Farrey's: The Only Lighting Solution to Our Dark Alleys

Blazing Lights from tens of thousands sources naturally created a floodlight, brighter than the daylight itself. This is how I appreciated the awesome range of lighting arrays showcased by the Farrey's.

With a history of qualitatively superior services, through such products as fine art lamps, George Kovacs lamps, Hinkley light fixtures, Kichler, Minka Lavery, Murray Feiss, Quoizel and Sea Gull lighting, ... You need no more proof of conviction of quality and customers elation.

Indoor lights such as chandeliers, accent lamps, bath vanity strips, desk lamps, pendant fixtures, mini-pendants, floor lamps, desk lamps, picture lights, wall mounted sconces are among the many novelty that populates Farrey's. Outdoor lights are also not to be pushed aside in the scramble for unequalled visibility... Pier mount lanterns, Post mount lanterns, Flood lights, Deck lights, Landscape lighting and many more, also took center stage at Farrey's.

Farrey's has become the flashpoint, not just for customers but also several manufacturers who bring their product to this 'light solution' center. Either by lighting brand or by lighting application or by style, you can chose or select your own energy saving lighting for indoor or outdoor applications, to your lighting taste.

Rescue Your Home and Business With Mailboxixchange

If you have ever suffered from misappropriated mails, (like I did between March and August this year, when my hostile and envious neighbors hijacked my Google check of $931 U.S Dollars!), you will not think twice before rushing to Mailbox Exchange- the marketplace for residential mailboxes, commercial mailboxes and curbside decor.

It cost me an extra $28 to get the services of a secured express delivery through DHL monthly, to collect my checks and smiled to the bank. In your own case you do not have to pass through the same trouble, because Mailboxes Exchange would supply a portable and beautiful mailbox at your doorstep, with a limited life warranty and at a discounted and satisfactory price that you would enjoy for life when compared to your annual cost of mail delivery to your doorstep.

With over 1,500 highly protective and high quality product types and mailboxes, you can be assured that it is a dream come true for secured communication delivery. What more, you can make money as you refer the mailboxes to other who dearly need it. If you are in the USA, you would make an automatic $20 for signing up as affiliate of the Mailbox Exchange Affiliate program.

Over to you who desire to make more money both on the internet and as an affiliate.

Blog$verti$e and Mak€ Money!

Blogsvertise is the latest thing making the rounds in the mon€y-making blogosphere. I remember once upon a time when my good friend, Kumiko Suzuki was banned by Google, she energetically went ahead and made good earnings from PayP€rPo$t PPP. She practically became a queen in the PPP kingdom as she made a good showing from that income source. (Today, she has migrated to Bidvertise).

Back to Blogvertise. It is just on the PPP model and you can earn an envious sum monthly if you are a good blogger I advise you give it a shot while awaiting AGLOCO!

Are You LinkWorthy?

This is one advertising network that I 'strolled' into some few weeks ago. I decided to carry out a link worth experiment to see how it works for my blog here. I noted that the statistic churned out by it for my blog here as you can see is: Home Page Price- $5-$15; Sub Page Price- $5; Entire SiteRun Price- $50-$60. The criteria used for my blog was: Page Rank 3; link Rank- 2; Outbound links- 77; Pages Indexed- 177; Alexa Rank- 565,263

In comparison, I saw that John Chow's blog was well ranked too, by the LinkWorth parameter. Home Page Price- $65-$75; Sub Page Price- $30-$40; Entire SiteRun Price- $80-$100. John's Google Page Rank of 6 notwithstanding, he was given a link Rank- 3, though his has such a 'splendid' outbound link of- 63 (strangely lower than mine of 77) ; His Indexed Pages and Alexa ranking were naturally high @ 3,230 and 2,513 respectively.

As Agloco warms up to her reputation, we would be filling the one year vacuum left by Agloco with many blogger's advertising options in the next few weeks as I come across them.

Happy Blogging and money making, Thanks.

Know The Advertisers Behind Agloco

Many of Agloco network members did not know the advertizing powers that drive the AGLOCO model. In the last few weeks, I have seen so many affiliates of big organisations that have 'dragged' the name of the organisations to the AGLOCO viewbar to promote their products.

This is quite encouraging to many of us, as it signals that AGLOCO company (our company) is not lacking in 'juicy' advertising clients from diverse niches. This also gives us confidence that in the months and years to come, AGLOCO would be a great and highly competitive platform for many companies and product to showcase what they offer the online world.

With membership crossing about crossing the half-a-million, and heading for the million mark, it would be a great pleasure for many companies to have their products showcased in a million Viewbars to a million potential visitors and customers!!!

Don't forget that the AGLOCO goal is 10 million membership! AGLOCO is set to overtake the Google AdSense program, in the numerical numbers of partner platforms (websites or Viewbars) that showcases the products of advertizers.

We are proud to be part of the epoch making, transparent and accountable movement to enrich and financially empower millions on the internet. If you are already in the AGLOCO train, know that the population of internet users just crossed the 1 billion mark this June 2007. 10 million AGLOCO membership would just be 1% of that bustling crowd! If you have not joined, don't be declared missing in action- Get on board the AGLOCO train now, and download your own Agloco Viewbar and enjoy the fun of this historic movement of financial empowerment.

Below are some of the many Companies who are either directly advertising or whose affiliates are also advertising through AGLOCO Viewbar. The list is by no means exhaustive, but these have been the ones which caught my attention and compelled my attraction:

1. Yahoo! Small Business: Domain Names, Web Hosting, E-commerce ... providing products and services that enable you to establish and grow your business on the Internet.

2. Amazon The biggest online store for books and electronics and stuffs ...
Books, Music & Movies DVD & VHS Magazines & Newspapers Music Textbooks Unbox Video Downloads Clothing & Accessories Apparel Jewelry & Watches Shoes Computer Office Products Software Consumer Electronics Audio & Video Camera & Photo Cell Phones & Service Musical Instruments Video Games All Consumer Electronics Food & Household Gourmet Food Grocery Pet Supplies Health & Beauty Automotive Industrial & Scientific Lawn & Garden Equipment Tools & Hardware ..." blah blah blah

Shoebuy is the one-stop shop for all your footwear needs..." blah blah blah

4. Delivery dot Com - "Food at Your Fingertips! Fast, Easy Online Food Ordering & Delivery from Local reastaurants, New York, Chicago, San Francisco ..." blah blah blah

5. Cash Advance Network "Get a hassle free payday loan today! ... Cash to you the next day! ...

7. Smug Mug "The ultimate in photosharing, online photo albums, photo hosting and photo storage, ... Unlimited photos. No ads or spam. Gorgeous galleries..." blah, blah, blah,

9. OnSale dot Com "Buy Desktop computers, Laptop, Digital cameras and electronics, ..." blah, blah, blah

I hope to follow up on the other AGLOCO advertizers in subsequent posts, as I capture them from the Agloco Viewbar.

Top 20 Most Trafficked Blogs- How Much are They Worth?

Happy new month JULY! Yesterday was CANADA DAY, and in a few days' time (July 4), we would celebrate America's 231st birthday anniversary, marking the American declaration of Independence.

What Is Your Blog's Market Worth? Would You Sell?

Last month witnessed the sale of that robust and upcoming niche blog Career Ramblings by my dearly beloved and esteemed friend, Jane May. She sold it for a whopping $20,000!

This has thrown up a fresh debate in the blogosphere about the market value of blogs and whether to sell, and at what 'value'. Career Ramblings was making an average of $3,000 income monthly, at the time of sale. Normally the rule-of-the-thumb was applicable at the point of sale, which is: 'multiply the average income of a blog by 10', you would get the current market value.

Using Dane Carlson's Calculator for the worth of Blogs, I discovered that Jane's Career Ramblings was actually worth $139,441.38 That is about seven times the price paid for Career Ramblings. Carlson's parameter was based mainly on Technorati rankings, wich is more current than Google's Page Rank that was updated quarterly.

Quite some changes have taken place since the sale of Jason Calacanis Weblogs Inc. network, for an estimated 25-40 million Dollars in 2005. The MySpace, YouTube and DoubleClick have also been bought for $580 million, $1.65 Billion and $3.1Billion respectively by media mogul Ruppert Murdoch and Google. After calculating the worth of your blog with Dane Carlson's Calculator, you may head for the Sitepoint Marketplace for an adventure to offer your blog for sale if think it is worth the efforts.

Many other factors have also been imputed into the worth of these websites, prime amongst which is the terriffic level of visitor traffic to those sites. So I did an experiment with TTLB Top 20 most trafficked blogs in the world and Technorati Top Ranked Blogs, and compared their differnt worths.

The randomly selected blogs presented some strange results. having great and awesome daily traffic and not having a corresponding linkage on tecnorati which ultimately is the metric of Blog's financial worth.

This research and compilation is not absolute, in terms of many other sites and blogs out there, which had great traffic and linkage but were not ranked by Technorati.

This is just my simple contribution to the update of Blog's worth

AGLOCO: Low Payouts for June & July

Good News! Agloco company blog has informed us in the latest post titled: "Revenue and Cash Payouts" that, due to the sheer volume of users, and the need to improve the current Viewbar revenue through, correction of the weak ads rotation, and poor connection with other networks, which may take the next five to six weeks to complete and meet expected standards:

"... revenue for the months of June and July will be low, as the current system cannot be improved any faster".

The company also promised to take off at the end of August 2007 with, additional

"... online ad auction system like Google’s AdSense so advertisers will be able to buy Viewbar ads directly".

Cash Distributions:
In order to reach profitability quickly (which is necessary to make cash distributions), the company has been prudently keeping expenses to a minimum, saying:

"... we have tried to implement the less costly improvements while recognizing that the major changes will have to wait longer... but AGLOCO needs to become sustainable and make Member distributions as fast as possible".

On the 'mother of all questions' "When will I be paid by AGLOCO?" and, ... "How much will I be paid?" The company advised us not to engage in speculations, but should revisit the FAQ section, where the questions has been fully answered before now, clearly emphasising that, early revenues will not immediately translate into cash distributions to members, until when her current revenue outstrips her minimized operational costs.

It nevertheless assured us that all our accumulated hours will not be wasted, saying: "... both overall hours and monthly hours will be used in determining distributions to Members".

It further reminded us of what the FAQ section and previous blog posts stated that: we are building a sustainable business entity in the long term. It therefore counselled us not to expect immedite checks until "... after the first couple of months".

Alexa Viral Train

I was searching for Sohemoney's SERP scripts on Google, when I stumbled on a freelance web-designer - Darjan Panic from Slovenia, who joined an Alexa viral, link and after reading the piece, I felt that it is worth giving a try in order to improve my Alexa ranking (Agloco Hours blog is currently ranked 603,159). It is important so that we would be able to measure, in the next few weeks and months to come, if this Alexa train is really working.

The Viral Feeds and the Viral Tags really worked for my two blogs. The last three weeks has really improve the Technorati ranking and authority of my blogs. Telenovela Love Garden inched up from 19 to 31 while Agloco Hours leaped from 34 to 89.

I would be watching to see in the next one to three weeks, if this Alexa viral experiment would take my Alexa rank from the present 603,159. In the blogosphere, Alexa ranking is a major metric used by many advertising networks to determine how much money to pay you for participating in their projects.

The blogosphere has exploded with a buzz of ingenious link-building strategies in the last three months. The reason for this is the urge by bloggers to make more money with their blogging activities. Such monies would be bigger if they have higher rankings- Tecnorati, Alexa, Google page rank, etc.

Today names like Carl Ocab, the 14-yr old whizkid blogger, Gary Lee, Andy Coates, Jimmy Huen, Ilker Yoldas are all synonymous with viral trains, either, of the Technorati, Alexa, Icons, Tags, Feeds, etc. I am once again jumping into this Alexa Viral train through this post.

According to Carl:

"The idea is to make a list of bloggers with an Alexa redirect link to their
blog. We all know that if you go to a site through an Alexa redirect, the visit
is recorded by Alexa and it adds to your rankings! Cool"

To participate, just follow the rules:
