I Should Have Stayed In Bed!

This has been a very FRUSTRATING DAY!! I usually get up so excited to get started on my sites every single day. However, today has been nothing but PROBLEMS!!

The first thing I discovered was that my site, supportmilitaryheroes.org was showing up on Page 1 of Google!! Wooo Hooo! That is the good news. The bad news is, when I clicked on it, it took me to a T Mobile advertising site??? What??? Upon further investigation, I discovered that my site is INVISIBLE!! It is not showing up! It turns out that I thought I had transferred 4 different domain names to WA from Hover, but they were not transferred! So Hover deleted them because I did not pay Hover. I thought I had paid Wealthy Affiliate??/ I freaked out thinking my domains were lost, but it turns out you have 40 days from the expiration to renew the domains before they are permanently lost.

It turns out that I may be the problem. When I transferred them to WA, I waited for the domains to transfer. However, I was supposed to go back into the domain site, and click on "Transfer to WA". I have not done that. The reason being that message just showed up and I just found it today. I am still communicating with WA and Hover to try and figure out how to resolve this MESS!!

I was afraid I would lose all of my websites that I have spent almost a year building! But I am O.K. thanks to the 40 day grace period that is allowed on domains. WHEW!! Thank God!! I am hoping to get this mess straightened out today so I can move on!

As if that weren't enough in the problem arena, I went in to try and "Leave Comments" so I could get some points so I can have others look at some of my pages/posts. I got a message that said: "We're sorry, too many of your previous comments have been reported as spam, being inappropriate, or low quality. You do not have the ability to leave further comments." I was stunned to say the least! I got 3 denials, over the last 6 months, from people who I left comments on. I have no idea what I did wrong??? And I don't know how to fix it! I have contacted support to see if they can help me on both of these issues. The air has just been let out of me! I am very down right now, but still hopeful. I think I can fix the first problem. Not sure about the second problem. Just so everyone knows: I do not leave spam on anyone's site. One woman wrote I was inappropriate because I did not ask specific questions about her site?? What?? And I don't even know what "low quality" means??

Just thought I would vent! Also, just wanted to make everyone aware of these issues. I know they are both my fault. I really screwed up on the transfers because I did not understand, and I still don't know what I did wrong to warrant my comments being disallowed and affecting me this way. Anyone else had these problems??

Sorry to hear that, although this may be frustrating for you, you are teaching us all valuable lessons. Im sending you positive energy. Sleep well tonight.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE POSITIVE ENERGY!! I really do appreciate it! I do want everyone here to at least know what kind of problems can happen, and if I can, I try to let everyone know how to solve them. It doesn't make sense for a lot of us to experience problems if someone else has been there before us. The bottom line is helping each other so we don't spin our wheels!

take a break and relax , tomorrow is another day .
Sometimes we think to hard and focus to much on the issue when the answer is right in front of us

I took a break for several hours. Decided I should answer everyone. But as for the problems, I am going to bed and hopefully, tomorrow I will be able to solve them with a clearer head.

every morning brings on a new challenge...be READY! and Press ON!

You are right about that! This morning I thought to myself how my life was about the same every morn. I guess I should have tried to block that thought! Maybe this is just a wake up call and a little glitch to show me things do change. Just when we get comfortable, something happens to shake things up. I will tackle it tomorrow and hopefully solve my problems.

YES! you WILL! People like you do NOT fail!

Just another little bump in the road on the path to success. Wish I could be of help but it's beyond my training. You will find a way to fix this, I'm sure.

Best Wishes,

TONY

THANK YOU for offering. I am working on the fix. I am really good at solving problems! But sometimes you wish you didn't have to solve the problem. But I am the only one that can solve it. Hopefully, tomorrow I will have a clearer head!

It will all be fine in the end. At least you haven't lost your sites. ;-))

Yes, THANK GOD I have not lost my sites! I was really worried that I had, especially when Hover told me they had deleted them! They just deleted the names, and I have 40 days to fix it. Obviously, I will take care of it ASAP!! My sites were already here and protected, so I am going to be O.K.

See what the morning brings. keep on Connie!

You got that right! Off to bed I go. These problems will have to wait until tomorrow when I am thinking clearer!

ugh...i hope all gets straightened out soon

THANK YOU! I am working on it, but it is far too complicated to try and solve tonight. I will give it another try tomorrow.

Glad you got of bed (before the 40 day expiration) and glad you resolved the first problem. You are resilient, bouncing back so quickly and still ready to push on. I had a similar problem with entering comments for the first time. I added comments on the actual website and provided feedback instead of comments in the box on WA site. Yes, human error because it was apparently unclear to me until I received the disapprove notice with the ugly explanation. It seemed more hurtful because I couldn't respond to explain that it was a misunderstanding. I did my first 3 comments that way. Luckily the other 2 were accepted. I said all that to say that I can relate with the comment issue. Anyway, I got over it because I know, like you know, that you are not a spammer, and that whatever you are doing is a training misunderstanding problem, not an integrity problem.
I'm not sure how to correct the problem, but you should post a question about Inappropriate Comments Status. I know you will have better days. Much success!

THANK YOU for your support! I really appreciate it! We are all human, and we do make mistakes. I just find it hard to accept that we don't know what we don't know! Fortunately, mistakes are how we find out what the problem is. And we all can learn from our mistakes. I will post a question tomorrow when my head is more clear. I am going to bed tonight!

Wow. Just when you are excited to start this day all of that happened. So sorry to hear this experience!!
Once you have everything transferred hopefully NONE of those negative things will happen here.
It sounds so messed up at Hover and seems that the issues are there, and not your doing, not your fault.

Take a deep breath, this will be behind you before you know it. This is temporary and soon, all of your websites will be secured here. Hoping for the best!

THANK YOU for the positive reinforcement! I always try to stay upbeat, but sometimes life gets in the way! I think I have almost resolved the first problems. Not sure about the second one though. I will try again tomorrow. A new dawn - a new day! It turns out that the problem is with the server company. So tomorrow I will contact them and hopefully get the first problem solved. Not sure what to do about the second. I will deal with that tomorrow.

You are welcome. I know it can be hard to think positive but I've learned to stop and focus on that which takes practice.
I hope by the time you read my message the whole situation is solved and you can put it behind you :)

So sorry for your struggles! May God bless you with a much better day tomorrow!

Terri

Yes, THANK YOU! I have decided to call it quits for tonight! Hopefully, things will look better in the morn!
