		<description>Some very inspiring answers, but as many have already said above, paying for a guest post, wouldn&#039;t be considered a guest post anymore. It would just become a paid gig. Would probloggers do guest posts? The answers give some clear results, most won&#039;t, not because their too pro, but because of lack of time, although I see some do guest post for very close friends.</description>

		<description>...somewhat defeats the point of a blog does it not? Would you want someone else writing in your diary?</description>

		<description>Interesting post. I think it&#039;s a good idea to invite a problogger to guest post on your blog. As long as it&#039;s a relevant post. Both can benefit from it.</description>

		<description>I would never pay a blogger to guest post on my site. I think a link back is payment enough.</description>

		<description>I see no issues with somebody writing a guest post for somebody else&#039;s blog. As long as the information is relevant to the blog at hand, why would I have any issues with it? 

I mean, it&#039;s their blog, they&#039;re free to do what they want with it. right?</description>

		<description>I think guest posting works for some, I write content for websites so I guess I am constantly writing for others. But I hate writing for someone else&#039;s blog, it&#039;s too personal.</description>

		<description>Personally as long as there was an appropriate amount of transparency I don&#039;t think most folks would have a problem with paid &quot;guest&quot; posting.

Although I&#039;d have to agree with most of your interviewees, Johnathan. Time availability really is a big issue in this business.

I&#039;d probably take a pass on the offer myself.</description>

		<description>@ Chris - thanks for sharing your thoughts, especially your question about paying to be on a popular blog!

@ Gab - yeah, I think in the end it&#039;s really alrge a time issue, so most never even have the chance to weight the ethical issue.</description>
