Websites Tab Primary Menu: Drop-down Dashboard - Brief Setting Up Free Website and More!

Hey, I am Lula.

Under the Websites tab, primary menu (top), you can find many options from the drop-down dashboard menu.

First off is the Site Manager.

This is where all our websites are listed and the place where we log in to do work, for example, create content.

Notice there is Login, refresh, view, comments, feedback, move, and details.

Next off is Site Builder.

This is where we built our sites, on a free siterubix subdomain, a domain we own, or to register a domain.

For starters, you can choose a free domain.

For premiums and premium plus, you can choose any.

Next off is Site Domains.

This is where we find, register, and manage our domains.

You can input a keyword, and the system will search for available domains with that keyword.

Please note with the Wealthy Affiliate platform; domains can be purchased in dot coms/nets/orgs. The cost is $13.99 annually, privacy included.

Next in line is Site Content—the ultimate writing platform.

This is where you can create content with a word count, choose images (mountain button) and check grammar.

You can start a blank document or from a writing template.

Templates include Affiliate Disclosure, Hosting Review, Privacy policy, Keyword Rich content page, and About me template.

Then comes Site Comments, Site Feedback, and Site Support.

I am leaving Site Comments and Site Feedback till another day.

Site support is not an available service for Starter members.

However so, Premiums and Premium Plus members. They find the site support service to be very responsive. They are the tech folks who maintain our sites.

Setting Up Free Website:

Choose a free domain > Choose a name > Choose a Title, and by default, the Theme is GeneratePress > Build my siterubix subdomain website.

(Hold tight, we're building you something amazing)

Finally, Admin details (password omitted for security reasons and as this platform is a public forum).

For the next lessons, I will be using this siterubix subdomain for training and demonstration purposes.

Below is an example of a copy of a default WordPress application, where circled is the domain title, with a Hello World post, a Sample Page in the primary menu. Recent Posts and Comments in a couple of widgets in the sidebar. And website title again in the footer.

Admin details can be accessed by clicking the details button on any domain found within your Site Manager.

On the page, you see admin with a password (omitted), domain details, and SitePlus+, which consists of SiteSpeed, SiteSSL (HTTPS), and SiteProtect (Spam Blocker).

Please note as a starter; your SiteSpeed is OFF till you upgrade.

In Site Manager, you can access your sites, reset passwords and sometimes synchronize when having login issues.

Starters who decide to upgrade to Premium or Premium Plus can utilize the move feature found in Site Manager when they register their dot com domain to move from their siterubix subdomain to their dot com domain. An easy step, input the site moving to the final destination and click move; WA does the rest for you. The recommendation is to leave the input domain for up to one month to ensure redirects are adequately completed for the search engines.

I hope my training is beneficial. I wish you a terrific day.
