blogging for money

Keep advising our clients and prospect to create a blog for their site - I often get the same retrun: we dfon't have time to spend on these kind of things.

I then start listing a number of big companies using blogs for their online marketing activities.

Here are 2 examples I found recently in online reports:
http://espn.go.com/
http://www.ajc.com/

... are paying any contributor who wish to write for them. I have discovered www.adfero.co.uk (at the London AD:TECH conference) who are selling news (unique content for your site). To give you an idea, I was quoted ~£11 / news (~150 words) directely delivered to your door (through xml).
