How To Make Sponsored Post Less Annoying



AnnoyedBefore I started posting sponsored post, I will be annoyed when I saw sponsored post on other blogs, especially when I’m reading using feed reader. And now, even me myself is writing sponsored post, and I feel there’s nothing wrong with them now.

To know how to make a sponsored post less annoying, according to the scientific method, you have to first identify the problem. According to my experience, a sponsored post will be annoying when it’s posted alone. When I check for new posts from a blog, but it only shows a new sponsored post and nothing else, I will be annoyed. Especially when I’m reading via feed reader, when it says there’s a new post, I will expect something good to read, but when it turns out to be a sponsored post - I’m annoyed.

Whenever there’s a problem, there’s a solution. It only matters if you bother to look for it. To make your sponsored post less annoying, I recommend not to publish a sponsored post alone - but publish it along with one or a few non-sponsored post. For example, you took an opportunity from PayPerPost, get a few non-sponsored post ready to be published before posting the sponsored one. After you’ve finish writing the sponsored post, publish it, and publish the other non-sponsored post you’ve written before this.


By doing so, your readers will first read your non-sponsored post, later when they’ve finished, they will be satisfied. They will then proceed to other post and finally see your sponsored post. As they’ve already read something they wanted too before this, the sponsored post doesn’t really matters them. Same goes to the feed reader. It will be annoying to expect a new post, but it appears to be a sponsored one. If you have a few other new post, they will at least have something else to read.

This only applies to those who can’t write sponsored post interestingly. If you feel that your visitors enjoy reading both non-sponsored and sponsored post, you have to do nothing. Basically, all you have to do is to post a few non-sponsored entries after the sponsored one right after the sponsored post is published. There’s still other factors that may make a sponsored post to be annoying, think of it and come out with your own solution, share it with us here if you don’t mind.

This should be the first blogging tips eve posted here, I’m practicing to write better. :D
