Hello!

I was wondering if it's considered "bad form" to promote products from multiple vendors on your site?

Okay great, I'll check the ToS before signing up. Thank you. :)

It's not bad form, but it can be against the terms of certain affiliate programs. Make sure that you read the terms of each program before doing so.

You should always read the T&Cs; of everything you sign up to, most affiliate programs allow you to promote other programs but a few demand exclusivity.

Thank you!

Hello!

I have both of these plug-ins installed. Do I need both, or can I use one? If I can use just one, then which should I use?

I'm trying to remove unneeded plu

Awesome, WP Spamshield it is.

Thank you all for your input!

I use WordPress Antispam and nothing gets through it.

I dropped both of those and simply have WP SpamShield It works great - zero spam

Hello!

I was clearing out my spam folder and I noticed some comments which looked legit were flagged for using a "CSS Hack," while one was marked for using a fake ip. I c

I haven't looked in my spam folder. Should I?

No.

I wouldn't bother.

The only one of those comments that is legit is the one from Tina - but it's been marked as Spam as it's a very generic comment full of platitudes but no specific details. It's the type that you often see in Spam comments.

But this time it's from a fellow WA member has given you.

The others are all obvious Spam - the email addresses & content give it away.

Thanks IMc,

I took approved Tina's comment and replied to it.

I looked at the emails like you mentioned, and yeah...what normal person would have have an addy like: yxkw1i313401dmxw93x@gmail[dot]com? Lol.

I just finished purging my spam folder.

Thank you for your help!

I have found the odd one that looks legit, but for all the spam they do block, I rarely even bother checking the spam folder.

I rarely check my spam folder too. I had comments dating back from May 2015. XD

I approved one comment and dumped the rest.

Thank you for replying to my question!

My pleasure :-)

I’ve approved a few of my spam comments that to me look legit. Based on the image you gave, I think the only legit is the one from Tina. The one from Cedric is totally spam. I got that as well with a different name but same comment.

Hey Juneyo,

I approved Tina's comment, and deleted everything else. After having another look, I figured the majority were shady.

Thanks for helping me. :)

You're welcome. Glad I could help =)

Spam checking algorithms can sometimes be incorrect, so checking through your spam logs is important. However, it's also important to note that sometimes you will get comments that look legitimate but actually aren't.

As a general rule, approving a comment that is spam isn't really going to do your site much harm, particularly if you make sure you don't approve any with URLs in them,

It gets tricky! They actually had me second guessing my judgement.

Ahh, gotcha. I always remove URL's from comments, unless what they're linking is completely awesome. No, you can't have any of my link juice!! XD

Thanks Vince, I appreciate it!

Yeah. Every so often you find comments with a cool link but that's extremely rare. After all, there aren't that many legitimate reasons to include a url in the comment on someone else's site.

I have a Pro subscription to Jaaxy which is running at $19/mo, and I want to upgrade to Yearly Enterprise. Do I have to pay the whole $499 or will the remainder of my Pro subsc

Alright well, thanks. I was hoping for a different answer, lol. But what can ya do..?

Your $19 per month will cease and be cancelled and you'll pay 499 with your year membership starting the day you join.

Jaaxy: will I get a pro-rated price?

I typed in a keyword with a QSR of ZERO and has the potential to bring over 46,000 visitors if my site ranks. This is acc

I suggest that you clear the temporary cache of your computer each time you do a search for the same keyword, even when using different keyword tools.

As far as I know, Google provides for searches people do in Google and the result is based on an average calculation over a specific period of time.

Both the WA keyword tool and Jaaxy provide data drawn from all the big search engines combined and are more current.

As to variation between WA and Jaaxy results, I recall Kyle or Carson explaining that the WA keyword tool is user driven based on where the user places the search, whereas Jaaxy is server driven based on where the server is located and this can cause variations though not enough to affect decision making.

For Google searches, use the browser in incognito or private mode to make sure that you do not get personalized results based on your own searches, especially if you are logged in to any of your google accounts. ~Jude

Thanks for the explanation.

I cleared my history before doing the search. I've set my Firefox browser to clear the history when I close it out. Chrome is my secondary browser, and I use the incognito window whenever I do research.

I got the same number of potential visitors from both tools, but the QSR from the WA tool does say 365. It could be a glitch in Jaaxy. :/

Different results happen. Sometimes different tool different stats

Thanks Guang. I think it's a bug in Jaaxy.

So looking at the competing sites, are any of them using the exact same keyword as you typed in? Or are they using variations with different words?

How do I actually see the competing websites? When I page through the SERP's I see a lot of sites with the exact phrase while others are using variations of it.

The keywords used are highlighted in the serp.

Right, but how do I *only* see the sites that are competing for that exact keyword instead of sifting through the serp?

Ah I see. I am sorry. i do not think there is a way to do that.

Lol, no worries.

Usually seeing a ZERO is a glitch. Try it again. What is the keyword?

I think so too. The phrase is what is a keyword.
