Authoring & Writing Content
Updated

I have searched and read a few other posts but I wanted to get the opinion of some of my network.

I don't have a lot of time to write out my content due to my two jobs an

I understand wanting to use that time for a draft, which would be fine, but don't just dictate and post without proofreading it and perhaps running it through Grammarly. Most people do not speak in sentences, sometimes don't conjugate properly, etc. It wouldn't be prudent to just post.

Thanks. Those are my thoughts exactly. I don’t even post my typed works without proofreading or running through grammarly lol

Sounds like a good use of your time. Try it. I know I can dictate a recording on my iPhone.

What app do you use on your iPhone? That’s what I e been trying to figure out..maybe there is something I can use to draft my thoughts as I’m driving

It's not an app but just one of apple's features. It's Voice Memo and it was in my Extra folder. I have many recordings of my own thoughts as well as recordings of discussion with other people.

I think that is a fantastic idea. I am visually impaired and often use it to make things easier when I'm having a rough day.

Thanks! What software or apps do you use?

I have a Mac and I just use the dictation feature that is built into the OS.

In my WP admin console I can see pics of others but my profile image doesn’t show up. I went to my profile and it says add my image in Gravatar but it is already there

Contact site support and see what they can do to help you all out.

Funny you should say about this, but I have been having the same problem. I have updated my gravitar on Wordpress but it doesn't show up. I will try and add the user again and see if I can sort the photo out.

Not got a clue.

Is your WordPress contact email listed/authorized in Gravatar?

Yep when I go to sign in it shows the same email and my image is there on Gravatar

Hi all!

My site is still brand new and not a lot of my content is getting indexed yet. I found a great affiliate program that I would like to post about but I also don't

Some great answers here, like Debs66 says and I agree with it, give it a go nothing to lose

I think you should wait. I was going through Kyle's training and he said to apply for to be an affiliate so I chose Google Adsense and I was turned down because I didn't have enough traffic. My site was just in the beginning phase.

I would do what Loes said to do. Build your content first and then add your links because then your visitors will have something to go on so they will buy from you. I hope this helps you out.

Thanks everyone! I am a bit conflicted with this one because the next post that I want to write is going to be focused a bit on the site that I want to post the affiliate link for. I want to add it but I didn't want to start this early mentioning that I have affiliate links on my site.

Give it a try why not I obviously do not know how far you are at neither. So if you feel your time is right then go ahead and if they accepted you then why not. We all work differently and some pick up things quicker. I do not want to hold you back and a lot of what I did in the past was all trial and error. I have to say what took somebody a month may have taken me two so I cannot judge where you are at right now. If you feel you are ready then you go girl is all I can add to this :)

Thank you so much! Great advice from everyone

Hi,
yes I sort of had to back track on my comment because I obviously do not know how far you are in your website. I wouldn't want to stop you moving forward. Like I said You could be so much further forward than I even realise.

I believe you have got this anyways so you keep going and the best thing is if we do mess up we have site support and if your not accepted for affiliate programmes in the future you will be accepted again.

So all in all we have no room to fail. We all have fabulous support. So you go ahead and do what you feel you need to. If you get really stuck then you can PM any of us and we will all help.

Best wishes for your future and fabulous success.

Hi,
I would go with what Loes says you first need some content on your website to start promoting some other links. You can be rejected by the better ones. Build out some content.
~Debs :)

I started adding links right away. Not sure I should have, but I jumped right in.

Yes, I think it would be better to wait, Cris. So add a bit more content and then start adding affiliate links. If your site is brand new, you won't get many visitors yet and waiting a bit will increase your chances to get ranked and found.

I would say, at least 10 posts, they can reject your application if they find that your website has to little content
