So back when I started my WA training, I decided to buy additional domains, specifically the .org and .net versions of my .com domain. Every time I go into my Site Manager, I s

Branden,
Good question, I always wondered what people would do with
all three domains - completely understand getting them to keep
the monopoly for domain names but unless you are going to use them what good are they :(
Susan

Either put some content on them, or set up redirects from them to the .com site. You can do that on-going or until those domains expire.

The .com sites get more attention.

Just like Labman said I was going to say change them to.com

Set them to forward to the .com domain that you have created a site on.

Is forwarding the same as redirecting? I read that Google frowns upon redirects.

Yes, it is a redirect but not precisely. Now the sites are doing nothing to help your site. Forwarding will at least get people to the site that has content.
Google won't penalize you for this.

​Not 5 minutes ago, I was on WP backend editing an article for publishing. I try to upload a picture and I get HTTP error. I refresh and get a blank page with 'Not Found'

Keep Trying

Happens all the time with one of my sites and yet the others are fine, all hosted at WA. It's something to do with one of the servers, seems to have more issues than the other

This happened to me also bt after 10 min I was,able to login

Anything to do with your website, always contact site support first. They’re the expert in this field.

Noted! If it happens again, which I don't doubt it will, I'll contact them immediately. Thanks!

Branden

This happened to me earlier; I waited a few minutes and it was back up.

Thanks, it took a bit but it's back up. This isn't the first or second time it's happened though. It's very bothersome. Thanks again.

Yes, it's happened to me before as well. I even contacted site support because I couldn't figure out what was going on, but before they could respond it was back up.😀

Lol. Hopefully it doesn't happen again, but if it does, I'll contact them immediately to see what's going on. Thanks again for responding.

Happened to me too tonight, but I contacted support and they worked their magic and in like 2 mins I received a reply. Talk about fast. I am now back in business. :)

Why when I try to log in to my site does it say not found?

I published a post so I could add a gif to it manually on Wordpress but I keep getting the same error. The gif size isn't over the max file size of 32MB (the gif is 17MB). Word

That's still a huge file, compress the image first - you can use any number of plugins for that or free online compression sites.

You always want to compress your images, because big image files like that will slow down your site speed big time.

Compression fixed the issue. Thanks!

You're welcome

If the error still persist, get site support to help. They have done once for me.

Appreciate the help, I got the issue fixed with compression.

Hey Brandon,

Here's video training to help you with this: Hope you find this helpful.

Thanks for your help!

You're very welcome!

And, Leo it right... and, I was reading your MB as KB.

Many online email accounts used to refuse any attachment 10 MB and over. Keeping that in mind... yeah, 17 MB is still way too big.

Most likely the resolution of the image is too big

Resize it offline and upload it again using a different file name

But you should know that huge files/images like that will slow down your site Dramatically!

Is there a WA course/classroom that goes over how to set up comparison shopping/review sites? Or have I not gotten to it in the training yet? Thanks for the help.

I am afraid we don't have that. We have to write review but you can always customized what you have learned here towards achieving that kind of site. Try to search for a theme that allow you to create a comparison site.

Scroll down a little and Erin did a good post about comparison reviews just yesterday.
