My total earnings with this paid review website are $1631.95. You need to have 3 months old blog with 10 quality posts published to get accepted.
2. Make Money Selling Text Link Ads

I think that Keri is talking about nice advertorial that gets loaded with a ton of spammy links.
It's not about the quality of the content. It's what people are trying to use it for. (Getting your site to vote for their site in ways that Google doesn't approve.)

Once you leave Moz there is a lot of bad advice out there.
Don't do this stuff.

Google isn't going to endorse either of those tactics. Heck, they even just reinforced that if you have any advertorial content on your news site you need to make sure that's not in your site map or they may not index our news site at all.
However, people are free to write whatever they want online. Google isn't the police, but if you want to be included in Google, you need to follow their rules.

From someone who has worked in the publishing industry for more years than I care to remember, I have to say that some of the guidelines should be included in print publication. I have forgot the amount of times for print publications that i have had to write something nice just because our advertising department have said a company has paid good money for ad editorial.

Updating a Business Blog Article - Old or New Published Date
There are a few business blogs that I'm currently updating - include more details, information, case studies, statistics etc. The blog was originally published in September of 2016. Once I make the changes, do I keep the same original date or do I change the date to the day that i've uploaded the new information? Example:

Any article sites that actually still rank welll?
Hi All! After the havoc of Panda and Penguin - are there any article sites that still rank decently for the articles within? I'm not talking about using articles to get backlinks - I want to attract visitors to the articles themselves because of the message within the article. Yes, I know that for lots of reasons my own blog would be better. In addition to that, if you want to spread the message - which sites are recommended? Thanks! Aviva

Users reporting that there is a virus on my site.
A few months ago I found out that someone had hacked my site and placed malicious code and modified my .htaccess. I am pretty certain that I have cleared up all of the bad code (within 12 hours of it being infected). Yet, I am getting people telling me that their virus checker is warning them of a trojan on my site. Is there anything that can be done? I have no malware warnings in my Webmaster Tools. The site currently has 2 articles that are going viral and I'd hate for that to be screwed up by a stupid virus!

Multiple Domains pointing to one site?
Due to takeovers, different strategies and a certain amount of historical lack of control, we have a dozen sites covering many different specialist areas of our business. To make things easier to manage, we are thinking of merging website content, then repointing some of the domains to the new section within the larger website. The content on each site is all different, but the subject matter is sometimes the same.This will make content, design and management much easier. We propose to choose the best content, then repoint the underperforming domains. Is there an seo risk of having many domains pointing to one site?
