Another Diet Post? Seriously?!
99% of my posts are 100% organic. 1% is “assigned”. The majority of those “assigned” end up fitting naturally into my schedule and blog flow. Today, however, I am out of balance.
What is an “assigned” post? It’s where someone says, “Hey, here’s $5 if you mention my keyword and link in your blog.” Or “How about $20 to review my product?” Whatever the case, I get to review and post using my true opinion, regardless of how it reflects upon the product. The product is often not even the topic of the post, it is just mentioned.
I usually enjoy them because it’s fun to be “inspired” by the keywords and see where along the parenting path it takes me. But lately I have gotten a ton of diet assignments. Since they are not of products I personally have experience with I won’t “praise” them. I just offer up the information. Today I received an assignment about the alli diet pills and program. I have at least heard of this but have no experience.
Alli is a popular diet aid. I’ll include the link here so you can check it out if you are interested. Funny that I am writing about it on the even of Thanksgiving, the one time when we are more obsessed with everything that we are GOING to eat instead of everything we CAN’T!

Great article. Thanks for the interesting information. Keep up the good job !
With a ratio of 99% : 1% i think you are doing it right. Of course, we all need different things to read and talk about and by having most of your blog posts organic, sometimes adding in something new is definitely interesting.
I like your post bcoz of organic in chemical nature. Now you should create your post according to need what a heavy weight person want what a lin and thin person wnat?
You get payed to put certain keywords in?? I want that!
The most important point is that you continue giving your true point. You could just discover the product via TV, newspaper or a mail asking for the review. Anyway you never should accept to give a positive feedback on a product you dont know.
I have tried dozens of diets the last six months. I’m dying to find one that would REALLY work!!!
Funny thing about Alli, on their website it says that for the first few weeks of using it, you should bring an extra pair of pants to work in case you soil yourself. They don’t exactly use the terminology “soil yourself”, but that is exactly what they mean. Ahh, here’s exactly what is says on the Alli site:
“Until you have a sense of any treatment effects, it’s probably a smart idea to wear dark pants, and bring a change of clothes with you to work.”
I wasn’t making it up!
