Am wondering if it's possible to take my site which is hosted by WA and find free hosting for it??
Like Marion said:
Free hosting can never be good.
It's either super slow, not safe or others.
I host some sites at WA and some at SiteGround.
Free hosting always comes with a price. There are many hosting companies that charge a small fee without compromise.

Thanks very much Marion. I'm liking what I see with DreamHost but was wondering how I'd go about "transferring" my site which is currently hosted my WA over to another such as DreamHost
I had issues with certain themes when hosting at WA.
Those issues disappeared when I changed hosting...
Probably it is because you cannot use some plugins. It’s up to you, but I like WA hosting so far. In fact I have another hosting as well for not Wordpress sites.

Hi guys I'm wondering if someone could tell me what css coding I need to edit to raise my title/subtitle (Classic Horror Movies - A tribute...) and also the page itself. I'm wa
Hi - on line 37 of style.css, change the margin-top value from 400px to something lower (e.g. try 100px).
Sounds about right, yes.
If that doesn't work, let us know.
Could be a theme related issue, too.
Hi there philemerson, thanks very much for that. I changed the margin-top from 400px to 100px but nothing has moved..?
Thanks very much for the help you guys! MsMoneyHoney, I'm not sure how to "clear cache". I've refreshed the page couple times but nothing. Thanks very much for that feedback. I'd love to display the whole pic but have decided to try raise the title and page almost to the top in order for it to be more easily viewed
Wow you're a genius MoritzS! Thanks so much! So strange that the refresh button didn't work but CTRL+F5 did! ...And there's the changes I made to the opacity yesterday too!! ...Very strange but VERY GRATEFUL! You're a magician! :-) :-)
Haha. :D
Pressing CTRL+F5 clears the cache (what MsMoneyHoney suggested).
Whenever you change something in the CSS or something with media, I recommend using this combination to make sure you see the changes.
Glad that it is working now!
Looking great.
Moritz
Ahhhh right! Yes I'll definitely be using that from now on!
So very grateful for that help...so effective and very kind!

It's only been 6 months but like everyone I guess, I'd like to know when it will finally happen..? When can I expect to see my first commission or sale? Im currently up to Coar
Hi jdeen: I agree with the 2 previous comments. Regarding Google Analytics - have you run your site through that and have you googled your own niche and seen where your site is listed - page 1,2,etc.If you are not listed fairly high, then maybe see what your competition is doing. The social media suggestions are also valid. Any way you can get your site "out there" is good. I'm sure other people far more qualified than I will be able to give you better advice but don't give up! I'm sure you will get there but if you have to change your niche, it won't be the end of the world. Just be honest with yourself and make sure you did everything you could with this one.
Thanks very much Xavant. I do appreciate that feedback. I have run my site through Google Analytics. So far, (after about 6mnths) I've received around 1,100 visitors. To me, that seems like quite a few but they just don't seem to be clicking on any links. When I Google my niche it's a LONG way from being on 1st/2nd page. I have to type the URL to see it come up as number 1. This is very sad. I may have to change links. What you've said about being honest with myself is so true. After the amount of work and energy I've put into my site, It's not even within the 1st 10 pages of Google..!! This is really disheartening. But at least it's an accurate and honest indication.
Hi your site trust is usually linked to the length of time it has been up and running so I wouldn't worry too much about that figure (10% per month). Your main indicator at this stage is how many visitors are you getting to the site through google analytics and is that being maintained or increasing slowly? More traffic equals higher chance of sales.
Thanks for the reply MHainsworth. Had over 1000 visitors last i checked Google Analytics about a month ago
Are you utilizing social media and forums to get your site promoted. If not your want to add your google plus account, twitter, and create a Facebook fan page. Also add a google calendar. Google take those things into account when they are ranking your site. I hope that helped you a little. Also try to add some youtube vids. If you make your own voice over' vids you get paid from youtube too.
Yes I am Merceadez, though not near as much as I could. I will create a separate fan page Face Book account I think. Thanks very much for replying.

I'm trying to create links from a drop down menu to specific sub headings which are on the same page. Thank you.
So you're trying to link to a post in a new post? Please clarify so I can try to help you
Thanks Gem Angel. I've created a drop down menu but don't know how to link from it to other pages. I cannot find a link option in the Dashboard-Appearance-Menu's page. It's hard to explain but how would I build links within a drop down menu..? Thanks for your time. Jamie.
Sorry for the dealy work has had my time consumed. I think I know what you are wanting now, Have created to samples for you. Menu ex1 image is how my menu was. I made a change to show what I think you are wanting to do that is shown in New Menu example2 image. Confirm for me if this is indeed what you are wanting?
Thank you so much for your time and effort GemAngel, but I've decided to leave this line of approach just for now. I'm very sorry if I've caused you any stress. Jamie

I agree, free hosting can't be reliable
