You have FANTASTIC responses here; kindly let us know if you require additional assistance.

At checkout, select the third option, 'credits'; you can click on that tab. (One .com domain equals 32 credits.)

However, starting with a siterubix subdomain may be better until you are happy with your niche and name, as you cannot edit the URL of a premium domain name once purchased. And if you happen to have made a mistake.

You have some great responses here, please let us know if you still need more assistance.

Yes, I had some great responses that got me thru my fears of doing the wrong thing. I am now official and have my own domain name and have the draft content transferred over to my domain name.
THANK YOU, EVERYONE!!

fantastic result, you are on your way

Thank you Catherine!
Now concentrating on Logo…
You are all so encouraging!

Thank you Stacie!

you are most welcome

You could always ask us questions like you have done here :) Woohoo, congratulations!

Thank you! I do have one question. I have created my logo, downloaded it and uploaded it to my About Me page since that is all I have authored at this point. But, no matter what width I reduce or enlarge it to....it is still only showing half of the picture. Can't seem to be able to figure out how to fix that?

The more encouragement you get the more likely to succeed. Everything is here if you dont give up

What's your website URL, please?

PamperedPawsPalace.com
The logo is now removed…long story short, I’m just going to start over from scratch. I was following instructions, but somewhere along the way I did something wrong, so I’ll just start over. Appreciate you.

Okay! The whole idea is to see how the logo looks on your website.

You can design your logo very easily using the Canva app. It is better to go with a square.

As you use the GeneratePress theme, you can use a retina logo display to minimize your image without losing on quality or resolution.

Thank you! I do have a square logo. I found what I did wrong, so I just need to go back and load the correct one onto my page.

You have not done it yet?

Here is a screenshot

I use my name domain as an example.


https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/credits

That's where you check your cash credits for a free domain name.

Thank you so much, Brenda! I just wasn't going down far enough to get to the "Credits"....fearful of doing the wrong thing. Got it.

I am glad to see that you got it now.

Wow, your username is available... MeepMeep, congratulations :)

Thank you!!

Np, Janice :)

LOL! 😀

Have you purchased it yet?

No, but Im thinking about it. Should I go for it?

Yeah :) Personal branding or use your whole name lol

Okay, then, I will get it done today! It's been there for a while, but I kept putting it off; it's still in the cart. Yes, I am aware of branding my name. That is what Adam Enfroy does. I thought for sure it wouldn't be available. My full name was not available; someone else has the same name as mine. I thought, why not try my username, which is Cool!

You're welcome, Brenda :) And congratulations well in advance.

Also, I am so sorry someone has nicked your full name. Tell them to give it back or else...

Haha!🤣 You're funny. Yeah, I'd have to pay for it. Give a person an offer for my full name to get the domain.

You can get a broker to negotiate a deal for you. Of course, you'd also have to pay the broker, lol.

That too! My username is good enough; it's short and easy to remember. I bought it. Done!

That's superb, really happy for you.

First of all, you need to be absolutely certain that you have chosen a niche subject that you are going to stick with, because a domain name can't be changed.

So, if you are happy with that, then decide upon the name you want, and go to Websites at the top of the screen, and then click Site Domains.

If the name is available, put it in your cart and go to checkout.

Check the spelling carefully, you can't change any mistakes!

When you get to checkout, there are three options to pay.

Choose the third option, that says WA credits.

You will have been given 32 credits to cover the cost of the domain.

Thank you so much for your help, Diane!!

Kyle,
To be a bit more specific, while in my core training (the first 8 classes), before going to Premium, I followed the Class lessons and created my 'About Me', the outline, and the article...via AI and GPTChat. After critiquing, I Published. I have never been able to view it on my Hub.
So today I repeated the 'About Me' steps, hoping to be able to go live with my Brand. However, I'm still not able to view it on my Hub.
I did; however, receive from Google Site Health, a Status of 2 critical issues that I'm not understanding.
I'm attaching copies:

2 critical issues
Critical issues are items that may have a high impact on your sites performance or security, and resolving these issues should be prioritized.

#1
The REST API encountered an error
The REST API is one way that WordPress and other applications communicate with the server. For example, the block editor screen relies on the REST API to display and save your posts and pages.

When testing the REST API, an error was encountered:

REST API Endpoint: https://draft-472760.siterubix.com/wp-json/wp/v2/types/post?context=edit
REST API Response: (http_request_failed) cURL error 28: Connection timed out after 10001 milliseconds

#2
Your site could not complete a loopback request

Loopback requests are used to run scheduled events, and are also used by the built-in editors for themes and plugins to verify code stability.

The loopback request to your site failed, this means features relying on them are not currently working as expected.
Error: cURL error 28: Connection timed out after 10001 milliseconds (http_request_failed)

I would truly appreciate any advice on what I'm to do about this.
Thanks,
Janice

I now see my published article., but I'm still concerned about the critical issues above.

I did, but just haven't heard anything from them yet.

Never mind, I did get a response from them. All's well, thank you.
