Nice to see the link to Lucas Gonze’s post about the
Marqui PayBloggers project. He brings up an
interesting point about re-structuring the
compensation level of the program to account for the
relevance or popularity of a particular blog.
There is a problem with this though in that who
determines the relative “value” of a given blog? For
right now, I imagine bloggers will simply set their
own price. But as more companies attempt this type of
program, will we see some sort of "objective"
organization emerge to assign rankings? I shudder at
the thought that we’ll eventually see blogs rated like restaurants or hotels…with 5-star blogs charging a premium.
All of that aside, in the short-term, we will be
re-evaluating the duration of the Marqui program and
the types of blogs we pursue to ensure we are making
the most of this opportunity.
