Paid Posts/Reviews

The Shoe Dish offers paid posts and reviews to advertisers, websites, and designers in our boutique niche, as well as those that surround a very particular aspect of the shoe buying community.

While paid post and reviews beyond this are negotiable, we will not consider those that are unrelated to fashion and celebrity pop culture.

Paid posts and reviews will be between 180 and 350 words (never less than 150) and all posts will be included in the weekly newsletter of the week they are posted. Our newsletter subscriber list is 16,763.

Cost per post/review: $350
