This is not a sponsored post of any kind. I had to say that because it might read that way to those of you who decide to skim instead of read.

I signed up with adgridwork a few days ago after communicating with Nick via BUMPzee! and regular email. If you look at the lower part of the sidebar on this blog, as well as the lower part of the sidebar at VideoTyme, you'll see the ad blocks I put in.

Did I mention this is totally free? Nick and his partner, Kyle, want to keep the service at the grassroots level and free forever. They're looking for ways to monetize without charging anything for the service and I offered some suggestions in this regard.

Untwisted Vortex isn't generating any clicks yet, and I'm positive it's because I have it under the "Blogging: Personal" category. This blog has been on there for probably a week. VideoTyme on the other hand, which just went live, has already generated clicks. I have it under "Blogging: Entertainment". It seems that other website owners (including bloggers) like the entertainment more than the personal stuff by a long shot.

Adgridwork and reviewback both are for all websites, not just blogs. Reviewback is a service that's similar to Fair Review but I'm not sure how similar, other than both of them are free services. I'm still not caught up on the reviews that I have in my queue, so I haven't joined either of them yet and I won't until the rest of my reviews are cleared out.

I recommend all three services. You want to get your blog publicized and get a lot of backlinks, right? These are ways to make sure your blog gets the attention it deserves.
