Welcome to my most trusted tools! These are resources I recommend and have personally used to grow my various businesses. These include tools for starting a website, where to sell your stock photos, my favorite piano books, and more.
Please understand that some of these links are through affiliate programs. That means that at no additional cost to you, I get a small commission. I can even offer special discounts and deals too.
I am only recommending products that I use and would recommend to friends. Everything on here is my honest opinion that I want to share with others! The items below have worked for me and can work for you too!

Blogging and Website Resources
Total Theme from ThemeForest is what I use and recommend for your WordPress theme. It’s really easy to use, comes with great supports, lots of plugins, and very user-friendly. I am using it for My Income Journey and recommend it if you’re wanting a unique, custom, easy to use appearance to your website.
ShareASale is an affiliate marketing network that has been in business for 16 years and have 3,900+ affiliate programs. If you’re looking to monetize your blog I recommend signing up with ShareASale and applying to be an affiliate for companies you want to recommend.
FlexOffers is another affiliate marketing network that I use. They have over 6,000 affiliate programs and are very easy to work with. They are a must-have resource for making money with affiliate marketing.
Bigstock is a stock photography site where you can choose from thousands of images to use on your blog. There are many stock photography sites that have great photos and selection. I recommend Bigstock because you can use my link to get a free 14-day trial and download 5 images a day for a total of 70 free high quality images. No credit card required, cancel your trial at any time. If you continue with Bigstock and download more images, that’s great, if not then you have 70 free images to get you started!
