Hi all,

Maybe if you need to create a multisite. Maybe subdomains can help you!

I'm not sure what the advantage to doing this would be? I've used WPMU and the cons outweigh the pros. You have unlimited hosting here so you can simply set them up as separate sites. Also, as backlinking is now a devalued technique, interlinking same-owner sites won't improve your rankings. In fact, it's likely to do the opposite, as Google uses this as a "spam" signal and has done so for a while now. :) Rich.

Has anyone received a Google Webmaster DNS Error when adding a domain you own on the Wealthy Affiliate Server? Googlebot did not crawl your URL because it couldn’t communicate

Hello Jvalicenti.....did you ever get this DNS problem sorted out???. the technical team say they can not help

Hi. Thanks for the like. How did you fix your DNS issue? I have the same problem..

Thanks, I ended up making a support ticket. My name servers are correct when transferring from Name Cheap and received all green check marks from http://www.whatsmydns.net/#NS/. Thanks again much appreciated.

anytime

I forgot to tell you it takes time to switch it over so wait a day then check again. If none of this helps I suggest you fill out a support ticket which can be found on the create a website page

The best suggestion I can come up with is to watch that video they have at the webmaster site they mention something about verifying your site through the dns.Also when you added your domain to the WA server did you make sure to change the dns when you did it? Primary-ns1.mywahosting.com
secondary-ns2.mywahosting.com also check out this website to make sure that your domain is set to WA hosting servers. Just go to this site http://www.whatsmydns.net/#NS/ type your url in the box and click the search button. If it is good then you'll see little green checkmarks next to the hosting site name if not then you need to change your hosting for the domain name and here's training on how to do that https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/wa-hosting-setting-up-your-domain-dns Hope this helps

Question was for original poster who is no longer active at WA.

My 4th article on street articles has been disapproved. I have fixed the errors by following the guidelines. But when previewing I'm told that Links in article body exceeds th

I know one time I had made a link and then deleted the link, However the period at the end of the sentence was still linked. Something to look at. And don't feel bad about it being rejected. We all have had that at one time or another for whatever reasons they my be.

Thanks feemo. I actually dispensed with the H3 tag creator and just moved on with my article using notepad to save on time. It's been published for quite a while now. I guess I might have been really looking at it with precision magnifying lenses and in my scrutiny I eventually thought I'd have to make a hundred or less words to avoid the submission error, instead of having a minimum of 100 words to be able to use another tag. In any case that problem is past me now but thank you feemo for your advise. You're great!

I have a similar problem. I submitted an article to Street Articles with 403 words and two links. The submission editor says I exceeded the maximum limit for the heading tag which is 1 tag. I resubmitted several times with same results. Another resubmit and it says there's a broken link. So, I go fix it and resubmit and the editor says I exceeded the limit for the heading tag again. Finally, I remove all the tags (the bold words on top of the paragraphs) and resubmit. The editor says I exceeded again.

What exactly are these heading tags? And oh! what is this icon that says "Apply H3 tag"? Is this the cause of my problem?

Kindly help, thanks!
Frank

The H3 icon is a heading tag creator. You hi-lite the words you want as a header and click on the h3 icon, and it automatically sets the attributes as a topic header, ie., bold, spacing, etc. Headings do carry some influence with Google. They are not game changers, but google recognizes the header content within an article.

As for you "exceeded header tag limit" problem. It is likely that you to not have a minimum of 100 words between header tags. You are allowed only 1 header tag per 100 words. So, if you use a header tag, you cannot use another one until 100 words later. Hope that helps you, Frank. Good luck. Let us know, if we can help more.

Very true from Sidekick. Don't worry, Jim. Usually Kyle let's you know in his notes what you need to fix. If there was a list of top 10 people who got their articles rejected, I think it would be me!
These are some of the things that I did:
1. I coped material that I did from other sites. A big no-no that can hurt you. I didn't know that. Not other person's material, from other people, but myself.
2. Too many links.
3. Material that wasn't relevant to my links to my website. Something I just corrected only 10 minutes ago!
4. Personal "religious" expressions.

So, Jim. Look on the bright side. You can learn from your mistakes! I did. That's the positive thing about here at WA, people will help you to learn from them. So, smile! And know that another person at WA has made mistakes, too!

I hope this helps you out.

Eric

Thanks Eric, much appreciated.

You can also put up to 2 links for a 400 word article.

Thanks for you input. I ended up deleting the article and reentering it according to the guidelines. It's pending now so I'll see what happens soon. Thanks again, Jim

I know this may sound nit-picky, but are you sure the link begins in the last 25%, words 303 to the end. I only say it as something to consider, since computers are literal. If not, add a couple of words somewhere prior to the link.

I have had that before I took all the links out and then put them back after I published, Your articles is still visible while waiting.

Where is the article visible while waiting and how are the links seen if put back after publishing? Also, wouldn't this require Street to moderate again?

Yes it would moderate again. so that is what I mean that it would still be out there but with no links, Then put your links in and wait again, for moderation. but for me that was the easiest way so at least I knew my article was live and shared.
