Hi WA Friends!

Do you know any online tool that can tell me something about website traffic.

I don't own this website so I can't use Google Analytics...

Any s

Thank you ! I will take a look now.
Greg

You're trying to look at other people's traffic? semrush, Moz, Ahrefs, Spyfu are all options.

Thanks Nathaniell. I work for company now that don't have acces to their website and theywant me to do something for them. I have partly access, the guy who created this website is gone. He instaled a Visual Compser plugin which gives you only possibility to add posts/pages.

Hi, Greg an excellent question, and I see Bert has given good info. I do wonder about the web-confs, though. I hope you find the right medium and tell us your experience.
Success to you.

Hello,

Here you already have Alexa rank checker that tells already something about the traffic to a site...
The webconfs site is full of tools to check things...

I want to work on wordpress website owned by company that I joined recently.

They don't have access to this website. Guy who created this site quit some time ago and didn

If the company owns the website, they should have hosting billing details. they can retrieve login info and change it through the hosting support system. I've lost my login details a few times in years past and was always able to get back in with enough "proof" that I was the owner of the account.

Hi Greg,
that sounds bad. But do you know the url? I tried to search some solution online and I think there are at least 2 possible setup

Setup 1: Your company host their own website
- Is there any IT support? if there is, they should be able to find out which IP that leads to which server host the site.
- You can ask them to search or help on how to reset the password so that you can get into 'wp-access' page.
> http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-reset-a-wordpress-password-from-phpmyadmin/
> http://codex.wordpress.org/Resetting_Your_Password#Through_FTP

Assumption:
- there is an IT support that manage the server in the company
- they have login access to the server. so that they can find out where the actual site located and check the information in the server

Setup 2: another provider (e.g.: godaddy, yahoo, etc) host the website
- this will be at the mercy of the hosting company. you might want to email the provider and explain the situation. they might able to login to the account to change the email registered to the account.
- how to find out who host the site? check this link http://www.whoishostingthis.com/

that's what I can think of right now. hope it can show you a direction on where to go.

hope that helps

If the company doesn't have access to the site and the person that created is gone and no one can contact him it may not be a way to access the site. The only other way that you would be able to access this site is if someone provided you admin access to the cpanel or server that it is sitting on and you would have to go into the database to find or change the password that way.

Can I claim website ownership ?

I've started working for a new company recently. I would like to work on their online presence,

I still don't have full access to their website, they are using 'visual co

You need to have access to the website. Please see the response on the other question you asked. Without login details, you won't be able to make changes unless you hire a hacker lol

Thanks Nathaniell! How was Vegas this year? :)

Awesome! Gonna write a post about it tomorrow :)

If you only have access to add content then you can't mess up the site.

Thank you Marion!

NO you can't

Luckily!!!

You have to wait on access from them....

Grtz,
Bert

Hi WA Friends!

I've a new job and one of my duties here is internet marketing ( so maybe it's kind of my WA success story, cause I've learned most of the stuff related to

Hi Greg, you are in good hands with MarionBlack!
Thank you for your question.
Linda

Thank you Linda!

Thank you Marion,
I've just cheked out your video about Full Backup With a Plugin.
My question is: are all the steps necessary?
Can you just activate the plugin and download the backup to your computer?
Thanks,
Greg

Haha, just send him over to you Marion:))

To be safe and secure do the lot. Backup with Export, backup with the plugin and backup with FTP. If you want to be secure don't take shortcuts. A few extra minutes is worth the time.

Thank you Marion!

She has this covered

Thank you Loes!

In my opinion, there are 2 ways you can back up your site.

1- Install a backup plugin on your site and before you make any changes on your site, make sure to back it up first so that if something goes wrong you can restore your site with that backup.

2- Build a siterubix site as a test site. Before you do anything or make any changes on your site for instance changing theme, install plugins ect , do that on siterubix first to see how it works.

Hope this helps =)

Hi Juneyo,

I'm referring to your option #1.

When you use that backup plugin --- How do you restore your site when the cpanel / admin is not accessible?

Tonight, after I updated/upgraded my theme, my site's cpanel is not accessible. It shows fatal error message too.

Hi joy777,

You can use FTP for that. That was how I restored everything on my site after I moved out from WA to another hosting.

Thank you Juneyo.
Help me understand the FTP thing.
It's basically a free software that I can use if I want to use my backup file to restore my site?

Yes, that's correct.

Thanks :)

Hi,

I am a BlueHost user. When I missed up I just call the support to roll back my site.

Tonight after I updated my site's theme --- only the header appeared and there's a fatal error message. Then I called the Bluehost support and I asked him if he could roll back. Then he rolled back to yesterday's.

With Wordpress I usually missed up when I do update or upgrade. But thankfully Bluehost support is very helpful.

I don't do backup stuff when I do updating --- because I hate FTP.

Thank you :) I will try to find out who is our hosting provider.
