Hello there Site Support:
This is an inquiry as to the proper steps to take when leaving WA perhaps for a time or permanently.
Questions:
1. What happens to the websit
Your website will be held for 60 days, so if your intending to be away longer you might want to move it to another hoster, or at least make a copy.
You need to cancel your automatic subscription renewal, so that the money isn't taken out of your bank account.
This question has been asked to the Community and not to SiteSupport.
When you leave WA, you will lose access to your account and your websites will go offline.
A backup will be kept for up to 60 days, should you return.
The correct steps to take are to backup your websites, fully, and to migrate them to another web host, if you want them to remain online.
SiteRubix subdomain’s cannot be transferred to another host, as they belong to WA, but the website content belongs to you.

My blog post 'Are We Alone In The Universe' seems inaccessible when I try to search it in google without logging in to Wealthy Affiliate. The rest of the blog posts on my blog
Wealthy Affiliate does not want duplicate content any more than you'd want it on your own website. If you want to post the same article on Facebook then it would be a good idea to delete it from your WA blog.
And if you want to post it on your own website then just use an introductory paragraph on Facebook which links to the article on your site.
Sometimes a post at WA is "ghosted" because it doesn't follow WA guidelines. This means that only the original poster can see it.
Please read "About blogging at WA" at the foot of the window where you write your blog posts and the full rules at Spam is a NO NO!
If I created a WA blog and posted this blog in facebook, is this a violation of any WA rules?
Joe
Please read the rules I linked to above, in particular, #2 and #3.
2. No copied content allowed to be posted here at Wealthy Affiliate. This content will be immediately removed and you will lose posting privileges.
3. Do not copy content from WA and post it somewhere else on the Internet. This includes copying your own blog content and putting it on your website.
No duplicate content is permitted. You could lose your posting privileges.
Could you give me a yes or no answer? If I posted any of my Wealthy Affiliate blog on the internet, specifically Facebook, will I be breaking a Wealthy Affiliate rule?
If I am breaking a rule, which rule will I be breaking?
Thanks Marion.
Joe
Please read my answer above.
YES, IT IS AGAINST THE RULES!
NO DUPLICATE CONTENT!
Rule #3 states "Do not copy content from WA and post it somewhere else on the Internet. This includes copying your own blog content and putting it on your website."
Below is an article posted by Kyle in Facebook.

Now, here is a link to the same article within WA. Wealthy Affiliate Has Gone Mobile! Is Kyle spamming?
Joe
Are you joking? Kyle's Facebook post is a link to the actual post at WA. It's not duplicate content.
I'm not interested in having an argument here, Joe. So no matter what you reply to this I'm not going to respond.
Sorry to see you think my objective is an argument. I was showing examples of what I understand your reasoning to be.
You do not need to respond to this.

Now, I was browsing and looking over my many blogs here at WA and I had a curious question pop into mind.
What good will these blogs be COLLECTIVELY if any now or long term?
Google indexes the content on WA. If people come to a blog that you have written and have not come via another member's link, then your affiliate link is assigned and they will be your referral if they join WA.
No, do not take content from WA and republish it.
Wa blogs what good are they now or long term?

Started this morning, when I open notification emails from WA announcing new followers, I notice that it says 'Follow Me' so I click that link and then a prompt pops up asking
Hey Joe,
Might be a good idea to let SiteSupport: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/websites/support know of this issues as they are always working to improve the WA platform and may have inadvertently added a wrong line of script that caused this.
1.) Yes
2.) Not Listed
3.) Other
4.) fill in the textbox with relevant information for SiteSupport
5.) click on the Ask Question button.
Do let them know the device and browser you were using and an approximate time of the day that you experienced this. As this is vital information for their troubleshooting.
Hope you find this helpful.
Hi Trish!
Thanks for the feedback! I do communicate with Site Support on a regular basis and I will definitely shoot them the same inquiry about the issue.
I am getting a lot of buzz from within my local area about issues with online stuff and possibly malwares and viruses spreading.
Thanks again. How are you doing these days.
Be safe. Be healthy!
Joe
Am keeping busy and I've stopped listening to the news weeks ago.
Depression is never a good thing, and that's all the news is providing is food for depression.
Always good to let SiteSupport know of any WA site issues you are having, for sure.
You be safe, healthy and happy too Joe. :-)

Just finished a blog in WA and posted it in my fb group. It has my personal WA account showing including my other posts. How can I post it minus my WA profile showing?
h
It would seem to me, that everything about your blog is available. This includes your profile and other posts. However, I think I would want my profile and other posts to show. This would allow the reader more opportunity to find out more about me and my other posts. Which could lead to more referrals. I think the only way to post your blog without your profile. Would be to post it separately on your website, not in WA. To me it makes more sense to post it in WA, which should keep the reader in WA more. Giving you more of a chance to get a referral.
