1. I tried to search my website on google but my keywords and descriptions were missing. I nstead got this error message:

'A robots.txt file restricts

Thanks Phil, I shall try the backup while waiting for an solution to the Robots.txt stuff.

Hi there. Can't help you with number 1 sorry.

To back up your site...

Log into your website >>> Dashboard >>> Tools >>> Export >>>

A new page will open up.

Then in "Choose what to export" click "All content" then Download Export File.

Depending on your settings, the downloaded file may be in your Downloads folder. Remember if you open the backup file, you'll only see a bunch of gibberish. This is the code Wordpress reads.

Hope this helps.

Phil.

I've just been to Go-Daddy, searched my domain name and it was available. So clicked through to the next page to purchase it. However, I was presented a bill of $26.99 which was

Sorry, I did not mention that the charge was for 2 years. I expected $21.98 @ 10.99 each not $26.99. However, my concern was not the money, but the fact that I lost my domain name.

You could also try lowestdomainrates. This domain site is super easy to use and very straight forward and they never automatically make you buy more years. You can from the start purchase more years, but it is never done automatically without you personally doing it and knowing about it. Additionally, after purchasing your domain, you can set it so when it come up for renewal, it can automatically renew or not... your choice. It is also one of the easiest interfaces I've ever worked with. It's super easy.

Hey Angel, Thank you for your comment, dig it

First of all, I'm sorry to hear that happened to you. Things like that do happen, though not often. I think I found the problem. GoDaddy automatically sets you up for 3 years, if you just want one you have to set it there manually. They most likely charged you 10.99 for the first year, and 7.99 for each year thereafter plus ICANN fees.

1. There really is nothing you can do about it, unless you were a conglomerate such as Microsoft to claim cybersquatting. Unfortunately in your case the answer is no.

2. Become more familiar on how the checkout processes work for each domain registrar.

3. You get one free email credit with every domain purchased, so you don't need to buy that. All the other add-ons aren't necessary, and I wouldn't recommend letting anyone but yourself handle your SEO. The only add-on that I would think to be ok to purchase is the Privacy add-on, and that is only if you don't want people using the WHOIS feature to find out your contact information.

Hope this helps.

Wealthy affiliate is more of a business school, the difference is that you know exactly where you are going, before even you are graduated. It is a business school that starts you

I think that you are right on the money with your overview of What Wealthy Affiliate is. Our primary focus is to offer the highest quality training, tools, and support within the online business world and folks who follow the courses are achieving success!

"Quick Money" does not exist anywhere in the world of online business, the best place to learn to build a real business is right here at WA!

Carson

Thanks Carson for your comment. Yes, I agree absolutely. Quick money is an illusion. Unfortunately many unscrupulous minds has used it to mislead many. There is something that is not illusions, the fact that knowledge is power, power to change ones life - power to create wealth. What is important is to find where to obtain the right knowledge.
I believe Wealth Affiliates' top quality e-business education is the right place.
