Wall-E was all about changing the world one piece of trash at a time. Well, Spark-E is all about changing the world one blog at a time. I have seen how blogs can truly change things for people, and I want you to be a part of that.

I was one of ten awesome bloggers that were chosen to be part of an exciting adventure for 2009 from Izea.com. As an insider, I am privy to top secret news that only my crew members get to know about, I'll be giving out swag, and possibly even some meetups! I already know I'll have some Izeafest tickets to give out!

Why should you sign up with social spark? It is a great way to make money online. You can pick what things you want to talk about. Sometimes you are writing about things that you check out online. Other times you have the product in hand (http://mythoughtsideasandramblings.com/2009/04/09/walking-for-breast-cancer-network-of-strength/). I got the pedometer and I got paid to write that post! They offer any kind of advertising you're willing to do on your blogs. If you just want to add a banner to your blog, you can get paid per click. You can Twitter ads on your Twitter stream, if someone clicks it, you get paid. You get to pick what you want to blog about — they don't pick for you. Now, you do have to qualify for the opportunity to be able to take it. That could be living in the US to having certain traffic stats. It is nowhere near as complicated as I know it must sound. Now, all opportunities you take with them are “no follow” which means you don't have to worry about Google taking away your page rank. Also, all posts will have the disclosure badge you will see on the bottom of that post. You are able to customize the color of it, so you can match it better to your blog. Sounds great, right?

If you have a blog and haven't signed up, here's what to do:

Go to www.socialspark.com. Basically, you just fill in the blanks — they will ask for your name, address, brands that you like, etc. You need to make sure you pick Spark E as the crew you want to join. Also, make sure you put in your blog information (URL, what your blogs about, etc). Once they accept your blogs, you are on your way to making money.

Lisa, I am already am a member there, but want to join your crew.

Here's what you need to do if you already are using Social Spark,

It's really that easy. Anybody who joins my crew (as long as you live in the US – I am mailing these myself and have to keep the cost down), I'll be sending some swag to you! After you've joined (or if you are a crew member already), email SparkEcrew@gmail.com with your address, and I'll get it out to you right away.

Hope to hear from you all soon!
