PayPerPost Pays Bloggers to Link to Paid PayPerPost Posts

Pay_per_post_123.jpg

Is it just us or has this PayPerPost thing gone to far? PayPerPost is the company that pays bloggers to write positive posts about a brand. Now the company has launched an affiliate program that promises to pay other bloggers recruit other bloggers and pay them to link to the posts written by the original PayPerPost bloggers. Let’s see if we can get this straight. PayPerPost is going to pay bloggers to link to other blogger’s content, for which the sole reason of its existence was cash changing hands. Is anyone else having a WTF moment about this right now? Have these PayPerPost people lost all sense of reality? There are so many things wrong with this on so many levels.
