IZEA Insiders
Like Ninjas with Laptops
The IZEA Insiders are comprised of a group of bloggers specifically handpicked to represent the IZEA Community to the blogosphere. Many of these have been with IZEA since its inception, and have had many memorable experiences along the way: cakeplows, weddings, IZEAFests.

Because they’re looked to as leaders within the IZEA Community they get the “inside scoop” on new products and platform enhancements, often receive information before other users or the general public, share knowledge about social media marketing with their blog readers and followers, and attend industry conferences and events in an effort to improve their skills as social media experts.
IZEA Insiders also work on the more prominent social media campaigns like Sears and Bumble Bee, and regularly participate in promotional programs and product samplings.

@Ashley Edwards: I’m with you Ashley! These guys are the best. They always go above and beyond for us.
I’m really happy to be one of the insiders. This has been so much fun and the opportunities have been amazing. Thanks IZEA!
I’m super proud to call myself an Insider. You guys have been nothing but great to me from the very beginning. All the way back to when I joined in July of 2006!
I am proud to call a lot of the Insiders FRIENDS. I look forward to seeing EVERYONE at IzeaFest this year!
Izea is leading the way and their community and ability to draw such great folks are a huge part of their edge! Those are some awesome folks you have pictured up there!!
Its only been 3 months since this actually kicked off, but truth be told the choices were made back in November, and we have all been working very hard since then to help the community in many different ways.
Times are tough all around the world, but it is good to be working with a community that can actually help people do what they want to do and earn more money at the same time.
As an AVID IZEA fan, and a huge SocialSpark and PayPerPost promoter, with one of the biggest friend bases on SocialSpark, how can I join the IZEA-Insiders? I was Postie of the month for Jan 2009 and would love to be part of the insider team.
More Success to IZEA and Congratulations IZEA insiders! Keep it up!
@Dragon Blogger: It’s great that other bloggers are recognizing these folks and are interested in the Insiders program.
Right now this is a trial program. These Insiders have a one-year “agreement” so we’ve a bit of a ways to go, but you’ll certainly be hearing more about moving on into 2010 towards the end of the year.
Stay tuned to the blog for more info!
Ohh the PPP wedding… let’s have another!
You guys all rock, the insiders, everyone at IZEA whether it’s Pay Per Post or Social Spark. I love writing for you and it is getting better and better. When is the IZEA fest?
I just joined Spark-E’s team so this will be even more fun.
Nice to meet everyone — doing an awesome job here!
@The Midnight Writer: Thanks! We certainly love positive feedback.
This year’s IZEAFest is 10/1-10/4, at SeaWorld in Orlando. You can find out more here on the site (http://izea.com/community/izeafest/) or at IZEAFest.com.

Nice to meet you too, cheers !
I hope that everyone checks out the series of blogger interviews with the “I’m Not A Famous Blogger” Crew. Those folks are fantastic! All INAFB bloggers will receive a request to do an interview. If you’d like yours right away shoot me a message through SocialSpark.
I will follow you, “Big Ben”
As a beginner I really don`t know how to do,
I believe that you`re doing your best for all of us !
Thanks a lot for kind attention,
Warmest regards, Gbu.

Wow you all look so happy…and who wouldn’t be working with such a great bunch? I appreciate each of you, and all IZEA has done for us/me over the past couple years. THANKS!
Wonder why even though I have a Gravatar image, it never shows up when I comment on IZEA blogs?
Hi Everyone,
hi Chief, “Big Ben”….
have a nice weekend,
have good health,
so Good Luck, take care !
God bless you all, friends.
Hola, Soy nueva en esta área pero deseo y espero que me acepten como parte de su familia. ustedes todos parecen conocer algo que yo deseo conocer. Un fuerte abrazo y todas las bendiciones que todos ustedes se merecen espero tener el gusto de conocerlo muy pronto. You guys all rock.
@catalina: Welcome. I hope that you feel a part of the family. We Insiders are here to help.
@Hamsiadi Santoso: Thanks so much for the great comment. I hope you have a great weekend too!
Hola, Catalina soy nuevo aquí también, pero también muy bien recibidos como otras personas, por lo que me siento cómodo …….
Ben está siempre conmigo para que yo ya no extranjeros, es un buen líder, lo que yo llamo el Big Ben, bienvenido – abrazos.
Hello Ben, how are you ?
I`ll wait for your new shoot – lovely photos.
I see that we have a kind new friend here.
Best regards to you and all Izea`s friends.
have a nice & happy weekend…..hugs.
@Hamsiadi Santoso: I’ve got to get some better photos, very uninspired lately. However I’m heading on a kayak trip tomorrow so some real good stuff then!
Hope so, Big Ben
Enjoy your nice kayak trip, I`ll be waiting 4 your nice stuff soon, okay ?
Take care, chief…. ha ha
Regards to you & sweet family.
Hugs !
more power and I wish SS will approve my blog
@Hamsiadi Santoso: The kayak trip was awesome, my computer dying after it was not. There will be a wait for the video but the photos are up on Benspark – http://www.benspark.com/what-cheer-netop.html
@beng: More power for sure. Nice looking blog, I’d scrap the Google adsense above the fold though. Too many ads before you get to the content. Banner is huge too. Other than that looks nice reads pretty decent too.
@BenSpark:
Awesome guys!
All about money
how do I start getting paid to blong about things. Like free things and places. Let me know…….e-mail me
@Amanda: Thank you!
@Maju: Not everything is about the money.
@Kristen: Do you have a blog Kristen? You didn’t put one in your comment. You gotta get yourself out there and work at it, every day. Check out my socialspark Saturdays posts for more tips and ideas on blogging.
No I don’t have a blog but I will check it out.
@Kristen: Well, that would be step #1. Find something that you are passionate about and then write about it on a blog. Get some time invested in it, get your own domain name and self host the blog, I use GoDaddy for my hosting and Wordpress to create my blog(s). Work on it for a while and join SocialSpark. Write quality and you will receive quality in return.
yeah, i’m in..right? XD
@amy:
I hope SS will re consider my blog approval (PLEASE!)
It’s great to see some of my bestest buddies on this page. I have learned tons from these guys. They are also fun to tweet with about anything. Even better is meeting in person.
@MarDeck: Looking forward to hopefully meeting you Martha! Glad to help with everything and anything. Thanks for helping me with the Ultimate IZEAFest Prize Pack.
It is nice to discover this community.
@Crazyhorse: Welcome, we are glad to have you as part of the community.
cool thanks !
