What is a Blogger invoice?

A blogger invoice documents fees for sponsored content, brand partnerships, product reviews, and professional blogging services. Established bloggers with significant audiences earn from brand collaborations and sponsored posts, while professional bloggers also offer content writing services to clients who need blog content produced and published on their own or third-party platforms. Sponsored post rates are audience-driven — a blogger with 100,000 monthly readers charges significantly more than one with 10,000. A professional invoice ensures transparent commercial arrangements and provides documentation for the blogger's self-employment income. ASA guidelines require sponsored content to be clearly labelled as advertising.

How to invoice as a blogger

Collect 50% upfront before producing the sponsored content, with the balance due on publication or within 7 days of posting. For agency bookings, Net 30 is standard. Include the specific publication date in the invoice. Sponsored posts must be clearly labelled as advertising in the post itself (per ASA guidelines) — your invoice documents the commercial arrangement. Keep records of all brand deals for self-assessment.

Frequently asked questions

How do I price sponsored blog posts?
Sponsored post pricing is based on your blog's audience size, engagement rate, domain authority (for SEO value), and niche. A starting point is £100 per 10,000 monthly readers, adjusted upward for high engagement and specialist niches (health, finance, travel) which command premiums. Build a media kit to support your pricing conversations.
Do I need to declare sponsored blog income for tax?
Yes. Sponsored post income is taxable income, whether received in cash or as goods (which must be declared at their fair market value). Register as self-employed with HMRC if your blog income exceeds £1,000 in a tax year. Keep records of all brand deals and their values.
What does ASA regulation require for sponsored posts?
The ASA (Advertising Standards Authority) requires that sponsored content is clearly and prominently labelled as advertising before readers engage with it. Labels like 'Sponsored', 'Paid partnership', or 'Ad' in the title or opening are required. Your invoice documents the commercial arrangement; the post label discloses it to readers. Non-compliance can result in ASA sanctions.
Can I charge for giveaways and product reviews differently?
Yes. A full sponsored post (written content, photography, promotion) commands a higher fee than a simple product review. Giveaways that require admin work (entries management, winner selection) are additional labour beyond a standard post. Define your rate structure clearly in your media kit.
What if a brand sends me products and expects a review for free?
Free product reviews (uncompensated) are a personal choice and may be appropriate for small or gifted items. For significant products or substantial time investment, professional bloggers charge a fee for reviews. You are never obligated to produce positive content for free products. Unsolicited gifts under £50 are typically acceptable; larger value items with an expectation of coverage should be treated as commercial arrangements.

Yes. Tidybill's free plan lets you create up to 5 invoices per month at no cost, with no credit card required. You can use the Blogger invoice template straight away after signing up.
