I don't think that will work. SS records your IP which points out your location, so it can be quite difficult to get away with that. @Anonymous

Begin with a 4 rank blog on Social Spark and you will get a big fat zero soon. The problem with writing for Social Spark is that one loses page rank very rapidly.

Thanks for the relevant link though. It is useful to study a blog’s analytics. I noticed that this works only with blogs with ITK installed. It does not work with claimed blogs.

I had a recent issue with SocialSpark on my blog’s analytics. I believe this is the reason why I had lesser opportunities than before:

Make Your New Domain Work with SocialSpark, PPP and SponsoredReviews

I had to consult Customer Love to verify if they have also updated the statistics of my blog.

If you don't mind me posting it here:<br/>http://www.dragonblogger.com/2008/09/socialspark-decent-blog-analysis-analytics-tools/<br/><br/><br/>I have only gotten paid by 3 opportunities in Social Spark, and about 2 in PayPerPost. Most of my money is made from PayU2Blog, where you don't fight for post opportunities, you are assigned paid posts, and you just do them and get your $5 per post, but I get 1-2 of them per day usually.
