Dear LIB readers, should I take political ads?

Abeg, I need y'all to help me out with this dilemma. Contrary to what some of you think, I haven't, so far, collected a dime from any political party to run ads or a story. If you see any banner ads on my blog, it's from Google adsense and not direct from me. And the stories are absolutely not sponsored.

But the thing is, in the last few months, and it has especially intensified in the last few weeks, reps of political parties have been coming to me to run their ads. And the kind of money they are throwing at me...OMG! Lol. So far, I have resisted. I restrict my ads to strictly brands but these political ad  people will not leave me alone. They say every media platform in the world run political ads so I should be open minded. I'm talking about APC, PDP, their supporters and enemies.

And the money is PLENTY! Like, y'all won't believe how much they are throwing at me.. Lol. What do y'all think? Should I run political ads from both parties? It could make me increase LIB Giveaway Mondays, so all of us will chop inside. Lol. Or should I just leave it alone? I'm sincerely confused. *sigh*

I think you can run the advert for the two parties, but then you wont favour one party more than the other and sentiment wont be involved.If you can do these, then take up the adverts offers.Theres no harm invoved

IN GETTING THE MONEY, GO FOR PEOPLE THAT ARE ACTUALLY IN NEED! NOT TO YOUR FAVOURITE PEEPS OR LIB STAFF!!!

Plus life is too short linda to live in guilt... business is business, life is life.. post all the parties ads together if u like.. just be sure not to take sides as dat could affect alot of things.. take d doe girl.. and don't forget to share :-) with me of course..

Anonymous said...

Dear Linda,
If I can read correctly in between the lines, i think you've already made up your mind; you just need a little 'push'. Well my honest opinion is to take the money and run. For the sake of balance and fairness you might want to feature both political parties.

What i've learnt from this country albeit harshly is that you need to take the opportunities you are given. they may never present themselves again, trust me. All media houses, print and even radio take ads from political parties so you wont be doing anything strange. And if anyone has a problem with it, you can tell them where to stuff their opinions..
At the end Linda, you are a business woman, not a conscience of society.

Your blog is being ruined by these awful political posts. They are destroying your brand in my humble opinion. Please stop destroying the goodwill you have earned by reposting rubbish tweets from Doyin Okupe, Obanikoro, El-Rufai and so on. That's not what we are here for.

If they want to advertise, then separate their advertisements from the rest of your blog posts. And the way to do that is to CLEARLY and HONESTLY STATE that it is a SPONSORED AD. If you are transparent about sponsored ads, people won't turn against you.

Unknown said...

linda accept the ads jare, too much money aint enough money oo, since they are willing to pay huge for it and your blog is the most visited in nigeria with a huge ton of followers and commenters so its a YES for me but if you accept ads from one political party you must accept from the others so as to streamline the possiblity of people thinking you are in a favour of a particular party, you should run the ads in an unbiased manner .

Oh Linda, do not let all these pass you by. You are working for your money and if they feel they want to use your platform to get across to people, so be it as far as they pay. Right.
But it is good the way you decided to ask your blog readers and how you stylishly passed a message across that you are on neutral grounds. Lol, good of you.

That aside, Please oh, I am in need of a job (full-time or part-time). I can help campaign for votes on social media for political office aspirants in the upcoming elections. E-mail me at iamidiaze@gmail.com

Unknown said...

Linda, take up the ads and do remmember to take from both parties. Not just because of the Monday giveaway increment or whatever. Adding advertising is one of the features of standard modern blogging. Those politicos must be told clearly that you aint taking side with any particular party and will put ads from rival parties.
This is an opprtunity to make more money for yourself. If money don tire you then MAKE IT FOR THE POOR, LESS PRIVILEGE, PEOPLE WITH DISABILITY etc. You have nothing to loss, go for it from a good motive and clear conscious.

Anonymous said...

You look at it from a business standpoint. You stand to make more money. When an opportunity comes you take it. As long as you are non partisan. You also have to let each political party understand that you are being fair and have no interest in standing for any political party. It will also be wise to get strong legal backing to protect you. Good luck.

Anonymous said...

Pls, don't drink from this chalice, it's poisoned and you might not be able to shake it off. Even though you might try to be fair by giving everyone the opportunity to pay what they want to advertise, these guys are enemies and might take you as one if things don't go their way.

Eh ya Linda. I think it's okay to run their Ads. It's like running a newspaper, you don't have to support anyone. If they pay you run their Ads but be careful that they don't use your blog to witch hunt opposition parties. Try and give credit to the source of the information so that it will not come across as your opinion

This one is really tough. I'll say evaluate the reasons why you have rejected political ads so far and evaluate the ups and downs of collecting political ads... Pray for God's guidance with making a decision then decide.

Remembering that we all have a stake in Nigeria. An ad is an ad and an opinion is an opinion. I am also aware that there are different types of ads... ultimately let God lead you. Good luck girl!

You look at it from a business standpoint. You stand to gain monetarily as long as you are non partisan. Get a strong legal team that makes each political party understand that.

Dear Linda, if you take the money you might end up being compromised but if you can still remain neutral then it is not unethical for you to take it. The major problem with your country is corruption and you should stand up against it in every form. You are a role model and fast becoming an icon. Trust me, nobody can persecute you for standing against corruption because if they try it you'll become popular internationally and we will definitely stand with you.

You are first and foremost a blogger not a politician, and as such, it definitely makes business sense to take the political adverts. Please make sure it remains balanced though...Try to strike a veritable balance between the two parties and you can possibly carve out a section of your page for the ads. Just my 2 cents...RRB

My Sincere Opinion is after the election, you can take any political ads. Their offer of course go make sense but as Nigerians wey we be E fit turn to another thing. Even if you take both ads, one of their representatives from either party would still want you to take off their opponents ads from your blog site by offering you more money. Just use wisdom reason am well.

mikky Micheal said...

You are a blogger run any ads that offers you money without being bias so long they are paying. It's like refusing to run an ad for a bleaching cream because of its effects. We all know that these politicians are criminals and only need us now cos of our votes..... chop them now cos after FEB 14 you won't see them again.

By all means do! do u need someone's permission to actually do that? See this woman o but just make them understand its an ad and the blog because of its purpose is open to all such similar ads from various sources and then try not to take any side just be neutral which I must say would be quite difficult cos anyone seeing a pic of any politician on ur blog will instantly feel he is ur person u ve endorsed him, but u could do it and put up a disclaimer stating no involvement in or with any political party.

Okay here the thing, even if you choose not to run a direct ads for these Politicians how about the one already running on your blog through third party? My sister it's business, u are not promoting any party, they give you their ads you read through and when it not offensive or directly destroying an opposition you run it. Then you have to roll out your terms and conditions before you accept any ads. Be plain, and come to think of it those time you show off pictures of Desmond Eliot, Kate Henshaw and the rest of them, that's indirect ad although u might not have collected money for that. In all use wisdom, never be political, and above all involve your lawyer (if u have gotten one already by nowJennifer Lopez has confirmed she is still single.

The 45-year-old singer-and-actress ended her nearly three-year relationship with backup dancer Casper Smart in June 2014.

Speculation is rife the pair recently reunited, but Jennifer has denied these rumours.

“I'm single right now,” she told Us Weekly magazine.

The First Love songstress is perfectly happy with her relationship status.

However, the star admits she's more open to dating now than she was a few months ago.

"I think being on my own has been really great for me," Jennifer said. "There was a time where I was just like 'Ehhh, I'm just not going to deal with anybody, I just want to be on my own.' Now I'm getting back into the mix. For right now, I just have no announcements to make."

The superstar is back in front of the camera with new flick The Boy Next Door. The feature is a sexy thriller about a divorcee falling for her mysterious neighbour. The role required Jennifer to get intimate with co-star Ryan Guzman, something that proved awkward at times.

"It was intense," Jennifer admitted to E! previously. "Those scenes are embarrassing. They are uncomfortable, but your job as an actress or an actor is to make it believable and this movie in particular… hinges on if that was believable, that it was enough to make this guy go insane."

Jennifer is making loads of exciting professional moves of late. The star also launched BodyLab in Santa Monica this week, a revolutionary new lifestyle brand which provides health and fitness formulas just for women.). That's my Opinion

Linda,if you must do it,you must make it clear to them(in writing)
that it must not be a smear campaign agsinst opponents
No name of opponent should be mentioned..ie it must be neutral
You will issue a disclsimer:that it does not reflect your views

You too must be neutral in your publications or else..steer clear.

God bless!

At the end some aggrieved people will hate you after the elections and you may not know how damaging that could be to your blog & most importantly your reputation until some evil web masters start breaking into your blog's database. Vanguard, Punch, The Nation and even Lagos State's official websites have all been hacked in the past. Money can be very tempting but when your career is involved, it can be very ending. Family & friends will give you great ideas on how to run the ads without necessarilly offending fans and blog readers but those ideologies are not genuine and objective. Deep down you, you know it is not just ok and whatever is tempting you to run those ads must stay down forever.

Please do Sissy Linda, You are running your ads biko!

I think you should take adverts from both parties as long as you give both of them the same amount of coverage. Don't give one any more time than the other, and don't take campaigns that are malicious. If it's just a banner with the party colours, logo and face of the candidate with an innocent motto, take it. If it's an advert abusing another candidate or saying something malicious, don't take it.

Anonymous said...

Yes u should as long as you dont support anyone by commenting after the ad.....just adhere to fair play. The other blogger that lives in europe is using red eyes to find parties to pay for ads on her blog(yes she has mentioned it). Linda it is your blog, do your job and go and vote right for change feb 14. My 2cents advice...

Abeg you better dont slack linda.
The hustle is real oh.
If they bring ads,upload and collect ur money jare.
If apc brings put,if pdp brings put.
So long as ure not exclusively putting in just for one party,i think its okay.ure not being biased,ure only marketing.
Enjoy girl.

Since Ï…̲̣̥r̲̅ not pressured to run an Ad for just one party, i don't see any thing wrong in it. But i believe a lot in instincts. Trust Ï…̲̣̥r̲̅ instincts Linda, they never lie.

My dear this is your business ooo, you need to make profit. My advise is that you put both parties but don't comment or openly support anyone of the parties. Collect your money my dear but be fair in ur publications, don't obviously side anyone. You need the money ooo, after campaign my dear nobody go remember u ooo! And remember if u don't have money, Nigerians won't even look ur way! So my dear do your business ooo, collect money but don't sell ur vote!!!

If you so wish, you own nobody any explanations. But most Igbos support PDP while some Yorubas/Hausas support APC. Hope you won't have more enemies from your people because I belief you secretly support APC lolzzz

As long as u are neutral, running ads for all parties that are interested then no qualms. Pls make sure u place ur own terms as well that no one should dictate whose advert to take or reject. Nor be tomorrow them go want buy you over make you nor cover other interested parties

rio said...

Linda, i hardly comment but just tot i shld say sm tin, i dont tink you should involve you self in political ads, it could affect your image and the image of LIB internationally. just my opinion.

Oh Linda! How i love u. You're such a smart woman and I couldn't be more proud of ur beautiful heart. My candid opinion is; Take on their ads but ensure u put a disclaimer at the end of such post retierating that LIB has nothing to do with it. You've paid ur dues my dear. Its high time u enjoyed the dividends of ur hardwork. #LesChopThisNationalAkaraTogether
