I have an auto-responder so at worst I can set up an optin page, just interested to hear what others do :-)

If you have an autoresponder like GetResponse, they have an RSS feature that allows you to create a newsletter with articles that have been posted on your website. I do that for a couple of my sites.

I also have newsletters where I put niche content as well was point to some articles within my site and affiliate offers related to my niche as well.

You could also create your own group in social media and notify them there.

Or notify people in other groups that have similar interests and if you are allowed to.

Hope that helps!

Has anyone got a favorite (simple!) way to notify people about your latest blog post please?

I signed up to WA a while ago but my blog is already hosted elsewhere. Are there advantages / disadvantages to moving it to be hosted with WA, and if so, how can the move be do

Hello Joy

Welcome back to Wealthy Affiliate. The hosting here is WordPress hosting and it is lightning fast. Where is your blog currently hosted? WA has the fastest hosting I have come across.

The advantages of having your website hosted here on WA include the lightning fast speeds and the site support here is amazing. If you have any questions or issues with your website help is just a click away.

Site support usually responds within an hour or less in most cases and can help you solve any issues you have with your website. You also have the amazing community here to help you with anything to do with your blog and the WA platform.

As for your question about the editor I'm like you and not a fan of the block editor. There is a free plugin that allows you to use the classic editor on WordPress which is quick and easy to install. I'm happy to help you further with this if you need me to.

Another thing worth mentioning is you get a free SSL certificate, daily backups of your website and malware protection included for free with all your websites that you host on WA. I hope this helps you and answers your question.

Good luck and I hope you get things sorted out. Let me know if you have any other questions or if you need any further help. All the best to your success.

Regards

Timothy

Thanks Timothy, my WordPress blog is currently hosted with DreamHost and it's coming up for renewal soon. There's not much price difference, so I need to decide whether to move it to WA or pay the renewal at DHost for a quiet life!

The only remaining question, I guess, is how do I move it across and get everything working? I have my main email on the same domain and don't want to lose anything :-)

Any guidance you can provide, much appreciated, please.

Best wishes,

Joy

Hello Joy

You're very welcome. As I said speeds here a lightning fast and there are the other benefits I mentioned of having your website here.

As for moving it is quite easy and can be done through WA site manager. You should be able to keep your email as well. I have not moved a website to WA myself but it s quite an easy process.

There are articles here on WA that explain the process step by step and Kyle can also help you if you need it. I'll have a look for an article for you.

I hope this helps you. Let me know if you have any other questions or need any further help. All the best to your success.

Thanks Timothy - in the end support did it for me, which was great :-) Just waiting for DNS propagation 24-72 hrs.

I've found that one of my favorite plugins "Add to Any" is banned at WA. This allowed me to share to several social networks so I'm looking for a recommended replacement.

Thanks for your encouragement,

Joy

Hello Joy

You're welcome. It's great to hear site support helped you and I'm glad it went well. As for plugins there are some plugins that are banned on WA but there are 1000s of plugins that work.

Kyle recently posted a blog post on his WA blog about the plugin restrictions at Wealthy Affiliate which you might find helpful.

Here it is I don't use any social plugins on my website like you mentioned but there are members here that do and would be happy to help you with this.

I can help you with WordPress, SEO plugins and page builders if you ever need it as I have used them a lot. Let me know if you ever need a hand or if you have any questions. I will be more than happy to help you out.

I hope this helps you and I wish you all the best with your website and your online journey. All the best to your success.

Regards

Timothy

Thanks. I received a suggestion for an excellent social plugin.

The transfer looks to have gone well - just letting it all settle now. I'll be in touch when I get to the next stage!

Hello Joy

You're welcome and that's great news. I look forward to hearing about your progress and seeing your success. All the best to your success.
