Every video lesson I tr to watch stops either 30 seconds in, or at the half way point the video stops, I get a "system error" alert stating that a network problem caused the vid

Same problem only the video won't play at all because of network or format. Gotta move forward.

Sounds like a buffering issue.

Someone else was having a problem, you may want to submit a tech support ticket. :))

It could be your download speed causing the problem or there could be something interfering with the transmission. I would make sure that you don't have your device near a TV or any appliance that has power as the magnetic field will interfere with the picture

thank you, have already checked that. my network seems to be good. and I did notice that it doesnt seem to be happening on all the videos, only certain ones. That's why I dont think its anything on my end.

Im still basic. I'm trying to watch "Building and accessing your website" and every time the video gets to the point of showing how to log into your website the video just stops.

I'm not doing the Bootcamp, but have either one of you put in a support ticket for help? Kyle and/or Carson need to be made aware that there is a problem. Michelle

I've sent a PM to Kyle, how do i put in a support ticket?

All you do is go into the light blue "Build My Website" link to your left and at the top of the page on the right, it says "Support Tickets."

You might get help there quicker. Even though you've sent Kyle a message, I'd do this as well. I'm noticing this is a problem for many people lately.

Also, watch live chat, because Kyle spends time there frequently. Catching him there would be faster, as well.

Sorry you're having trouble! Michelle

Hi Christopher - I have lines all over my videos when I try to watch them. I am awaiting an answer also. Hope we both hear something soon. I am in the Bootcamp Lessons, which one are you trying to watch?

Can anyone please tell me what the cost for Jaaxy is after the 30 day trial?

Do not let the financial stress allow you to give up. If you can't afford Jaaxy right now, you can always sign up when you get an income flow started. You can use Google keywords, WA's keyword tool, and the hanging fruit technique. Right now, keep building your content using those tools. You do not have to have extra money to be successful. If you can afford the monthly WA fee, then that's all you need right now. It costs nothing for Goodle Adsense and other affiliate programs so add those using the WA training for guidance. You CAN do this! Please don't let the thought of another payment stop you. I would really hate to see you give up on your goal this early in the game.

I know how you are feeling. Before I joined WA, I was dabbling in the IM but getting very frustrated. There was NO_ONE that I could count on to help me. Everyone wants money! I had already been there_done that. But after I joined WA, my attitude changed.
Yes, again like you - another freaking monthly payment. I was loading up again. I felt I was going the wrong way. But then I realized I was investing into myself. I wasn't creating more debt, but actually investing into my future.
I am building for my future, because it is only a matter of time before my day job will be history. I am too young to retire but too old to start over. So I see this as my new day job - not today, not even next week. But everyday I build and write a page on my website, I am one page closer to my business supporting me.
Jaaxy is a tool that is the most important tool you have next to your computer. You just can't afford to not have it and use it. But if all this is too expensive for you then you only have to choose between two choices... Get out totally and quit; or reshuffle your debt and invest into yourself. I hope you choose wisely my friend. Good luck and God Bless you.

Thanks everyone. I really appreciate the input. I'm just financially at the breaking point right now and there's no way I'm going to be able to manage another monthly bill so I'm going to have to make the decision of whether or not to cancel my membership. I guess after the monthly W A membership, I wasn't expecting to keep having to pay for more and more. I don't have the extra money to be successful here, but my deepest thanks for the time all of you took to respond.

$19 a month. A bargain for the price, because keywords are the essence of SEO for a website.

Marine Mom explained it well all the best

Its $19.o per month and in my opinion worth every penny

Barry

What I learned from the free version (limited word searches) is that I am either in the wrong niche, or I still need to get smaller. Other than that I can't help you.

$19 per month for Pro, $49 per month for Enterprise. Click on Jaaxy in your menu for all of the information.

What I came to learn is that the pro and enterprise version are very much alike. Ok, you get all information (like QSR, KQI) right away with the enterprise version and jaaxy searches about 5 times faster. Other than that the pro version is very good, too. Just my thoughts :) Good luck!

you can either go pro for $19 a month, or enterprise for $49, if you go to their website they have a very good brake down of what each service offers, hope this helps

I have been having a great deal of difficulty choosing a niche. How do I know what's right for me? I have a couple of choices, and I don't want to do Affiliate Bootcamp just y

Thanks for all the help and great suggestions! I think I've managed to make my choice for the first attempt. You've all been absolutely great!!

Hi. I'm not sure if you've seen this but it's one of my favourites. Hope it helps. https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/kyle/blog/a-niche-is-a-group-of-people-looking-for-stuff

Thank you Rick, I appreciate this very much!

My blog post here may help a little

https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/bazboy247/blog/how-to-choose-a-niche-think-like-a-marketer

Barry

What are you passionate about? What makes your heart sing and gives you a boost of energy and joy? Your niche will be something that you are going to enjoy writing about, giving reviews and advice on to others who are also interested in the same subject. Choosing a subject you enjoy will make it much easier to stay focused and motivated. Your passion will show in your work also and the people who visit your site to read your content can sense that and thus want to sign up and come back to visit again and again. It really does make a difference in achieving success to follow your passion while helping others at the same time. What I love about choosing a niche is you make money from helping others who find your advice helpful. Hope you achieve great success here at WA Christopher. Blessings. :)

Thank you Abigail, I really do want this to be a positive experience and if I could help people while making money, that would truly be the best of both worlds. I guess the difficulty I'm having is whether or not there is a market for one of my passions - I have many interests and that's what seems to be throwing me off.
I'll keep working on narrowing it down. Thank you so much for your advice!

Remember to trust your intuition when it comes to making a choice. Don't let self doubt hold you back as you have nothing to lose really. The internet is global and your niche will target those who genuinely share a similar interest, so your customers will be quality and there is enough room for us all to succeed. They will find you, just believe in your self and it is going to show in everything you do. There is no rush, perhaps spend some moments writing down a list of your niche ideas and see how it feel as you imagine the possibilities. :)

When my cousin first introduce me to WA, I right away had the thought that I would not know where to begin with my niche. He then told me, "you love to bake and cook" Why not do one on baking, cooking, recipes, etc.. The thought then came to me, why not do a niche on greenhouses. We have a greenhouse business so that is what I did. Ask yourself the question. What do I like to do in my spare time or if I had spare time what would I like to do. What are your dreams, etc.. good luck..

awesome advise Monica, thank you!!

I honestly say just do whatever feels funnest. You should always enjoy what you are doing n_n

Wise words jade.....have fun ALWAYS and in EVERYTHING ;-)

http://onlinelabguy.com/category/niche-research

See if these articles help you to find one.

Thank you!

I think too many of us get overly concerned about our niche being in too competitive a market ... or too non-competitive. The best niche is the one you would love working on making successful ... no matter what the subject area. Good luck!

Thanks L7, I do want my first niche to be fun and interesting. I guess I'm just having trouble taking that first step because I'm not sure if there's a market.

Hi Chris,
I found that making a list of the possibilities and then brainstorming ideas for each one and how excited I got for each helped a lot. If you are still stuck try writing or at least starting to write an article for the one that you think you want to go with and see how it turns out. If it seems to flow and makes you want to write more, that's the one! If not, maybe skip it and try another, you can always come back. Remember you can have more than one, but to start out you really want to pick the one you are most passionate about and stick with it. Good luck!
Jeffry

Thanks Jeffry, I'll follow that plan and start throwing some ideas up and see what sticks. Does a niche necessarily need to be a physical product, or could it be something else such as a practice, routine or something people can learn?

What would you most enjoy learning, researching, and writing about? Is there anything you really enjoy doing? Think of one or two things. Then go to Amazon and search in your niche. You will be able to narrow it down and see what kind of things you might be able to sell. Start there and don't let the pressure overwhelm you.

the problem is that I actually have quite a few different interests, but the choices I've narrowed it down to involve music - supplies for bass guitar players - as I've been a musician for a big part of my life....and - please don't laugh...hair replacement solutions for people going through hair loss.
I love music and am fairly knowledgeable on the topic. but as a hair loss sufferer, and having several friends going through it, I have seen how it devastates people's self esteem and confidence.

I'm torn.

Then you have two really good ideas for your niche. There is absolutely no reason you can't do both, eventually. For now, which one do you feel more drawn to start working on? Hair loss or bass guitar supplies? Which one can wait? Why don't you research both and see which one may be more profitable for you? If you can get some income coming in from your first niche, you will be better able to start and concentrate on your second one.

That's great advice! I wasn't sure if marketing hair loss solutions would sound silly. But since I've got the premium membership, I could do a couple different sites. Thank you so much!
