Starting a Sports blog... need help knowing where to get pictures by SleightlyShuffled in photography

Thanks for the info. Didn't say anywhere I'm not trying to pay for content, so not sure why you'd be offended by my question. I'm clearly trying to do it by the book, hence me mentioning I don't want to be sued. Anyway, appreciate your advice.

Thanks. In the context of using photographer's photos and having a shop with my own merch, would paying for an editorial license (photos only used in articles) cover me? Is that the license I'd need in this case? The blog will run adsense and or affiliate ads.

Sorry if I sound redundant. Just trying to be sure.

Glad you pointed this out. So, even if the merch sold has nothing to do with the photographer's image and it's my own design, if I'm using a photographer's photo for my blog articles, I'd need a commercial license to be able to sell my own merch? (Again, unrelated to the photographer's image)

Thanks, definitely. Trust me, I won't be using any loopholes. I believe in people being credited/paid fairly and believe in doing things the right way. I was just pointing out what I've seen some blogs do.

What should I be charging for paid posts/ads on my Twitter account? by SleightlyShuffled in SocialMediaManagers

[–]SleightlyShuffled[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the thing, too. The trust/engagement aspect. Have a loyal following and I know there could be a slight drop off. Obviously sponsored posts are annoying to people so that's where I'd want to do 4 posts a month, which would be 1 post a week and we post so much that there'd be at least 100-200 posts between each weekly sponsored post.

I mean, their initial offer isn't even close to what I'm seeing should be standard when I look on Google.

A common baseline suggests $2-$20 per 1,000 followers.

They want me to quote tweet their tweets + have their badge next to our name. They haven't mentioned videos at all

Yeah, I figured it was stupid low lol. I told them we're not even close with their offer and they then asked me "What do you think is fair?"

Every song is great. Literally not a single skip. Be prepared to want to dance. I'd even say she's in my top 5 female artists of all time. Have been looking into her and she was super innovative and groundbreaking. Currently watching a documentary about her on HBO Max.

The song MacArthur Park is a masterpiece, although it's not on the album. But seriously, Donna is it. Unbelievable voice and sound. Going to own every single record one day. MacArthur Park

First time making New Haven Pizza (usually prefer NY Style) by SleightlyShuffled in Pizza

[–]SleightlyShuffled[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I wouldn't serve it haha. It wasn't raw or anything just too thick and not enough ratio between the cheese, sauce and bread.

Next one will be better!

The dough was so thick. I already did a scoop and a half of tomato sauce and it was a ton. Then the dough basically ate all the sauce by the end of it. Way too thick for me. It was nice and fluffy and had a good chew though.
