Heads Up: Some Changes at Commission Junction

Fake Subscribers?

I just had a rather interesting experience with one of my websites.I have it set up, so I get notified when anyone subscribes. Today I got 2 emails back to bac. Normally this would be delightful. Today, these emails did not quite sit right. As you can see, the domains of email addresses that subscribed are almost identical, and certainly not from any legit domain I am aware of. So, I went into the site and checked them out. You can find your subscribers in Users. You can sort the complete list

To Newsletter or Not to Newsletter.

So on my WAH site, I give tips and advice on WAH gigs, while promoting WA. :lately I have been posting various jobs that don't work for me but might work for somebody on Facebook. The few days, I have been considering creating either a JOBS page or a newsletter to send to subscribers via email.I don't want to clutter anybody's inbox, but which do you think might be more effective.?FYI, I am already working on 2 sites, prepping a third and offering my services as a freelancer all around ImproveM

Little Side Gig Launch

OK WAFam, here we go.I mentioned before that an author I did a few reviews for told me I should charge for it. Well, I have added an order form to my Gig That site to do just that. I made it at jotforms, if you’re interested 😊.I do content creation, reviews, editing & website assessment to look for ways to improve and optimize the site (using my WA Training!)It is located under the Services I Offer menu on the site. I have never been a good salesperson because I hate taking

Keywords & Content

I have mentioned the importance of keywords in my website in a few posts. Here, I want to explore them a little deeper and help any new people understand why they are important but should not be the sole focus of your content. In the Wealthy Affiliate Online Entrepreneur Certification (OEC) training, Kyle explores how finding keywords relevant to your chose niche can be used to build content. Keywords or keyword phrases are the terms entered into search engines. To be found by users, you have

I'm Certified! And More News.

I have completed the OEC training so I am now officially Certified! I took about 2 minutes for confetti and went over to finish Bootcamp.My newly-graduated son had his 18th birthday yesterday. He hung out with his oldest brother and some friends at Main Event, a local arcade/pool/laser tag facility. It's one of his favorite places & they have gluten-free grub so he doesn't leave hungry. I started a new site over the weekend, bought the domain yesterday and just now I saw the email that gets

Full Speed Ahead

I have been busy.I bought a second domain for my gaming site. I have not started working on it yet, but it is mine. I started back on my herbal education. I am very excited about this because holistic, natural healing is at the top of my My Lifetime Passions. On the back of this, I started working on my herbal site. (See cover image). I don't own the domain yet, but it is in my cart :).I'm starting a new job by end of June that will pay me every two weeks as opposed to every month like previous

Make It Count!

Today has been a pivotal day in my life and my son’s. He is a high school senior, or I should say he was. He graduated on the 1st and is now planning his future. For me, I managed to get my first commission from WA. It was less than 20 bucks, but I was excited to have that email telling me I had been paid. I now have 2 referrals and it seems neither of them are doing much right now. I am keeping tabs on them, however, so we shall see what happens. I have gained a fan in an indie author I

WA Rank Sub 5k!

Just last week, I was aiming for sub 10k and got it. This week I log in to find my next goal of sub 5k is shattered. I am now ranked 2850. I don't know what I did to get a 4k jump (was at just over 6k) but I'll keep doing it. Next goal is 500. It has been an eventful month and some. Cannot wait to see what awaits. Giggin on
