I got that identical email from the same guy! I told him no way, but thanks. He offered those links as well–heck no! Perhaps he is making the rounds down Yakezie.

So far, this week, I've converted two out of four "guest post" requests to money.  50% conversion so far.  :)
Of the other two, one hasn't responded, and the other came back with:
We do pay for guest posts but we have some criteria when we pay for such guest posts to other websites which needs to be fulfilled. These are :- 
  • PR should be more than 6.
  • It should have more than 2,00,000 visitors
  • Domain name should be fully relevant to debt.
As your site doesn't fulfil these requirements, I am sorry to say that I would not be able to pay you for the guest post. Instead what I can do for you is that I can provide a back link to your site in one of my sites.
So if you are interested, let me know.
Thanks and Regards,
Shawn Ambrose
My response was simple: "I'm sorry we won't be able to do business.  Let me know if you adjust your expectations."
PR6 only?  Totally unrealistic.  But at least he offered me a link, right?

I can totally relate.  I have a form on my site for readers and entrepreneurs to submit posts and I get so many spammy "guest post" submissions from shady people and corporates just wanting to link build who have never even read a post on my site, let alone the submission instructions.  Luckily some sincere and awesome submissions do come in which totally makes up for the spammers.
