Hi

Can you give us the video resource link so that we can look into it.

Try refreshing your browser, or try URL in a different browser or mobile device.

Hi Abie,

I tried all those things and eventually went back to the first page which seemed to unlock it but I lost what I had done. Then I finished the tutorial with only text and no pictures. Once I published it I added a picture at the beginning with no problem.

I had thought it might be my end but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Can we contact someone directly for a problem on the WA website? I would have preferred that as it would be good to see what it was from their end or at least let the technical guys know.

Lily

It can be reported in the bug thread

Awesome thanks.
You always know the answers.

Lily

You're very welcome.

I gang I have someone trying to join for free from Morocco but they were asked to pay the $49. Does anyone know if this is because of the country?

Lily

Thanks so much for this Abie. I thought that might be the case. It seems that he can join for $49 but can't get the free start.

I understand why and will convey that information to him I appreciate the link from you.

Hi Lily

Ours is running great. I suggest emptying browsers cache and trying again.

Or try in a new browser.

Reset broadband.

Thanks Abie.
Great suggestions.
You are always first to help and I appreciate it.

This has happened before but I couldn't find a cause then either. Gremlins?

Lily 😆

So very welcome, hope you get sorted sooner.

Kindly let us know how you get along.

Why am I not getting Offered Cash credits for my comments after the 50 comment mark?

I am a certified commentator but suddenly my cash credits have stopped.

Lily<

You don't get paid cash credits for site comments unfortunately. Otherwise we'd be able to sit and read other peoples posts all day long and make a living from it. Instead, you get paid "community Credits"
The purpose of this is to keep the site a "pay it forward site". Like a swap shop for comments. Feedback also works the same. So if you spend some time reviewing other peoples work and adding comments until you have accumulated community credits. Then you can use these to get some comments and feedback on your own site, pages or posts. It's a great Idea, but unfortunately not one thats going to make you money directly.

CASH CREDITS on the other hand are earned by referring New members to Wealthy Affiliate. Even if it's only as far as the Starter membership, you'll still get a Cash credit which is worth 50 cents a credit.
However, in order to be paid out, at least 40% of these referals must upgrade to a paid membership plan.
So for example, you refer 12 people and 4 of those referalls upgrade to Premium or premium plus memberships. First of all your Credits account will be credited with 12 Cash credits (=$6).
Now when 4 members upgrade to a paid plan, not only will you recieve the $23 each for the commission for their membership upgrades, but you will also get 10 of your cash credits become available since 40% of those (the 4 upgrades) upgraded.

So you CAN actually make money from Starter member referalls only, but only if 40% of them upgrade. Unfortunately it wont work for Starter plan referalls alone, or it would be much easier as all we'd need to do is get people to join FREE and we'd make money.

Ths is not to say that our referrals who join Free are of no use to us. Even if someone does sign up just so they can get a Free chance to make a website, they may well change their minds and actually find the Premium Membership may be of use to them Afterall. Perhaps not straight away, but next year or in a few months. As far as I'm aware, there's no expiry date on Cash credits.

I Dunno if this is what you were looking for but i hoe it helps.
Good Luck!
Kev

Hi Kev, thanks for this full answer I appreciate your input.
I was actually getting paid 50c for every second comment and wondered why it had stopped. Apparently it only works when people are paying for comments so it comes and goes even if you are a certified commentator.

Can anyone tell me who originally said "The money is in the list." ?

Can't find it anywhere.

Hi, Lily, unfortunately I don't think you'lll ever find out. Lists of customers, or subscribers as we now know them, existed long before Internet Marketing,

Direct Mail, incidentally over 100 years old and still going strong, and the companies that used it, built up their list of customers by sending letters or brochures to people extolling their products or services.

Once a person purchased a product or service, they were added to the list, very much the same as in Internet Marketing. So it is highly likely that the phrase "The Money is in the List" was coined long before the WW and internet Marketing. Hope this helps. Best wishes.

I think you might be right Harry.😁

Hi Lily
I cannot help you but I know someone who can. If in the UK you watch a programme called Countdown you will be aware of the person who works in Dictionary corner called Susie Dent, who in real life is a Lexicographer and Etymologist. Part of the programme she goes into the origins of words where viewers ask what did they word or phrase originate from. She has a Twitter account
(search under the name Susie Dent) and if you explain your situation, she may answer. I know it is a long shot. I know she has written books on the subject and you can dwell into them.
That is my suggestion

What a wonderful suggestion I will get onto it. Thanks.
Lily 😊🎶

I don't know who said it Lily,
These lists actually originate from Government census's
These can then be bought and divided into buying demographics and other data, which can then be used by companies to find out who to market their products to.
These lists are very well organised. You could say extremely well organised !.
Copywriters wanting to push their own "How to..." also are buyers of these lists. they might only want 5,000 names and address's for ?? whatever, and the money they pay for them is to test to see if the product is going to sell or bomb.
As to who said " the money is in the list" you could take a punt on everyone from the tea lady, to some bureaucrat who sold the first list, or the guy who bought the first list.

I did a job on the North side of Brisbane for an import / export agent years ago. A very interesting character. He used these lists ( and it is where I first heard of them).
He had bags of plastic horse shoes he was going to make a fortune on, but it was against the rules of horse racing in Australia, but ok in New Zealand (where he had bought them along with plastic 10 kg beer kegs, or whatever size the Kiwis use. Instead of taking a carton to a party they take a keg).
I had shares in a race horse at the time, so he gave me a few bags of these plastic horse shoes. They were allowed to be used in training, but not on race day.
Interesting question Lilly. Happy New Year. I hope 2021 goes well for you.
Michael.

Hey Michael, you are so knowledgeable and interesting. Plastic horseshoes. Goodness me.
I'm determined to track this down, it must be somewhere in the world.

Looking to a very prosperous 2021 and working hard at it with a copywriter.

Wishing you a great year too.
Lily 😁🎶

I slept on this question last night Lilly, and I have come up with 3 suspects that could deserve further investigation.
As we know, Rulers ( not the measuring kind), loved doing census's. So they knew who in the list had the money.

So it could have come from about the time the term "worth their salt" was coined, which comes from the time legionnaires, were paid a salarium (salary) to buy salt.

When Gaius Marius, who was a ruler around that time was recruiting non property owners for service in the military after a series of defeats, the Roman senate asked where the money was coming from.
Gaius Marius held up a scroll and made a sweeping motion with his other arm and said, " I soldi sono in questa lista, " ( The money is in this list)... pointing at various Senators.

The Sherriff of Nottingham comes in as suspect number 2, equal with Queen Isabella of Spanish Inquisition infamy, where minorities were converting to her religion to avoid excessive taxation, and of course the rack.

Number 3 could be a couple of insurance guys discussing how they were going to pay for some disaster.
Like the great Chicago fire of 1871 for instance, which started when Mrs O'Leary's cow knocked over a lantern.

Have fun with it Lilly.
Michael.

Damn Mick, you sure know a lot on this. I loved reading the reply- thanks

This is great Michael and so interesting. Mind out for cows.
