I have my reviews listed as pages and I wanted to add them to my blog roll, can that be done?
Going forward, you can create a post category called reviews. You can then add that category to your main menu. Write your new reviews as posts using that category. If your site is already indexed and ranking I would not delete pages. Just go forward.
For now, I'd keep it as is Kay, But if you haven't already done so, from now on every new review you write, make sure it's a post. That way it will all appear on your blog roll :)
Pages are static and don't move or change. It depends what the review is and whether you want it always available to your customer from your menu. Blogs will always move around with time and your category assignment. If you have a review that you think works well as a static page and a blog that needs to be categorized I would simply copy the review over and post it as a blog also. You may want to alter it some though, so google doesn't see it as duplicate material.

You might want to make "Reviews" a category and not a page, like Shawn Martin said. Then when you post, it goes into the blog roll, but you mark it off as a review on the sidebar. In that way, it's out front, but 10 posts down, if someone clicks on the category of "Reviews," they can find it. Hope this helps. The difference between pages and categories had me at first, too, but I get it now.
Not really. What you can do is make a reviews tab and use a drop down menu or convert them over to posts, which can be done but there is a proper way to do it.
How to get pages in your blogroll instead of just posts?

Seriously, Arkansas has a tax law and Amazon pulled the state off of there affiliate site. I can not even sign up for Amazon Affiliates... What other site does anyone recommend?
Sign up with LinkShare. Many of the major retailers affiliate through them. Walmart, Best Buy, Sony, Target, Microsoft, Kohl's, Apple, Nike, Macy's, and tens of thousands of other small and large companies.
Plus the majority of them have a much better commission payout plan than Amazon which frankly isn't that great. I wrote a blog about it a couple of months ago and yes, Arkansas is one of five states that do not participate.

Thank you for this question. I live in Minnesota and Amazon will not take affiliates from their either so now I know where else to look. Thanks to all.
I use a combination, some you can do direct, I am with commission junction, amazon am going to check out linkshare
Clickbank has a TON of high paying products. Also through linkshare you could affiliate with wal mart and other big corps. Tons of possibilities even without amazon.
Search with your niche for affiliate programs: in google "your niche + affiliate programs" You should find lots of opportunities that way.
Enter the products you want to promote into google follower by: + affiliate. You will probably find a more generous commission offer than you would have through amazon anyway:)

i can add a pic, but i want have text beside it... you know like ya'll do in your posts that look pretty... So how do you do that... links please
Are you asking about a caption with your photo? When you add media and upload your graphic, you can change the name of your graphic in the right hand column. There are also boxes there to put in a title or add a caption. Style is controlled by your theme, I don't think you need any plugins for that.
Leave your cursor planted in the content a few sentences down from the first sentence. In other words just leave it in the area you want your pick to be beside. Then go grab your "ad media button" and select photo, then click insert into post. It should appear right beside left or right or center of page, whichever one you might choose.
Now if you are talking about a photo beside your post itself to show up in a blog roll, you have to scroll way down when in edit mode and you will see a place where it says featured posts. You then pick a photo there and add it which will appear beside your post title.
There is a plug in for that does this. So let me know which you are talking about, inside the post with different photos, or in your excerpt. For this go to my website and the first thing you see is the photos tied to the different posts. www.downhillmoney.com
