			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I used to get some LinkPost regularly from LinkWorth when I still have PageRank on my working blogs. The reviews are highly paid so I am always hoping to get more from LinkWorth. However, due to pagerank smack down, it&#8217;s not easy to get offers anymore considering that I didn&#8217;t mark down my price.</p>
<p>But with LinkWorth Jobs, you can just grab the offers by logging in to your account and check if you have any LinkPost Jobs available. If your blogs are qualified, the offers will appear in a green background. But if they are red, that means you can&#8217;t grab the offer.</p>
<p>By all means, it&#8217;s still another way of making money from your blog. Join <a href="http://www.linkworth.com/?a=3725">LinkWorth</a> if you haven&#8217;t done so.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are still writing paid reviews, this might be a piece of good news. Previously, if you signed up with LinkWorth, you will only get LinkPost if your blog is selected by advertiser. It&#8217;s like you are sitting there waiting for the opportunity to drop from the sky, that&#8217;s why I set higher price per review because I seldom get any now. I can&#8217;t blame anyone because PR0 is really useless when it comes to paid posts.</p>
<p>In a couple of days, LinkWorth will launch a new feature called LinkPost Job-Opps. You can read more about it <a href="http://blog.linkworth.com/">here</a>:</p>
<p>A new add-on to our LinkPost product is called Job-Opps. This not only gives a new way to build campaigns for advertisers, but it also gives partners a great new way to jump into the paying jobs. Our blog reviews have always run on a marketplace basis which is great for advertisers who want to handpick the blogs, but it’s not so great for bloggers who have a lot to offer and aren’t always selected. With LinkPost Job-Opps, advertisers create an outline for the type of review they’re looking for, minimum qualifications, the price per review and the number of job-opps available. Once listed, partners who have a blog that meets the qualifications and wish to apply, can do so until the job-opps available have been depleted. The approval process is being tweaked a bit while we try to decide if advertisers will be approving or declining submissions or if our staff will do this on their behalf. (Feel free to give your suggestions below) We are definitely excited to launch this new feature and it will be live within the next 10 days.</p>
<p>Frankly, I wonder if there will be abundant of offers because there are more hungry sharks out there as comparing to the fishes in the sea. Most bloggers with good blogs dare not risk their PR on paid reviews, and there are a lot of blogs with lower PR which are dying for the paid posts. Nonetheless, it&#8217;s nice to know that we have another network to grab opps, if you can get any!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I haven&#8217;t participated in any contest held by the blogosphere. But if you love contest, you might want to take part in the contest held by Linkworth where you will stand a chance of winning prizes like Wii, iPod, or $50 worth of credit in your account. So, are you interested? Just write a post about <a href="http://www.linkworth.com/?a=3725">LinkWorth</a>. It&#8217;s just as simple as that.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Rules and Regulations</strong>…don’t you hate these things?</p>
<ul>
<li>Must be signed up as a LinkWorth customer(can be advertiser, partner or combo)</li>
<li>All entries must be a new, original post and not something written prior to November 1st.</li>
<li>The entry must be a minimum of 250 words (not including the title: Just in case someone were to put something like “LinkWorth has helped me very,very,very,very,very,very,very much!”…I know none of you would ever do that though) <img src="http://blog.linkworth.com/smilies/yahoo_smiley.gif" alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" title=":)" height="18" width="18" /></li>
<li>When you have finished writing your blog entry, please send the link to <a href="mailto:scarlett@linkworth.com?Subject=LinkWorth-Contest-Entry">scarlett@linkworth.com</a>.  In the subject line, you can put      “LinkWorth Contest Entry”</li>
<li>Each customer has from November 1st thru November 30<sup>th</sup> 12:00 Midnight <span class="caps">CST </span>(-6:00 <span class="caps">GMT</span>) to submit their entry to me.  After that-no más!</li>
</ul>
<p>Rules and Regulations are subject to change with prior written notice.</p>
<p><strong>Prizes</strong></p>
<p>After much contemplating, we have decided that the best blog entry will receive a <a href="http://wii.com/">Wii</a>! For those of you who don’t know, it is the coolest video game player Nintendo has come out with. It’s completely virtual and can be a great workout if you don’t feel like hitting the gym one night!</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.linkworth.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/wii.jpg" title="Wii" rel="lytebox[linkworth-contest-time-how-easy-can-it-get]"><img src="http://blog.linkworth.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/wii.thumbnail.jpg" alt="Wii" /></a><br />
The next five winners(2-6) will receive a hip Ipod shuffle. You could upload anything from Bee Gee’s-Stayin Alive to your favorite <span class="caps">SEO</span> podcast.  Whatever floats your boat.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.linkworth.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/ipod-shuffle.jpg" title="Ipod Shuffle" rel="lytebox[linkworth-contest-time-how-easy-can-it-get]"><img src="http://blog.linkworth.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/ipod-shuffle.thumbnail.jpg" alt="Ipod Shuffle" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love this post from Linkworth. Go read all about &#8220;<a href="http://blog.linkworth.com/so-what-is-next-for-webmasters/">So What Is Next For Webmasters?</a>&#8220;. It really clears out a lot of my doubts and frustration over the recent page rank update. I&#8217;ve gone over it and I felt better now. Frankly, who will not be emotionally affected when you have more than 5 blogs demoted? But the thing is, I will find my ways on how to make money start from tomorrow. It might mean that I should be working harder, or I can just give up.</p>
<p>But I know that I will always put in my effort for the first 20 days of the month, and then slow down to enjoy my idle and easy life until the new month starts. See? I&#8217;m not only a money leech that sucks money, I know how to stop and enjoy the really good life I have as well.</p>
<p>BTW, check out this post about <a href="http://blog.linkworth.com/hypothetical-let-us-say-google-penalizes-people/">Let Us Say Google Penalizes People</a>. True enough, my blogs dropped 2 notches! Yikes!</p>
<p>Ok, let&#8217;s cross my fingers that I get some big money offers from <a href="http://www.linkworth.com/?a=3725">Linkworth</a> as I love working with them. Hopefully, I have lots of Linkpost in November.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I knew it&#8217;s my mistake for not changing the payment method fast enough, so I received another check from <a href="http://www.linkworth.com/?a=3725">Linkworth</a>. The whole transaction process will take about 30 days, so I better bank in the check as soon as possible without 90 days. I banked in the first one rather late because someone placed the check in the playroom without telling me about. By the time I saw the mail, it was more than a month ago!</p>
<p>So, for this second check, I better bank in faster. Very kiasu when it comes to money. LOL! Anyway, I&#8217;m still waiting for Adsense, and I wonder how long will it take to make that $100!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have read about some bloggers who earned a lot from <a href="http://www.linkworth.com/?a=5053">Linkworth</a> for the past few months. Personally, I can see that my pay check is getter more with Linkworth too but I haven&#8217;t explore the tools given further. I was lost in it because it looked so complicated to me when I first signed up. All I did was simply hantam the price, installed the codes and wait for miracles to happen.</p>
<p>But this time, I hope to spend more time exploring the tools and the products. There are so many terms that I have no idea what it is. Besides, there is a forum which I haven&#8217;t checked out yet. Hopefully, I will learn more about <a href="http://www.linkworth.com/?a=5053">Linkworth</a> from there.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>All I wanted to say when I saw that check is, &#8220;Cilaka!!! Why send check!&#8221;</p>
<p>I have forgotten to change the my payment details to Paypal when I signed up for Linkworth. You know, getting a check in US is going to be deducted for dunno-how-much by the bank and I will be getting lesser. Furthermore, my first check is only 30 bucks, what will be left after the deduction? So, I was cursing like hell over the check. LOL!</p>
<p>Needless to say, I changed my payment status immediately and hopefully they will transfer all my earnings to Paypal from now onwards because my payment increase <em>a lot</em> for the consequent month. Getting a check is not very exciting to me.</p>
<p>Oh ya, you can make money with <a href="http://www.linkworth.com/?a=5053">Linkworth</a>. Just  sign up if you haven&#8217;t done so.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I signed up with <a href="http://www.linkworth.com/?a=3725">Linkworth</a> not long ago, and I was clueless about how it works. After reading about it from its site and some reviews from a few bloggers, I decided to download its wordpress plugin and give it a try.</p>
<p>I only upload the plugin in one of my domains as I am not sure if it will generate the income for me. Only this home office blog is installed with the plugin and not the rest. The other domain of mine has <a href="http://www.text-link-ads.com/">Text Link Ads</a>, and I do not wish to mess things up. Since this home office blog doesn&#8217;t have any sponsored ads for the time being, I may as well give it a try.</p>
<p>Payperpost has been a bit slow lately, and I would like to diversify my income source from the internet. So far, blogging is still generating 90% of my monthly income, and I would like to see if I can get some income generate from pay-per-click programs.</p>
<p>I have no idea how promising Linkworth is, but I am willing to give it a try, and see if it works for me 3 months from now. If it is not working, the I will just disable the plugin. At the same time, I am worrying about spamming ads on my sponsored posts too. I assume that Linkworth works the same way as <a href="http://www.kontera.com">Kontera</a>. If so, there is a way of preventing this from happening as written by <a href="http://money.bigbucksblogger.com/kontera-control-plugin/">Big Bucks Blogger</a>. I will only have to worry about this, if I am getting any ads from Linkworth. For the time bring, I will leave my template alone.</p>
