Working at Home on the Internet

Cancelling My Blogs B-Day Carnival

New Here? You may want to Subscribe to my RSS feed for daily updates. Or if you prefer, Subscribe by Email What is RSS? Thanks for visiting!

 

Although the Blog B-Day Carnival went fairly well for the month of October, this month (November) only had 3 submissions.  The submissions received were not in the Spirit of the Carnival (they were Spammy) so I have decided to cancel it.

If you would like to host any future Blog B-Day Carnivals, you are more than welcome. Go to the Blog Carnival Page and send your information through the contact page there.

I will not be adding any further Blog B-Day Carnivals to be hosted here.

For those of you interested and/or participating in the Working at Home Blog Carnival, it will continue as usual every Friday (including tomorrow).  It continues to grow every week, and promises to have some of the best articles on the subject of working at home.

Blog-Tipping VII

Easton Ellsworth of Business BlogWire started a thing called Blog-Tipping a couple of months ago. On the first of each month, we should pick three Bloggers we read and give them three compliments and a helpful tip. Since I think it is such a great idea, I thought I would try my hand at it another time (This has become a really fun habit).

 

So, for This Months Blog-Tipping Event:

Working Solo by Leah MacLean…

1.  Even though your Blog is directed at the Small Business Woman, it has information and tips that can help any entrepreneur, male or female run a small business.

2.  Your writing is easy to read and friendly.  You write from your own experiences as well as bringing information you find to the table.

3.  I appreciate your sense of humor, especially in some of the cartoons you use for illustration. (where do you get them anyway?)

Tip:  You might consider making it easier to access your archives, I’m sure there is a lot of good stuff in there.

 

Start a Side Business by Pascal…

1.   I like the nice clean look of the Blog.  Easy to read, easy on the eyes and a nice overall layout

2.  You have some really interesting Carnivals and always add your own flavor to the mix.

3.  Your articles always give pertinent information on whatever topic you choose, we need more of your writing more often.

Tip:  You may want to put an RSS icon in the sidebar or head for easy subscription to your feed.

 

Who is Andrew Wee by Andrew Wee…

1.  I really like the redesign of your Blog.  It is a lot easier to read and to navigate.

2.  You always make the visitor feel welcome.  You let them know you like them being there.

3.  The information you provide is always timely and useful.  You practice what you preach by testing anything you recommend first.

Tip:  Please get rid of the automatic voice.  It’s good to hear you but give me the opting to click to hear you.  It may just drive newcomers away if they don’t like that kind of thing (and many don’t).

 

I think this is a worthwhile project and hope you try your hand at Tipping a Blog(ger) next month. My plan is to continue this project monthly because I like the whole idea of being helpful to other Bloggers and sharing the Link Leak Virus in this way as well.

I know this is a day early, but the Working at Home Blog Carnival is scheduled for tomorrow!

 

Have you Tipped a Blog lately? Who was it? How did it make you feel?
