Tip $10 here and RANK 1 instantly in our TOPSPOTS!

Some links have been there for half a year already, that’s dirt cheap!!!


How much money did (The) Carpenters make?

the carpentersThe Carpenters found a niche in the 70s when louder and faster-paced rock was in great demand. Reason why we know them is because their soft musical niche music that made them one of the best-selling music artists of all time.

But all that couldn’t prevent Karen of The Carpenters to die of anorexia nervosa at the age of only 32. Money can’t buy everything!

How much money did carpenter Joseph from the Bible make?

Joseph, the man that helped virgin marry to fled to Egypt so they were able to bring up Jesus…

It’s not stated how much money carpenters made during those days, but for all I learned from the bible:

  • have your business where there is lot’s of traffic (traders in the synagogue)
  • you can always double your money if you let it work. Just know that twice 3 is only 6 where twice 5 is already 10… the more money you have, the easier it gets
  • you don’t have to do a lot to become famous:just make sure you get seen around another famous person (who would have ever known there was a carpenter named Joseph when there wouldn’t have been Jesus

So don’t look at a persons’ pay check, but learn how they got the paycheck!

How much money do real carpenters make?

How much money do carpenters make?

Normally, carpenters make between 10$ to 30$ an hour. The more skillful they are, the more they can earn.

Skillful means:

  1. if they have the skills to negotiate a better price, they can earn more
  2. if they have finer carpenter skills, they can earn more
  3. if they have better tools, they can earn more

So remember that even the best carpenter can be the least paid. Just visit Bali and see how little these amazingly skilled wood-carvers are making…

Carpenters’ earnings versus Linky Love’s earnings

Compared to carpenters in Bali, Linky love is doing well, compared to carpenters in US, there is room for improvement:

  1. I am not a salesperson, so I am not that good in negotiating prices for advertising, nor am I good in selling stuff online
  2. I am not an IT person, so my money making skills are less compared to let’s say John Chow "who was born in a computer"
  3. I am resourceful and finding better tools, resulting in new websites like Adopt a Puppy for Free : 20 days young and already making more money than Gwen Stefani Clothes make in 1 month…

Evaluation

Know yourself

Read what I said about how carpenters can earn more money and then see for yourself where you stand:

  1. if carpenters have the skills to negotiate a better price, they can earn more
  2. if they have finer carpenter skills, they can earn more
  3. if carpenters have better tools, they can earn more

I am :

  1. not a salesperson
  2. not an IT person but
  3. I am looking for better tools in order to make more money online

One tool I bought is the complete Step-by-Step Guide on creating Profitable Blogs. From that I mainly use the "Find yourself a new niche website tool". This makes that I am starting to make more money on the Internet outside of the Linky Love blog.

Selling adspace is not my forte either, so as you can see now:

  • you can just buy adspace in 1 second here : text-link-ads for only 10$ and exposure for half a year!
  • buy adspace in 1 minute here : it gives you statistics about my visitors, so saves me the sales person talk : just look at the bare facts and decide for yourself
    • why advertising on Linky Love is a great way of attracting more visitors to your website and
    • why advertising on Linky Love is a great way of branding your products.

If you are blogging for money yourself: then evaluate where you stand.

  • if you are good in selling stuff, then by all means make more efforts there.
  • if you have a good IT background and you want to dig deeper in order to reach more, then by all means make more efforts there.
  • if you are like me: not an IT person nor a salesperson, then get yourself some good tools in order to blog better

Think outside the box…

Really look around yourself and look with eyes that monetize…

Charisma Carpenter Playboy Gallery

An example of thinking outside the "Carpenter" box is illustrated in the picture below, yet outside the box doesn’t always have to mean outside your clothes…
That’s why you can also have a look at  href="http://www.womansswimwear.net/2008/03/charisma-carpenter-in-bikini.html">Charisma Carpenter in a bikini …

Charisma Carpenter Playboy Gallery is only 1 example of
thinking outside the "Carpenter" box…

Another example about thinking about the carpenters box is selling the carpenters sticker heads in the picture higher above…

Future earnings

carpenterLike I said last month: on average we are making $300 a month. With the amount of effort I put in this blog compared to other blogs (Adopt a Puppy for Free), I should be making my target of $1000 a month already long time ago.

We have to face it: earning $3000 a year is great when you talk about pocket money in the west.

It’s even better when you talk about living in the east. It buys me 3 airplane tickets from east to west, which is great for sitting on my butt and writing about the things I love ;-)

Main thing is you do what you love, and if what you love is wood and "carpenting", then by all means become a carpenter, no matter how much money it does or doesn’t make…

Simple Chicken Salad Recipe

simple chicken salad recipeA simple yet delicious chicken salad recipe from our Korean cooking blog of the weekend, suggesting all the food lovers from the Linky Love community to share some linky love and recipes with each other!

Peter looks quite Asian to me living in the US, so he is the best guide for making Asian dishes with what’s available in western shops.

What I love the most about his blog is the step by step instructions: this picture on the right is only a snippet of how he makes a simple grape salad…

And especially for kimchihead: Try Peter’s Kimchi Stew!


Tip $10 and get instant traffic to your blog

tip $10"After I gave Linky Love a $10.00 tip,
I’ve increased traffic coming from this website to mine.
It’s working for me & it should work for you too!" Tip her here!
Mae, The Postcard Collector


How to benefit from the Linky Love community

It’s time we start using the blogs that are listed in the Add Your Link Toplist for everybody’s benefit. We all love link love, so all you have to do is:

  • browse through the category where you listed your blog,
  • have a look if you like the other blogs there
  • and if you do, go and exchange links or even better:
  • exchange guest posts!

This works very well when it comes to recipes!

Just like in the real world: ask the other blogs which recipe they would love to feature on your recipe blog. Of course you link back to their blog and you make sure they list a recipe from your blog as well.

This kind of linky love called "deep linking in similar neighbourhoods" is a very powerful way both to :

  • increase your online visitors
  • increase your search engine traffic

Also have a look in the other categories as some bloggers do blog about food but categorize it differently like:

  • category: cooking and food:
    • A Great Pleasure : a blog of my own recipes, random thoughts, interests, knowledge, experiences.
  • category travel:
  • category blogs:
    • HillBilly Willy: fun, food and politics
    • Jenna’s blog : This is a site, not only about me and my personal experiences, but also one that offers information and views on a number of different things concerning Faith, Love, Family, Travel, Business, Sports, Cooking, Television, Technology, Jobs, and so much more…
    • Maiylah’s snippets: a delicious pasta!
    • Sinigang. A Sour soup, a distinct Filipino comfort food for the soul. as unique as its people. as diverse as its culture. a blend of ingredients prepared to its sour perfection, exciting the palate, soothing the nerves, rousing the senses, bringing back memories of scenic greens, warm sun, blue waters, and the solace of home. (We would love to see the recipe to eat that is…)
    • Toast & egg & me : It started just a cup of coffee after work. Having a cup of my favorite coffee and surfing the net is just relaxing and nice after a hard day work. This blog is all the stuff that goes through my mind when I’m having my coffee. When the work is very much…
