Or can I? I am writing a post that I want to include the exact meaning of a word from dictionary.com. Can this be done? Are there guidelines that need to be followed? Can anyon

Copy/pasting small bits of content for quotes isn't an issue. In fact, the "duplicate content" penalty usually only applies if you have extensive amounts of copied content without links to the original. A few lines with a link to the source won't hurt your site.

I use italics, or there's even quote button within the WP dashboard. Sometimes I'll make the text grey to show that it's different from the other content. I link to the source if it's a unique person who wrote the content, to give them credit for their ideas. For something like dictionary.com, I wouldn't bother with linking because linking to the source doesn't provide much value to the reader.

However, SiteContent might prevent you from posting any kind of duplicate content, so you may have to go into the actual WP dashboard to post quoted content. If that's the case, you can log in through SiteManager here: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/websites

It's good to get familiar with the regular WP dashboard as well, so you can see the full functionality of the Wordpress editor and take your content to the next level!

Thanks for the extra very helpful information :)

I would take a snapshot and upload it as an image. That's not the only way but it's the method I prefer.

Thanks Steve I wouldn't have thought of doing it that way :)

I have just gone into siterubix site manager where I have numerous domain names some through siterubix and some not. I've just noticed that one of my domains has yes above gool

With brand new websites, it can take several days, or even a week or more to have a new post indexed. That's normal!

Also, if your entire site is not even indexed yet, publishing and sharing on social media are two very easy ways to get google to notice your website. Just keep at it, and eventually they'll notice you. Oh, and installing Google Analytics + Search Console (formerly Webmaster tools) can really help as well! Kyle will show you those in the lessons, so stay tuned.

When you have time, here's a great webinar by Jay about what to do after publishing to get Google to index and actually rank your page It's good to have a routine for what to do after publishing so you don't just leave and "hope" that someone sees it. You have to do at least a little promoting!

Thanks Nathaniell I'll have a look at the link you supplies :)

Here is information on getting the Google bots to crawl and setting up a sitemap Debbie! https://blog.kissmetrics.com/get-google-to-index/

Thanks Michael I'll have a look at that.
