Woman on Laptop

Parranda - mix.mingle.baila - Latin infused party hosted by Ana Lilian Flores, Melanie Edwards, and Carrie Ferguson Weir

In about four weeks, I’ll be heading down to Miami to attend the Blogalicious 2010 conference.

Why Do Bloggers Continue to Work for Free?

September 8, 2010 By Melanie Edwards 86 Comments

Bloggers Working for Free

About five months ago, I shared with you how I was offered to work for food…literally. In exchange for seven blog posts for a brand (in one week), I was offered $200 worth of their food products. Promoting a brand for free – on that scale – was not something I could agree to do. […]
