part, you are given an email address to send your application. Communication between bloggers and companies is not done on the platform. I think this is quite simple and straight forward. Bloggers who want to be alerted on new job offers simple signup to the platform's job rss feed.
Posting a job on this platform costs you $50

2 – BlogExpose Job Board for bloggers
This a new member in the industry with close to 500 bloggers (as a I write this post). It's another bloggers' job board that brings bloggers and companies together.
There are different types of jobs you can get on this platform. This will probably be a go to platform in the near future.
As a blogger, you can be hired and paid cash by companies who need bloggers for business blogging. Product owners are also looking to pay you (cash or free copies) to review their products (Google friendly) on your blog.
This platforms goes further to allow product owners to recruit affiliates to promote their products. In this case, product owners with affiliate programs must be able to offer special commission rates to bloggers on this platform.
Simply put, if you are paying 50% commission to your affiliates, affiliate bloggers recruited through this platform must be paid a higher commission rate.
In order to succeed with this, your affiliate program should be able to generate a unique affiliate coupon code for each blogger taking part in your promotion. Fortunately, must affiliate platforms have this facility.
One good example of affiliate platforms that has the facility to generate coupon codes tagged to affiliate accounts is Zaxaa.
Absolutely, this will help in boosting sales. I encourage bloggers who do affiliate marketing to negotiate special prices for their readers. Most product others will be ready to give you a special discount code (tied to your affiliate account) that will help your readers save some money while buying their products.
I have written a post on Donna Merrill‘s blog on how to boost affiliate sales. Check it out here
If you are also running a cash prize contest, this platform gives you the possibility to announce your contest and recruit contestants.
Posting on BlogExpose is free by the time of writing this post
How to apply for jobs on BlogExpose
To apply for jobs on this platform, you'll have to create a free account. The next thing is to complete your profile by simply briefly presenting yourself. You can also add some of your recent writers. This will help companies know more about you before making a step towards hiring you.
Once your profile is approved, you will be able to browser offers and click on a simple button to apply. This will initiate some sort of communication between you and the company.
If you are awarded a job on the platform, a ‘vote up' will automatically be applied to your account. The more ‘vote ups' you get from companies, the more you get exposed to more jobs.

Companies – How to hire bloggers for your writing jobs!
On these (and many other platforms), there are bloggers waiting to be hired. If you are not careful you may hire the wrong person.
While the hiring process should not be a pain, these are some few points to guide you through;
- Be specific in your job title
- Don't be too long or too short in your job description.
- Send 2 or more samples of the type of post you are looking for.
- Pay attention to bloggers' profiles (if they have written in the past)
- If you are not satisfied with any applicant, don't entertain anymore conversation. Avoid being distracted.
- Watch for errors while communicating with applicants: If an applicant makes a lot of mistakes while chatting with you, chances are high to commit those errors in the paid articles.
- Etc

Hi Enstine,
Great to see you here on Ileane’s blog! What you have created is wonderful. Job boards for bloggers is something that is very useful for many. I know some bloggers that are not monetizing yet, but here, they can find something to compensate them.
Even the companies that you have listed is a great way for a blogger to earn money. I did go over and check it out and it looks great! You know I’ll spread the word my friend.

My article on your blog was a remarkable success and thanks for giving me that opportunity. You have a wonderful audience and thanks for sharing this article with them.

Hi, Enstine,
How exciting to see you on Ilene’s blog. I think she’s the best, as you well know. . . Both of you were just featured on my Expert Round Up Post. You gave tremendous Value, as did Ilene, and you are doing it again here on her blog!

Oh yeah! Ileane is like the lamp unto the feet of many. From my early days in blogging, she’s been one of the bloggers we look up to for helpful materials to succeed in this industry
What a wonderful thing to be mentioned with Ileane as an expert. I followed her tips and now some others look up to me. I must be glad to make her proud.
Yes, you are one of my first sponsors and I’m excited to shout it out. That’s so much like you 😉 – always there and I’m blessed to have you around
Hope you are having a wonderful weekend too
Hey Enstine,
Good seeing you on Ms Ileane’s blog! I remember the very first time I landed a guest post here it was one of the best things that happened to me as a blogger 🙂
Now you have just shared a wonderful piece which I am sure many bloggers looking for online fortune would benefit from. When you shared the idea behind Blogexpose, I knew it’s something that will over time grow strong and it has just started.
I really appreciate this collaboration of you and Ms Ileane it’s awesome!
Do have a wonderful day ahead.

Hey Brent,
Good to see you here as well

Hi Enstine
Thanks for this awesome write up. Never heard of those sites before until now. I will definitely be checking them now. As in now 🙂
Cheers
That’s great Herbet 😉
I’ll be excited to see you on blogExpose so let me know when you signup
Hello Enstine,
Very nice sharing indeed. I would love to work on these job boards. Can you please tell me, Is there any specific requirements to get a job? Means if I am specialize in SEO, so do I need to show off my work in order to get the job.
Hi bro,
As you know, companies won’t hire you until you show some of your works. That’s why these platforms require you show some works you’ve done in the past.
Just follow instructions on the different sites
Okay.
Thats good. As a tech blogger I worked hard 1 year. I think I can represent my blog to show an example of work.
Hey Enstine,
Great post . And great to see you here on Ms. Ileane’s blog.
I’ve really only explored the Problogger one before and haven’t had a chance to check out the second one ,… never heard of the third one. But this will be an excellent source for those looking for job boards and what’s available.

Hey Andrew,
Good to see you here and thanks for the interaction 😉
Hope to see you on blogExpose, my platform 😉
BTW how is the weekend going?
thanks for sharing these. Although I have had my blog a while I am only just getting the confidence to start thinking of monetizing and doing other stuff. A really useful piece
Hi Dominique,
So excited to hear from you.
You know while you can directly post on your blog to make money, companies on these platforms can as well hire you to be their business blogger or simply write for one or two events. That’s the extent to which you can go.
Thanks for being part of this conversation. Do have a wonderful day as I hope to chat with you again
Hey Enstine, what about Envato Studio? i liked FreelanceSwitch, which were a envato product and the merged FreelanceSwitch with two other existing Envato sites: Tuts+ and Envato Studio.
Thanks for mentioning these platforms Sohel. I have come across Envato Studio for wp designs right?
These 3 I have mentioned principally are for writing jobs. I may add the design phase as an option on BlogExpose, my platform but that will be as an update 😉
Thanks for being part of this post 😉
We hardly have any such options in our country, India. Even once I have paid registration fee to become a blogger and lost it because they turned out to be a fraud in few months. Not only me, many people fall prey to them.
Hi Kumar,
Well I think these platforms don’t have any country limits. You pick a job on any of them based any where in the world.
sorry though to hear you lost money in the past. As these platforms don’t require any spending from bloggers, I think you should give them a try.
Thanks for being part of this conversation 😉
Wooaaa…I used to check only problogger and I am searched for similar job boards. Thanks for these two new job boards (these are new for me)!
Hi
Blogexpose is a good platform where blogger can easily get job and can interact with big companies which offer his services on blog expose. all other alternative also good thanks for sharing this awesome and useful information.
