I have deleted the “contact info” so this will not be construed as an advertisement.
That is not my intent.
Take a look at the two articles that follow.
Also, it was interesting to learn that NEWSPAPERS employ some of these “paid posters” to keep things active on their site. It's clearly using the forum for commercial gain.
Just thought it was interesting reading....

This is something you can do on your spare time; it's easy, fun and a quick way to earn a few dollars. The task of a forum poster is to log on to assigned message boards and post replies to existing discussions or start new threads. It is important to sign-up for topics you're particularly interested in or have ample knowledge about to maintain the forums' credibility. Forum posters are paid per post, ranging anywhere from $0.15 to $12 or more for articles or blog posts.

If you are seeking a work from home job online, can type and have good communication skills, paid forum poster positions are widely available. These work-at-home positions pay for posting services on community forums and are a good fit for those who can type fast and create interesting conversations.
Instructions
Difficulty: Moderate
Things You’ll Need:
Internet access
Good typing skills
Internet banking account such as Paypal
Step1
Open an online banking account such as Paypal or Stormpay by visiting their website and registering for an account. Paypal is an almost universally accepted account and will enable you to be paid for your services.
Step2
Do a Google search (or via your preferred search engine) for paid forum poster positions. You will likely find many listings that are looking for people to post on community websites as a work from home contractor. Most will pay you a rate per post and will want to do a trial run or test to check the quality of your work before offering you a position.
Step3
Do your trial run and be sure to follow any directions given to you by the prospective employer. When doing a work at home job, it can be easy to misconstrue directions so if you are unsure of any details, ask for clarification.
Step4
Post with well written, grammatically correct sentences. To be a good paid forum poster, you should engage others by creating subjects that encourage conversation. The point of having paid forum posters is to encourage traffic and conversation at the community so do your best to write with open ended questions that will illicit responses. Create positive, upbeat posts and avoid participating in flame wars where posters attack one another in their posts.
Step5
Verify the terms of your employment with the company or forum that wants your services. Be sure you understand what is expected of you and how and when you will be paid for your services. If something seems unreasonable, evaluate all the terms and trust your instinct. There are scams out there targeted at people that want to work at home.
