Found a helpful web tool

Just thought I'd pass this one along to you all. This site came in handy for me tonight when doing a paid post that had a minimum word count requirement. Sometimes when you copy and paste into word to get a count it can alter your post codes, so this site avoids that.

http://www.wordcounttool.com/ (http://www.wordcounttool.com/)

Super easy to use, all you have to do is paste your text into the box and click submit. The total word count is displayed at the bottom!
Hope this helps someone.

As a side note, PayU2Blog is really working well for me. :cooldance:I've obviously had to get creative with a few posts, but I've managed to be honest and fit everything in so far. If you have a blog where you have a little freedom, I'd recommend them over ppp anyday. I've made over $60 since the end of June alone, and I don't have to constantly refresh like ppp.
It certainly won't work for those who have a very specific blog, unless you don't mind throwing in some weird posts!

Ooh, that looks good. I vacillate on PayU2Blog...I like being able to choose (event when I'm stretching it) for PPP, but money is money.

Yea...that's the website I use for counting words if I'm in doubt. It is easy to use and an easy to remember url.

Can you do both in the same blog site?

Yes...you just need to make sure you follow each one's terms.

Yeah you just have to be careful because Pu2B can really crap up your blog if you are trying to stay on topic. Some of the word links just do not fit at all. I also found that when I was with them on CW I hit dry spells frequently so it will not be a steady stream of income either.

Yea...like Catherine said...they can be really strange topics at times. And sometimes you get the same ones over and you have to come up with a new way to include it.

On the opposite spectrum of the dry spells, sometimes you get several with the same deadline and even though they allow you to have their posts back to back, you risk your rankings and you just start sounding odd sometimes if you post them back to back to back so I'd be prepared to blog more so you can spread them out between meaningful posts.

I averaged about $50 every two weeks with them at first, but the last month, I went down to $30 and this last pay day was only $25 so it's easy yes, but for sure not regular.

I like Pay U 2 Blog better also. I can never get a PPP to work. And I have been able to do a meaningfull blog every time. My blogs have no ryme or reason to them anyway. But on that note I do have one for used Harleys and it cracks me up because my in laws bought used Harleys from this place.
