70+ Sponsored Post Networks, but which ones should you join?

Updated on May 11th, 2026

If you are a blogger and you want to work with brands on sponsored posts, there is a good chance you joined a sponsored post network where you can apply for various campaigns. However, not all networks are worth joining, and a good majority are worth avoiding. In this post, I will share which sponsored post networks are worth your time to join and which ones you should definitely avoid.

This post contains affiliate links, which means I may earn a commission if you signup through one of my links, but there is no extra cost to you.

Good Networks

These good networks often have good payouts and consistently new campaigns to apply for sponsored posts. Payouts have been made in a timely manner and the customer service is great as well. I would definitely recommend joining these networks.

1. Get Blogged

Get Blogged is one of the first sponsored post networks I joined, and I definitely recommend them. There are consistently new campaigns to apply for sponsored posts and a few for link insertions, but the work can be inconsistent and you can go months with no campaigns even if you are actively applying for them. The payouts are sometimes on the low end, but you can place your own bid when applying for most campaigns. Also, I have had my higher bids accepted by several brands.

Domain authority (DA) is a big factor on Get Blogged, so the higher your DA, the higher the payment you can expect to receive. For example, the payout for a DA 20 campaign can be £40, but the same campaign for DA 30 can pay out £60. However, there are other campaigns that offer more than £40 for DA 20, and as I previously mentioned, you can place a higher bid for many of the campaigns. There are a few campaigns that will have a fixed bid, so for those, having a higher DA is better. Get Blogged takes a 12.5% fee, which is okay considering other sites charge a 30% fee or even higher. Once you have submitted your work and the brand marks the campaign as complete, you receive the money immediately. You can then cash out immediately and the money will be sent to your PayPal.

2. Intellifluence

Intellifluence is another network I highly recommend because there are regularly new campaigns to apply for. However, there can be some periods where there are no new campaigns. They do have campaigns for sponsored blog posts, but you can also apply for social media campaigns, and I have done campaigns on my blog, Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. I find that the payouts tend to be a bit higher than Get Blogged, but there are some campaigns where brands only want to pay $25 for a sponsored post. Unlike Get Blogged, you cannot place your own bid when applying for the campaign. However, when you are writing your pitch, you can write what amount you will accept, and I have had a brand accept the higher amount.

Intellifluence takes a 10% fee, which is similar to Get Blogged. However, an issue I have is that once a campaign is completed, you have to wait 15 days to receive the payment. Then, payouts to PayPal occur the following Friday if you have a balance of at least $25. It can take up to 3 weeks to receive your payment, which is a long time to wait. I have had an issue recently where I posted my work, but the brand never marked the campaign as complete. I had to wait a week for the campaign to be automatically marked as completed so it took over a month before I received my payment.

Okay Networks

These networks do have campaigns to apply for, but the main focus is often on social media. These networks are okay and they might be worth looking into. For some networks, I have applied for campaigns, but I have not worked on any paid campaigns so I do not know how the payout process is for these networks.

3. Ace Media

On Ace Media, you create a media kit that you can then send to brands. There are also campaigns you can apply for. After I first signed up, there were around 20 new opportunities in 2 months, but all of them were UK-based and they were for gifted products or tickets to events. If you are based in the UK, Ace Media may be worth looking into. However, for me, I have not been able to apply for any campaigns because I am not in the UK.

4. Activate (owns The Motherhood)

I joined Activate in 2019 and I applied for 1 campaign, which I did not get. Until now I have not looked into any campaigns. I have applied for a few more campaigns, but I still have not been accepted for any. The campaigns are mainly for social media like Instagram and TikTok. There are some campaigns where you can give your own rate. There are other campaigns that will give you a $30 gift card or for example $30 for each referral.

If you have a social media following or you are interested in affiliate marketing, it might be worth looking into. You can also filter the campaigns by platform, so if you are specifically looking for sponsored blog post opportunities, you can easily find them. When you join The Motherhood, you are directed to Activate so the campaigns on both sites are the same.

5. Afluencer

On Afluencer, you can only connect your Instagram/Facebook, Twitter, TikTok, and YouTube. There were 86 collabs available when I joined in January 2022, but only 2 were for Denmark. However, there seemed to be a good amount of international collaborations available, but there were still about half that were for the US only. There are a lot of collaborations I could potentially apply for, but many of them are for affiliate marketing. I have seen ones where you get $10-15 or 10%-30% commission for each referral.

The collabs that are not for affiliates tended to have low payouts, but there were some higher payouts. However, if you are on the free membership plan, you can only apply for 1 collab a day! If you pay $29 a month, you can apply to 3 collabs a day. For $79 you can apply to 5 collabs a day. It definitely seems like a ripoff and you should not have to pay to be able to apply to campaigns.

6. Bloggers Required

Bloggers Required is a website that lists blogging assignments. The assignments are mainly for the UK, but there are a few for the rest of Europe or the US. When you find an assignment, you will fill out a form with your pitch. The assignments are mainly for gifted products or affiliate marketing. Infrequently there are assignments that mention payment, but they are on a limited basis or they will be in combination with a gifted product so the payment will be low and around $25-50.

I have applied for several assignments and I did work with Jolie Beauty and Mål Paper in 2020. Since then another brand actually emailed me, but then they ghosted me. Since most of the assignments are for the UK and gifted items only, I considered Bloggers Required an okay network.

7. Izea

When I joined in January 2022, there were 20 projects to bid on, but they were mostly for the US only and for Instagram, but there were a few for YouTube and a blog. Tap Influence and Social Spark are different websites, but all the campaigns are the same and you sign in to your Izea account when joining them. I went through all 20 campaigns, and none of them were relevant to me, but you can place your own bid when applying so that is good to know.

8. Sway Group (same as Sway Creator and Sway Dashboard)

Swap Group is only for the US and Canada, but I signed up anyway. I tried looking up reviews for Sway Group, but half of their social media accounts have been deleted. When I first signed up, there were 5 campaigns available including 3 for Instagram and the other were 2 looking for multiple platforms including a blog, and since then, more campaigns have been added. Some of the social media campaigns have extreme requirements like 30,000 followers on Instagram or 100,000 followers on TikTok while other campaigns only require 5,000 followers on Instagram. The campaigns seemed to have high payouts with the lowest being $400 for an Instagram post and $600 for a blog post. I did apply for 2 campaigns, but I never heard back. I also noticed that Sway Group makes its payments through Lumanu instead of PayPal, which I have not used before.

Bad Networks

These networks do not have a marketplace for campaigns to apply for so you just have to wait to be picked by brands. I have no idea what prices the brands would offer to pay and there is no telling how long it could take to be picked for a campaign or if you would get picked at all. I do not recommend joining these networks unless you have extra time on your hands.

9. Acorn (https://acorninfluence.com/)

Apparently, I already had an account, but I could not find out when I signed up. There is no list of campaigns to apply for, so you just have to wait, and I have received absolutely nothing since joining. I also have an issue connecting my blog with Google Analytics, which I had no problem doing so on any other platform. Acorn is mostly inactive on social media, and I could not find any reviews except they have a 5-star rating on Facebook.

10. Buzzoole (https://buzzoole.com/)

I joined Buzzoole in January 2022, and on Buzzoole, you connect with your Facebook or Twitter account then they send you a verification email and you can then connect your blog, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Snapchat, VK, and Tumblr. Buzzoole is active on social media, but all their posts are in Italian as they are based in Italy, but it says they work with creators all over the world. I did find 2 reviews from 2020, and overall they had a positive experience. There are no campaigns and you just have to wait to be selected by their algorithm, but there is no telling when or if that would ever happen.

11. Clever / CLKS Digital (https://www.realclever.com/)

I joined Clever in January 2022 and connected my blog, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, and Facebook, and you can also connect your YouTube, TikTok, and, Twitch. Again, there are no campaigns to apply for and you just have to wait for them to email you about a campaign. They are active on social media, and on Facebook, they have a 4.6 out of 5-star rating, but all but 1 of the ratings are from 2013-2014.

12. Find Your Influence (https://findyourinfluence.com/)

I joined in January 2022 and connected my blog, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest, and you can also connect your YouTube and TikTok. There are no campaigns to apply for and it says that an offer will be sent to you once you are selected for a campaign. They are active on social media, but I read an overview of Find Your Influence that they removed reviews from Facebook, which is veering toward shady territory.

13. Getlinko (https://getlinko.com/)

Getlinko is based in Spain, but they are for bloggers worldwide. On Getlinko, you register as an editor to publish sponsored posts on your blog. Getlinko is active on social media, but I could not find any reviews. Once you register, you add your blog and set your price for a post. Then you are supposed to wait for orders, but there is no telling how long it would take for you to receive an order. Also, you have the option to outsource the writing of the post for €20, which I thought was a bit strange, but if you are extra busy and do not have time to write the post, I guess it makes sense.

14. Klear / Meltwater (https://klear.com/)

I joined Klear in January 2022, and there is no marketplace and instead, you create an offer such as writing a blog post or creating an Instagram grid post and set your own price. Then you are supposed to wait for a brand to accept your offer. They are slightly active on Instagram, but I have only found reviews from brands that recommend using Klear to find influencers.

15. Open Influence (https://openinfluence.com/)

I joined in January 2022 and connected my blog and social media accounts, and again, there is no marketplace and they say that if a project comes along that they think you would be a good fit for, they will reach out. They are active on social media, and they have a 4.5-star rating on Facebook, but literally, all the ratings are from September 2017, and I have not found any more reviews.

16. Publisuites (https://www.publisuites.com/)

On Publisuites, you join to publish sponsored guest posts and social media posts and I joined in January 2023. You add your blog, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, the main topics you blog about, topics that you prohibit, and prices for blog and social media posts. You will then be contacted when an advertiser is interested in publishing a post. On Publisuites website they state, “The time lap between signing up and receiving your first order may vary” so there is no telling how long you will have to wait to receive a request. Publisuites is active on social media, and I read a review from a blogger that they worked with them many times and had no issues with payouts, but I have not found any other reviews and again, you have to wait to be selected first.

17. ValuedVoice (https://www.valuedvoice.com/)

ValuedVoice does not have a marketplace, so you have to wait for jobs to be sent to you. I signed up in January 2022 and added my blog and social media handles, but I have not received anything since. ValuedVoice is active on social media, and I read a few reviews of people who were paid a decent rate to write reviews on their blog and social media accounts, but you have to be selected first.

18. Webfluential (https://webfluential.com/)

I joined Webfluential in January 2022, and on there, you create a media kit to send to brands and they give you a suggested price for blog and social media posts, but you can set your own prices. You then have the option to connect with local brands and there were only 2 brands I could connect with, but the first was for a subscription box that no longer exists (the website and social media accounts have been deleted) and the other was SAS airlines. After you “connect” with the brands (they say that they send a note to the brand that you want to work with them), then you just wait to be selected for a campaign. Webfluential has not been active on social media recently, and I have not found any reviews.

19. #paid (https://hashtagpaid.com/)

I joined in January 2022, and on #paid, you can only connect your Instagram and TikTok accounts and that is it. You then set your own rates for an Instagram grid post, story, etc. From there, it says they will match you with brands to partner with. They are active on social media, but they only have a single 5-star review on Facebook.

Networks to Avoid

These networks are shady or scammy in that they have ridiculously low payments and enormous fees (35-60% of your payment), their services are questionable, and in general, they have bad reviews. I also included networks that I applied for but never heard anything back as well as those that are inactive, but their websites are still up and they are still included on lists of networks to join in 2022.

20. Accessily (https://accessily.com/)

You join Accessily to sell guest posts with either a do-follow or a no-follow link. You are able to set your own price for the posts, but the fees are SO HIGH. If you charge $150 for a guest post, you will only earn $90!!! Where did the $60 go because it only says there is only a 10% processing and handling fee, and if that was the case, then you should get $135, not $90. To get the $150, you would have to charge $250, but it is like where is the $100 going because 10% of $250 is only $25. I definitely do not recommend joining because you will lose out on a lot of money with the 60% fee.

21. Adsy (https://adsy.com/)

On Adsy, you offer guest posts on your blog. There were a lot of offers to apply for, but many of the offers are for sites I would never want to work with such as casinos, questionable health sites, escort services, and car-related websites. I would not recommend joining Adsy since you would have to wade through all the offers to find maybe one or two that would be worthwhile. But if you have no problem working with those sites, you may want to look into Adsy and their fee is only 7.9%.

22. AspireIQ (https://aspire.io/)

I cannot join AspireIQ because I am in Denmark and it says that many brands only ship to the US. I found 1 review from a blogger in 2019 and they did not recommend joining because they would apply for many campaigns but would only get 1-2, so they felt like it was a waste of time. However, I feel like that issue is not exclusive to AspireIQ because on many of the networks you can apply to 10 campaigns and not get a single one. Since I cannot join the site and I have not seen any other reviews for AspireIQ, I will include it on the avoid list.

23. Authentic Bloggers (https://bloggercollabs.com/)

I filled out the Google Form to create a blog listing and from there be connected to brands, but I never heard anything back. Most of their social links take you to their “List Your Blog” page so I cannot even see if they are active on social media. Only their Facebook page link worked and it was created in Nov 2021, but it has not been active since.

24. Awesome Growth (https://marketplace.awesomegrowth.com/)

I tried signing up for Awesome Growth, but I never received a confirmation email and there is no way to request the confirmation again as it just says to click the confirmation email they sent. I then checked their social media accounts and they have 0 posts on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook even though the accounts were created in 2020, so it definitely seems like they are inactive. Now when I try to visit the Awesome Growth website, I get the “This site can’t be reached” error.

25. Blog Meets Brand / BabbleBoxx (https://www.blogmeetsbrand.com/)

When I joined in January 2022, there were 3 campaigns available to apply for, but none were for me as I am not a YouTuber nor a travel influencer and I am not going to be an affiliate. However, months later there are still only the same 3 campaigns. I do not recommend joining because there is no telling how long they have had the same 3 campaigns and when and if they get new campaigns.

They are active on social media, and they have mentioned new campaigns on their Facebook page, and they want you to send them an email if you fit the campaign. I would recommend following them on Facebook if you are based in the US as it seems like that is the only way to find out about new campaigns. There was also a comment on one of their Facebook posts asking if Blog Meets Brand was going out of business because there have been no new campaigns on the website, but they replied and said that they are still in business and they have new campaigns.

26. BlogDash (http://www.blogdash.com/)

BlogDash’s site is under development, and I cannot find any social media accounts so it does seem like they are inactive.

27. Bloggin’ Mamas (http://blogginmamas.com/)

Bloggin’ Mamas is only for the US and you have to pick your local chapter which is based in different cities in the US. I looked for reviews for Bloggin’ Mamas and I found bloggers who were with Bloggin’ Mamas and they received different products to review and were paid to write the blog posts, but most of the posts seemed to be from 2014-2018.

Bloggin’ Mamas’ social media accounts were last active in November 2021 and they do post sponsored opportunities on their own blog, but the last one was in October 2021 so it seems like they are somewhat active. However, the opportunities seem infrequent and according to their blog, there were only 7 in 2021 and even fewer in 2020. I do not know if there are more opportunities that are not posted on their blog, but if they are actually that infrequent, I would not recommend joining even if you do live in the US.

28. Brand Backer (https://www.brandbacker.com/)

You can sign up to Brand Backer with your blog, YouTube or Instagram, and if sign up with a blog, you have to add a badge to your blog before they will send you a signup email because they want to confirm the blog is yours. I know there are other ways you can prove ownership of a blog (the main way I have noticed is by connecting to Google Analytics), and I did not want to have a badge on my blog when I know nothing about the site. I also checked and for YouTube, you have to follow their channel and add #BrandBacker to your about page, and for Instagram, you have to follow their Instagram account and add #BrandBacker to your bio. Both Brand Backer’s Facebook and Twitter were last active in 2015, their YouTube in 2018, and their Instagram in 2021.

For the sake of this post, I added the badge to my blog as it says their system checks every hour for the badge and to email them if it has been more than 4 hours with no signup link. As you may have guessed, I had the badge on my blog for more than 4 hours and there was no signup email. I definitely did not want to email them because there is no telling how long it would take for them to get back to me or even if they would get back to me at all and again, I am not going to keep the badge up on my blog for an indefinite time when I know nothing about the site.

I did find 2 bloggers who worked with Brand Backer in 2016 and 2019, and both had positive experiences and they would receive products to review, but there is no telling if Brand Backer has changed since then or if they are even still active. A commenter did mention that Brand Backer was one of their favorite networks, but they did not follow up on my questions.

UPDATE: A month after publishing this post, I was accepted into Brand Backer despite never receiving a signup email and removing the badge on my blog. However, when I checked their campaigns, there were no open campaigns to apply for. Also, many of the closed campaigns were for the US only and the compensation was free products. Out of 40 previous recent campaigns, only 2 were paid.

29. Brand Snob (https://www.brandsnob.co/)

For Brand Snob, you have to download an app that is only on the app store so I am automatically disqualified because I have a Samsung phone. Apparently, the app now shut down so you literally cannot do anything. Their Instagram and Facebook were last active in January 2021, so they are inactive for good. Also, I saw on Instagram there was an influencer who never got paid before the app shut down, which is definitely shady. Now the website has an error stating the website is not connected to a domain.

30. Collaborator (https://collaborator.pro/)

On Collaborator, you sign up to sell ads (sponsored guest posts) on your blog. I added my blog, confirmed I owned my blog through Google Analytics, and added the description of my blog and the prices I charge. My blog was sent to moderation, and within 10 minutes, my blog was approved. There were no new campaigns available, but the website states there are new campaigns added weekly. However, since joining, there have been no new campaigns and I have not received any orders for guest posts even though when I was setting my price, the website stated my pricing was “excellent”.

Collaborator has only 5-star reviews on Trustpilot from brands who have bought guest posts, but all the reviews are from May-June 2022. Also, all the reviewers only have 1 total review on their account so I believe they were either paid to write the reviews or they work for Collaborator. On Facebook, Collaborator has 3.4 out of 5 stars based on 18 reviews with the most recent reviews from 2022 not recommending them. I would not recommend joining because there are no new campaigns added and their reviews are definitely fishy.

31. Collectively (https://collectivelyinc.com/)

I applied to Collectively and included my blog and social media accounts, the list of brands I have worked with, and brands that I would like to work with that are on their platform. They said I would receive a response in 5-7 business days, but I never got a response. They are somewhat active on social media, and I could send an email to check on the status, but I did not care to.

32. Conexoo (https://www.conexoo.com/)

Conexoo is a Spanish company, but it seems they accept bloggers worldwide. You sign up and add your blog to write sponsored blog posts. They are active on social media, but I could not find any reviews. I signed up to check out the site, but they require a DNI/CIF, which is a Spanish tax identification number and you cannot complete your profile without one. However, I just entered 0 and it was accepted. You can add your blog and how much you charge per post, but there is also no marketplace, so there is no telling how long it would take for a brand to want to work with you.

One interesting thing about the site is that when you go to their support, you can see how many total support tickets there are (139 at the time of this post), and out of the 139 tickets, there are 124 open tickets and 15 closed tickets. I did open a ticket for them to delete my profile as there is no option in settings, and sure enough, the total number and open tickets number increased. It seems a bit questionable that they would have so many open tickets. They did get back to me a day later and asked why I wanted to delete my account, but after I replied, they have not gotten back or deleted my account.

33. Considerable Influence (https://considerableinfluence.com/)

I am unsure when, but I previously made an account on Considerable Influence and I added my blog, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn and set my starting rate. When I checked now, there were 14 campaigns open for applications, but the most recent campaign is 5 months old and the next recent campaign is 27 months old! There are infrequently new campaigns, so it is not really worth joining if there is only 1 new campaign a year. Now the Considerable Influence website cannot be reached.

34. Constant Content (https://www.constant-content.com/)

On Constant Content, you write and sell articles. First, you have to do a 5 question English grammar quiz then submit an article that has not been published before. Guidelines for the article include not writing in the first-person point of view, not writing a work of fiction, and not writing promotional content. If the article is accepted, it will be published, and you will receive 65% of the sale price, and the sale price you set yourself, but I do not know why there is a 35% fee.

I found 2 reviews from 2018 and 2020 that do not recommend joining because if you are asked to revise an article, you will not be paid a revising fee and there is no guarantee your article will be accepted and sold. I definitely would not recommend joining because the 35% fee is way too high and you are better off joining a network where you can publish sponsored posts on your own blog.

35. Copypress (https://app.copypresscms.com/)

On Copypress. you can sign up as a publisher to publish posts on your blog and you can set the rate you charge, or a writer where you write posts and set your rate for each word, or an editor where you edit posts. I read reviews from writers that clients demand work that would normally pay a rate of 15 cents a word, but they would only pay 6 cents a word and many of the articles require research. Some writers made an average of $32 for 750 words and I read another review where they were only paid $30 for a post.

Some also worked as an editor and they were only paid 1 cent a word so you would only make a few dollars per post. Also, many of the reviews said it takes a long time to get paid – at least 3 months. I do not recommend joining as a writer or an editor because you make barely any money and you have to wait a long time to be paid. I have not seen any reviews from publishers, but if they are paying the writers and editors so little, I would also expect the pay to be little to have a post published on your blog.

36. Cooperatize (https://www.cooperatize.com/)

Cooperatize is for travel bloggers and micro-influencers, but when you are applying, there are 20 other blog categories to choose from. They are inactive on social media, but their own blog is active. I could not find any reviews, but when I signed up, I never received a confirmation email, and I actually did send an email to follow up. Obviously, there is an issue with confirmation emails because they specifically state on their website that if you do not receive a confirmation email within 15 minutes then you should send them an email. I never got an email back from them about the confirmation email. Now the website redirects you to 1WIN India, which is a casino and sports betting website in India.

37. Coobis (https://coobis.com/)

Coobis is based in Spain, but they accept bloggers worldwide and you join to write sponsored posts or publish pre-written sponsored posts on your blog. However, I read some terrible reviews from bloggers and on their Facebook page including that you have to upload your passport and certificate of residence to get paid, and even if you do that there are bloggers that have been waiting 2-3 months for their payouts. I also read that they pay up to $40 for writing a sponsored post, which is not a lot and another review said that the payments are very low and they do not recommend joining. There are also reviews that say that customer service is unfriendly, of no help, and sometimes they will not even get back to you, so I definitely do not recommend joining. Now their website comes up with “Error 404 Page Not Found”.

38. Dealspotr (https://dealspotr.com/)

Dealspotr is a website to find deals and coupons while online shopping, but they also have The Influencer Marketplace. I joined in 2019, but I never really looked into it until now. I had 5 messages within the last year with the most recent being from 3 months ago, and they were all from brand reps to send me products from Amazon to review. 2 of the messages were shady and they wanted me to contact them outside of Dealspotr.

When I checked the campaigns, there were 72 pages of campaigns available. Some of the campaigns will send you a free product and some campaigns will pay you based on your influencer score. Your influencer score is based on your reach, engagement, and activity level on various platforms, and apparently, I have an influencer score of 3 so I would only be paid $16 for a blog post. You can apply to 3 campaigns a day, but there is no option to hide campaigns you do not qualify for so you literally have to go through countless pages before even finding 1 campaign you can actually apply for.

Since Dealspotr is an online coupon site, it is impossible to find reviews of people who have joined the influencer marketplace since all the reviews are only for how Dealspotr has fake coupons or from people who have made money by sharing and verifying the coupons (not the influencer marketplace). Dealspotr does give me shady vibes given the fact that I have been asked to send messages outside of Dealspotr and it feels like there is no quality control for campaigns and any brand can add whatever product they want and they might not actually send you the product or pay you for the post.

39. Encatena (https://www.encatena.com/)

On Encatena, you sign up as an editor to provide sponsored content on your blog. I added my blog and set my prices for sponsored posts and link insertions. You can also set the price for ads on your blog. From there, they will review your blog, but weeks later my blog is still pending approval. I could not find any social media accounts for Encatena and their own blog was last active in 2020.

I did find a blogger’s post on Encatena from 2019, but they were waiting for paid orders from them and they were recommending other bloggers to join because they have a referral program. Based on this, I would say Encatena is most likely inactive and even if they were active, you would have to wait to be contacted by brands who want you to write sponsored content on your blog. Now the website redirects you to Rb88rb which is a banking-related website.

40. Enchanting Digital (https://enchantingdigital.com/)

Enchanting Digital is for parents who want to work with children’s brands, but all their social media accounts except for Pinterest have been deleted and their own blog was last active in June 2021. When you go to sign up, the Google Doc has been deleted, so they are inactive. Now the website cannot be reached.

41. Find Your Influencer (https://www.findyourinfluencer.co.uk/)

On Find Your Influencer, you register as an influencer with your blog, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube and include your niche and follower counts. I submitted the form in September 2022, and I was told I will hear from them soon, but I never heard anything back. They also have not been active on their social media accounts (Facebook and Instagram) and their own blog since June 2022.

42. Flyout (https://flyout.io/)

I tried joining Flyout, but it said that I can only charge a maximum of $27 for a sponsored blog post and I could not put a higher amount!!! I have no idea how they calculate their maximum price, but it is wrong that they will not let you put more than their max because there is no way I would accept $27 for a sponsored post. Now the website domain is available for sale.

43. Fourstarzz Media (https://www.fourstarzz.com/)

Fourstarzz Media is only for social media and YouTube, so you cannot add your blog. Once you add your social media accounts, audience metrics, and the price you charge for a social media post or video, you have to wait for brands to contact you. They do say that you keep 100% of the compensation, but if no brands contact you then does not matter. They have not been active on social media since last year and they only have one 5-star review from 2017 on Facebook, and I have not found any other reviews. Now the website redirects you to MAX77! which seems to be a sports betting site.

44. Get Reviewed (https://getreviewed.org/)

I joined in January 2022 and added my blog and included my price to write sponsored posts, and it was pending and waiting to be approved. I checked in March 2022, my blog status is still pending. Their social media accounts are somewhat active, and I found reviews from 2020 and earlier, and they were mixed. I would not recommend joining because it has been more than 3 months and my blog still has not been approved or rejected.

45. Getfluence (https://getfluence.com/)

I registered as a publisher to monetize my blog, but even though I only registered as a publisher, I have to list my business and include the VAT number before I can add my blog. Most blogs are not businesses, so I do not know why I have to have a VAT number for a business as I am not a brand or an agency. I thought I made a mistake when I was registering, but the only options are to register as an advertiser, a publisher, or a combination of both, but if you select advertiser or both advertiser and publisher, you have to say if you are a brand or agency, which I know I definitely did not do.

Also, all the emails I received from Getfluence say that I have created a publisher account and now I just need to add my site, but I cannot do that because I have to fill in my business information. The Facebook reviews for Getfluence are positive, but most of them are from June 4th and 5th 2019, so it defintiely seems like they were paid to write the reviews.

46. Influence (https://influence.co/)

On Influence, you can add your blog, social media accounts, and YouTube, and after adding my accounts there were 245 out of 2,645 campaigns available where I met the minimum follower requirements and there were available to do in Denmark. However, on Influence, you can only apply to 10 campaigns a week, and I think it is wrong when networks try to limit how many campaigns you can apply for.

The campaigns tend to be mostly for social media and affiliate marketing. You also cannot filter by platform so you have to click on each campaign to see if they want a blog post or a social media post or a video. I have also noticed that for paid campaigns, they do not list a payment, but it seems like you can tell your own rate. I have not found any campaigns that are relevant to me, but I also have not made my way through 200+ listings. If you have the time and you are interested in mainly social media or affiliate marketing campaigns, it might be worth looking into.

UPDATE: The website now leads to an internal error message, which forces me to move Influence down to networks to avoid.

47. Heartbeat (https://heartbeat.com/)

I was actually sent a recruiting email to join Heartbeat and I joined then, but I am not sure how long ago that was. Heartbeat is only for Instagram and TikTok and only for the US. Apparently, my rate they calculated is $12 for an Instagram post and you cannot change it. It is recommended to download their app, which I know I did when I first signed up. They have a ton of survey-like questions to answer, and you are supposed to get more campaigns when you do them, but I remember doing all of them and not getting any campaigns for months and I deleted the app.

When I checked in February 2022, there was only 1 campaign to apply for, which was an Instagram post for Poshmark. I checked the reviews for the app, and people have not been paid for campaigns, customer service does not respond, and people cannot verify their Instagram or TikTok accounts to even join. Also, I saw someone who had 12,000 Instagram followers and they were only offered $20 for a post. I would avoid Heartbeat because there is the issue of not paying for campaigns and the payouts are so low. Now the website domain is for sale.

48. Influenster (https://www.influenster.com/)

I joined Influenster back in 2013 when I lived in the US as they were only US-based at the time (now they are international). At first, I did receive VoxBoxes with products to review and I wrote posts on my Tumblr and did social media posts, but it was all for free and I did not receive any monetary compensation. I actually did 2 posts on my blog in 2017 for the Lancome VoxBox and the L’Oreal VoxBox, but since then, I have received nothing and the website itself has shifted to being a review site and a place where you can ask questions about products, answer snaps, which are questions about products you use which then encourages you to write reviews for them. It seems like they do still send out VoxBoxes, but it has definitely slowed down.

There are mixed reviews from people who have been active on the Influenster app and website because they never received a single VoxBox. Also, people have done cashback campaigns where they purchase an item to get money back, but they never received the money back. If you are looking for sponsored posts, I do not recommend joining because you will only receive products for free. Also, it is a lot of work just for free products (blog reviews, social media posts, reviews on the brand’s websites, etc.) and even if you are active on Influenster, there is no guarantee you will be sent a VoxBox.

49. Influence Central (https://influence-central.com/)

I cannot join as Influence Central is only for the US and Canada, and I cannot find any reviews for the site. The websites that have lists of networks to join just say that it is a review site and you can be paid to write product reviews and the payments will vary. I do not know how much the payments are or even if the payouts out are made in a timely manner. A commenter mentioned that they have joined Influence Central, but there have not been many campaigns on the website. Now the website cannot be reached.

50. Influenceher (https://www.influencehercollective.com/)

Influenceher is very much looking for US-based influencers in college, but I applied anyways in January 2022, but I never heard anything back. Influencerher is active on Instagram and one of their latest posts was a roundup of the January paid campaigns they did for Sephora, Kate Spade, and Diva Cup. I found blog reviews from 2018-2019, and the bloggers would receive a box of items to review, and they were monetarily compensated for the post too. If you are a college student in the US, you could maybe try applying.

51. Ifluenz (https://www.ifluenz.com/)

Ifluenz is only for Instagram, and I added my username, but it could not fetch the data and said they were experiencing technical issues and working on fixing it. Their own Instagram was last active in June 2021, which is bad if their whole platform is just for Instagram. I read comments on their Instagram posts and people were saying Ifluenz is a scam because they do not pay and they have been trying to reach out for their payment. I also checked Trust Pilot, and there were only 1-star reviews, so they are definitely a scam.

52. Insense (https://insense.pro/)

Insense is only for Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. You can be invited to campaigns, but there are also public campaigns, and when I joined, there were 2 campaigns available, but they were for TikTok and YouTube. I then apparently did not pass moderation because of my audience quality on Instagram because there was a mismatch between my audience size and engagement rate or they could not verify my followers.

53. Linkable (https://link-able.com/)

It seems that on Linkable you can be paid to insert links into your posts. I applied in February 2022, but I never heard anything back. Their social media accounts were created in 2018, but they were never active. I am going to say that they are inactive.

54. LinkDeploy (https://linkdeploy.com/)

On LinkDeploy, you register to sell backlinks, but first, you need to pass a check for website content, domain authority, traffic, and quality, which apparently my blog did not meet. I do not know the minimum requirements except for the website content check, you need at least 10 pages indexed by Google, which I know my blog has. Even if you are accepted by LinkDeploy, you will first have to lease backlinks meaning that the payment is split into 12 months so will you only receive $2-8 per month (for a total of $24-96). I do not agree with splitting the payment because I believe you should be paid upfront for link insertions. However, if you do pass the website check, it might be worth looking into, but I have not found any reviews of people who were paid to do link insertions.

55. Link Ninja (https://linkninja.io/)

On Link Ninja, you can add sponsored guest posts or paid link insertions to your blog. I created an account on Link Ninja and added my blog. However, it said my DA was 26, so the website is definitely using outdated information. There were 20 link requests, but 9 requests were looking for a Dutch website, 8 were for an English website, 2 were for a French website, and 1 was for a German website. The budgets ranged from €15-€150 for a guest post or link insertion, which the higher end is not bad, but out of the English requests, they were for medical and healthcare, cyber security, sports, gambling, and other topics that are not at all relevant to my blog.

If there is a link request that interests you, you can view the contact information and send them an email, but I would prefer if you could message them directly through the Link Ninja website. I would not recommend joining Link Ninja because even though there are some new requests, the requests are not frequent and from July 2022-January 2023, there were only 8 new requests, and the topics for link insertions or guest posts are not topics that I would personally do.

56. Linqia (https://www.linqia.com/)

When you register for Linqia, there is a pop-up that says they are only for the US and Canada, but you can select all countries when applying, so I applied anyway in February 2022. I then connected my blog and social media accounts, and it said they were reviewing my application, but I never heard anything back. Their own social media accounts are inactive, but they made a few recent posts on Instagram after being inactive since 2020. I found reviews from 2019 and they were mostly positive, but there were several reviews saying campaigns came to a standstill and customer support is slow at getting back. I think they are inactive, but they may be starting back up.

57. Markerly (https://markerly.com/)

I applied in January 2022 and submitted my blog, but I never heard anything back. They have overwhelmingly positive reviews on their Facebook page, but it was a bit suspicious to me since most of the reviews are from Dec 2020-May 2021. I looked more into the reviews and I found about 10 reviews that were copy-pasted so they definitely paid people to publish a prewritten review or they had people who work at Markerly to publish them. Now the website comes up with a “404 Page Not Found” error.

58. Mavrck (https://www.mavrck.co/)

I applied in January 2022 and included my blog, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and Pinterest accounts, and I included the link for the list of brands I have worked with, but I never heard anything back. They seem to have positive reviews with the most recent from December 2021.

59. Neoreach (https://neoreach.com/)

I applied in January 2022 and added my blog, Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook, but never I received a reply. They are active on social media, but I only found a few reviews, and they were positive, but none of them were recent.

60. One2One Network (http://one2onenetwork.com/)

Their website comes back with a 404 error and their Facebook has been inactive since 2019 and their Instagram has been inactive since 2017, so it definitely seems like they are inactive. One2One Network used a platform created by Markerly (which is the website that had the copy-pasted reviews), but I am unsure if Markerly owned them.

61. Paypercontent (https://www.paypercontent.net/)

On Paypercontent, you apply to publish pre-written sponsored posts on your blog. You need a minimum of a DA 10 to join, but I heard from another blogger that they only pay $1 per DA so if you have a DA 20, you would only be paid $20 to publish a post. They have not been active on social media since 2019, and on Facebook, they have mostly negative reviews saying they are a scam and their content is low quality. You can also apply to write articles or blog posts that will not be published on your blog, but I read many reviews saying they are super strict with who they accept and again they are a scam and do not pay.

62. PayU2Blog (https://www.payu2blog.com/)

I applied in January 2022 and submitted my blog and social media accounts to do sponsored posts with a focus on link insertions, but I never heard anything back. I read reviews and apparently they pay $5 for a 60-word blog post, but on their own website, they claim they pay $25-200. It definitely seems like it would come off as spammy if you are writing a bunch of 60-word posts. Also, I read that you cannot pick and choose the offers they send you and you have to accept all of them whether it is about furniture or car accessories, or payday loans.

Furthermore, I read a post about how a blogger was kicked out of PayU2Blog because they worked with Izea (which I listed under the Okay Networks), and PayU2Blog claimed it was a conflict of interest to be on both platforms. In the post, they also wrote that when their friend left the platform, they were bad-mouthed on the PayU2Blog private forums, and if you disagreed with someone on the forum, everyone would go against you. PayU2Blog definitely seems toxic and I do not know if they are still like that now, but I do not want to find out and I am perfectly fine they did not get back to me.

63. Pollinate (http://whoispollinate.com)

Pollinate has not been active since 2020 on social media and their application asks for your Google+ URL (Google+ shut down in 2019) and Klout score (Klout shut down in 2018) so it definitely seems they are inactive.

64. Quotient (https://influencers.quotient.com/) (previously known as Ahalogy)

I tried signing up, but when I pressed the submit button, nothing happened. Then I tried logging in with my email and password, but there was a continuous loading screen. I requested my password to see if I actually signed up, and I was sent an email to change my password, so the signup was successful. Then I went back to sign in and there was the same loading screen. I thought maybe it was a glitch and I tried logging in on a different day, week, even month, but there is still the same loading screen. Now the website comes up with an error that a domain is not connected.

65. SeedingUp (https://www.seedingup.com/)

I cannot sign up for SeedingUp as I live in Denmark and Denmark is not on their list of countries. I did look into reviews of those that did join, and they are not good. The reviews mentioned that it took a whole year to get paid because they only pay 1/12th of the payment each month, and the company has been bankrupt before for doing shady business and now they changed their name to SeedingUp.

66. SHE Media (https://www.shemedia.com/partner-network) (owns Blogher https://www.blogher.com/)

I applied to SHE Media in January 2022, and I was rejected a week later. The requirements to join are to have a minimum of 20,000 page views per month, a site that is at least 90 days old, posted at least once a week for the last 90 days, creating content that is long enough to support advertising (over 300 words per post), a clean layout with a responsive design, and most of your audience is in the US and female. I was then encouraged to reapply in 6 months. Even though I am interested in their marketplace, SHE media also has an advertising network, which I heard is good, but I could not find a review for their marketplace so I do not know if it is worth it to join if you do meet the requirements.

67. Shoutcart (https://shoutcart.com/)

Shoutcart is only for social media platforms and YouTube, but they are looking for bigger accounts and you need to have at least 10,000 followers for Instagram, 10,000 fans for Facebook, 3,000 followers for Twitter, 1,000 fans for TikTok, and 1,000 subs for YouTube. On Shoutcart you can create a gig and set your own price, and I had a look at the current gigs others are offering and most of them are to grow an Instagram or TikTok account.

The main purpose of Shoutcart is to sell a shoutout for a brand and grow that brand’s account. I found one influencer on TikTok and all they did was add a link to a product in 1 of their regular videos. I also read reviews that Shoutcart takes a large fee – up to 40%, it takes forever to get paid after you do the shoutout, and they have bad customer service, so I would not recommend them.

68. Social Fabric (https://socialfabric.us/)

Social Fabric is for blogs, Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, and Youtube, but the only countries listed are US and Canada so I cannot join. I cannot find any social media accounts for Social Fabric, but I did find 2 reviews from 2017. One review was concerned by the lack of information on Social Fabric’s website – literally, there are less than 150 words and there is no way to find out more information about them. They also wrote that there is a marketplace with campaigns to apply for, but the payouts are low.

The other review was overwhelmingly positive and they were able to work with so many brands, but they did not mention payments. Since I cannot apply for Social Fabric, and I cannot find any social media accounts or more recent reviews, I will include them in the avoid section. Since writing this post, a commenter said they joined Social Fabric and the network is legit, but there have not been many new campaigns.

69. The Blogger Programme (https://www.thebloggerprogramme.com/)

Apparently, I joined in 2017 and I connected my blog and social media accounts, but I was never invited by any brands to opportunities. One big con is that my social media accounts and my blog’s DA never updated and it still shows my blog has a DA of 19 when I have not had a DA below 20 in years and that I have 1,500 followers on Instagram when I am now over 3,000. The same thing happened with Twitter and it says I have 3.000 followers, but now I am over 6,000. There is also no way of reconnecting your accounts to update them.

There is a marketplace and there were 31 opportunities available, but only 3 applicable. Many of the opportunities are for Instagram and some require 10,000+ followers on all your social media accounts. I checked The Blogger Programme’s Instagram and apparently many others are having issues with their follower counts not updating so you are automatically disqualified from campaigns even though you meet the requirement of having X amount of followers, and The Blogger Programme does not respond to emails or DMs.

70. The Room (https://www.theroom.io/)

I applied in January 2022, and it seems to be only for social media. I was denied without any real reason within hours of applying – they have a large number of applications so they cannot accept everyone, and there was no mention of any requirements to be accepted. Then I read on their Instagram that others have applied months ago and never heard anything back. In their FAQ, there is nothing about the criteria it takes to be approved, so it seems like you have to be handpicked by them.

71. Tomoson (https://www.tomoson.com/)

Apparently, I joined years ago, but my account was deactivated. I did not care to reactivate it as the brands on there mainly only want Amazon reviews. I read reviews for Tomoson, and they have horrible customer service and if you do not receive the product to review, they will lock your account instead of helping you. Someone had their account locked several times because they will give you 14 days to write a review, but if the item is coming from China, it can take a month or longer to get. Also, sometimes you have to pay for shipping and a percentage of the item’s cost so you are not even getting it for free to review. Tomoson does have some paid campaigns, but the brands want you to work for free and they will not pay you. I strongly recommend avoiding them. Now the website is undergoing maintenance.

72. Upfluence (https://www.upfluence.com/)

I first signed up with my Facebook and Instagram and then you can connect to other social media platforms and YouTube. That is literally all you can do on the Upfluence website. Then you have to download their Google Chrome extension, visit your social media accounts, click on the extension, and then it will tell you your engagement rate. From there you can update your info for your social media accounts in the extension such as your bio and tags. The extension does mention that you are able to add your blog, but it did not work for my blog.

Then after that, I have no idea what you are supposed to do. It seems like brands will then connect with you, but I have no idea how that works when you do not even have an actual Upfluence profile page and everything is done through the extension and literally all you can do in the extension is visit your social media accounts and update your info.

73. Weave Made Media (http://weavemade.com/)

Their website does not load as it is just a blank white page and their social media accounts were last active in 2020, so it definitely seems they are inactive.

74. WeSponsored (https://www.wesponsored.com/)

I cannot sign up for WeSponsored as Denmark is not on their list of countries (the US, Canada, the UK, Ireland, Germany, and the Philippines are the only countries). I checked WeSponsored’s Instagram, and they have not paid out numerous influencers, so I do not recommend joining.
