Hello Rob,
I wanted to send a private message but thought posting my question here would benefit others as well.

I just started thinking about diversifying my income following the guidance presented in your article, so I as to be able to earn a side income while building out my website.

My questions are:
1. Do we have to sign a contract once hired for a job?

2. How do recruiters actually communicate with freelancers that are working outside their country?
Is Skype a professional way without utilizing the freelancer.com platform at all?

3. Is it okay or not necessary to know the details of the person you are working for? Like their company name etc.

4. How do one get paid?

5. How can I ensure the opportunity is legit not a scam?

I know my questions are more like an article now, but would sincerely appreciate your response and help regarding them.

Thank you very much.

Awesome! thanks for giving me the idea and with the training we receive here I will be trying diversifying my income. We can all use a side hustle right? ;)

I hate to suggest this, but perhaps it is theme related?

Wow! 400 posts/pages? That is a lot.

According to PageSpeed Insights anything over 86 is a good speed.

If your speeds are in the 60s and 70s you will need more speed.

Do you have the SiteSpeed Accelerated activated on your website? Judging by your current speeds I would guess that you don't.

I highly recommend SiteSpeed. What Carson and the tech guys at WA created here is an awesome way to increase our website speed and thus our Google rankings.

\u2b50\ufe0f Actually -- it's quite brilliant! ... it's like a mirror image of the whole internet -- WA platform ... or is it more like a mini operating replica? ... just getting my brain around it ... this Platform is amazing ...

... thanks kindly for all your helpful hints & tips ...

... going to re-visit everything -- conceptually this is brilliant ! ... i think ... \ud83d\ude0a

Great info! Thanks!
Do we need to Google fetch our WA blog post?

Very informative as always ! So I pressed the like button, but other than copy and pasting the affiliate link, how do you go about sharing good tutorials like this one easily ? I don’t see a share button ?

Do you have a Windows computer or an Apple?

Mary, have you read all 4 lessons in this training by Rob (boomergp08)?

One he talks about is Pixabay, which offers many free images for commercial use without attribution.

Robert,

Thank you very much for putting this together.
I think this will help me at least a bit with my struggles.
I believe maybe I am looking at the wrong things when choosing a theme.
When I think of themes. I think of the images, so I find myself seeking a theme where the images represent my niche. I am now starting to understand that this isn't something to focus on. That we can change our images to suit our niche?

Is this correct?

One final thing, do you of any assistance that will help walk us through the different features of WordPress? I am sure I am not the only person that maybe doesn't understand all the features so it makes it hard to pick exactly what we might want in our theme.

Thank you again,

Greg

Robert
I use this training a lot - thanks.
It appears that MesoColumn is no longer supported by WordPress.
Do you have a recommendation for one with similar features?

What is the benefit to a healthcare niche regularly posting original articles on WA instead of posting on the niche site?

Well written Boomer! I am new on WA still figuring out how things work in this world. I would like to know if my content on WA needs to be original or duplicate of my niche site?

I think you misunderstood. I don't want all these image sizes. They appear under 'EWWW'. I think my Theme chooses these sizes. See attached image. There's the option to disable them.
I only want the original size and the thumbnail size. I just want to know which section I'd add the image size in. 'Media settings' or 'EWWW settings'?

Great trainng Robert.

Can you tell me something. I also size my images to 800x500 for feature images before uploading. However, I use Divi theme and the featured images on a blog roll are large by default. I have some code to make these images reduced by 40% on my home page blog roll.
So, I suppose they become thumbnails. I set my 'Media' sizes to 0,0,0 as you suggested. But I want these thumbnails created at the 40% size, which is approximately 320x200. So, do I set this size in the 'Media' setings or 'EWWW Image Optimizer' settings?
I also have all these sizes in my EWWW 'Resize Setting' tab.
et-pb-post-main-image - 400x250
et-pb-post-main-image-fullwidth - 1080x675
et-pb-portfolio-image - 400x284
et-pb-portfolio-module-image - 510x382
et-pb-portfolio-image-single - 1080x9999
et-pb-gallery-module-image-portrait - 400x516
et-pb-post-main-image-fullwidth-large - 2880x1800

I assume I should also tick 'Disable Creation' checkbox for all these.

Any advice would be grateful.

HI Robert
Thanks for this very helpful lesson.

If you share a WA blog/training will non-members still be able to get access to the blog?
How do it exactly? Click on the blue affiliate button and copy that link to your content or to your photo whichever you want?
I assume I will get the affiliate commission even if it is not my blog?

Peace and all the best

Hi Robert,

I went through this training quite a while ago, perhaps when you first posted it, it did make sense to me and bookmarked it as I knew that one day it would come handy.

At the time, I wanted to remain focused on the Bootcamp training before exploring new techniques.

Since a couple of months, the number of new referrals that I am getting has seriously dropped. Appart from a couple of websites that I have created, I have been promoting affiliate products extensively on social platforms, that includes WA affiliate links.

Till now it worked very well (till about 2 months ago). Then I came across this training of yours, which answered my question: Why has it stopped working?.. I found the answer in your training: the social platforms I am posting on are blocking my posts!

So, I decided to give your idea a try. I am now working on two new small sites. It is indeed very easy to do.

I have a question though:

Following what you are saying that we don't need to worry about SEO, ranking, producing lots of content, etc., I am assuming that we also don't need to worry about duplicate content, right? Not that I intend to copy from other sites anyway, but it is just to know what your think.

I wish you the very best and thanks for producing this useful training which I am sure is very useful for many members at Wealthy Affiliate.

Thank you for this, very helpful. I have been struggling with this because I have read and learnt a lot about making money online, but have never actually done it for various reasons. I do enjoy the subject and want to go into personal development, life coaching and internet business, that kind of thing. so I wasn't sure if I should do that and take the bootamp course. After reading this it sounds like I should leave the personal development stuff for now, and come back to it later, is that rite?

Would you know Sir if image links and text links have the same affect on your ranking, I was wondering if one was better than the other to be using?
