I was going to make another website. I already have Amazon on a site. Do I have to get another Amazon account for another site?

That's right, I just created my Amazon Associates account the other day and they tell you, that only one is authorized. They will shut you down if they find you have more than one. It's in the long rules and stuff they tell you where you have to check the box that says, you agree to terms.

Nope. You need just one account. If you like to track your data then you may need to create different ID for the new website.

Right on the money!

I don't think so because when I applied it they asked me how many sites I have and filled them in . Now I use it in both of them.

If a person has 5 sites for example and they are all linked together just like Google plus reciprocating links. Does this hurt or help the SEO of every one of those 5 sites?

I was told just keep adding content and the links will come and they are all the best

Thanks Maxiam59 Just was curious.....a lot of linking with G+ , ebay with facebook, all the social interlinking etc.....just was wondering about the sites a person creates and maybe that would be good too? I guess it really isn't, or doesn't matter too much? Good to know , Thanks again

You are better off keeping the linking on one site with an occasional link to others. Private link networks like you describe won't really boost your rankings. Google got wise to them a while back and devalued them.

Thanks Labman...just got thinking, if it works with G+ then maybe it would work with other sites. Good to know that info and what is going on with links. So instead of creating another site, have a page to link to instead. Thanks again!

G+ is a social network so the rules are different.

Thanks!

Tried everything, changing themes, tiny mce advanced, tiny mce, ultimate tiny mce, WP edit....nothing works so I can have a basic font size and type feature in my WP editor lik

yes you can alter what font/size/weight you choose by going in to the css and styling it.. you need to find where the font is set in the style.css sheet and set it there..

Sounds like a person would have to do some digging. I don't know where the style.css is. and I don't know how to set it. Maybe I have to spend another hour or two figuring that out. Sorry....I just wasted a good Sat night here......decided to delete my site and start over. I think there is a glitch because people say advanced tinymce should work ok. Probably easy to get to the style.css if you know how to get there. Sounds like the way to install google fonts. but I want the easy nice way like all the normal non WP editors. Just one you can click while your writing and see how it looks on the fly instead of having to install each font that you don't even know that you would like after a person starts to design thier site. Thanks anyway. I'll see what works out here

you can get to the style sheet through appearance > editor... alternatively you can install a plugin custom css and it will allow you to input code there.. once that is installed you can make tweaks there

Thanks so much for your help! That is great to know! I saw one of Jays videos that had a way to install google fonts, but I forgot how, anyway I could try your way and see what I can come up with.

I have been looking for a basic feature found in all word processors, adjusting font size and type, and color. My theme does not have that basic feature. I installed ultimate ti

it is more impoirtant for the security of your site that you update it. Not updating it leaves you wide open to hackers, who can delete you blog, post for oyu, lock you out of your own blog and as a worse case scenario mess up your data base so that you can never use a backup to reverse things.
You may well think that no one is ever hacked and its just scare mongering but the number is an awfully lot higher thns you think so always use the latest WP
However that does leave you with those annoying problems which means you have to live with it ot buy a premium theme

Thanks! I was just frustrated I cant do a simple font size or font style on my editor. Seems so basic?!

I understand perfectly

On edit menu- it lists-pages-posts-links-catagories etc. Well on the "page" section it should say "history" "view all" " "search" just like it does with the posts, links, and ca

Hi Keith, it sounds like you are learning well. I'll bet that you're a hands on, get em dirty kinda guy like me. You might try building 2 free sites at once, one for real & one to try new things on, just a suggestion.

Hi Jon! Thanks for the reply!...yes it is a practice site, so I should not spend too much time on it. I tried everything, I guess it is like a puzzle and I like to figure out what is going on maybe just for curiosity sake.
Yes....one good thing is that I know all about menus! It's probably some little glitch? I don't know any coding...so I'm not going to open a Pandoras box.

Hey Keith, kinda thought so. You might wait a day or 2 to delete it though. There have been many odd online glitches all week. WP is also having some hacker troubles or so I've read, just a thought anyway. Good Luck Keith. J

Hi Jon, Thanks for the advice. I'll let it alone for now and start a new domain. If my new ones have trouble I'll have to get help. I want to get something done. I'm wasting too much time with the starter site. Thanks for trying to help me!

I know I've had a couple of minor problems myself, and if I don't find the answer here I usually go to WP. I've tried 4 different themes myself. My fave is the 2014, it's quick, simple & mobile compatible. Wed. I went to the public library to look at my site on a different comp. & was even more impressed with that theme. Jon

Hi Jon! Thanks for keeping on track with me. I did have to go back and fiddle with my site some more.I'm a glutton for punishment or just have to solve a mystery...or both?! Anyway...I did delete my site, then I reinstalled under the same domain name. This is the second time I did this. When I first viewed the menu edit. The options to add pages showed up!!! hooray! I went and trashed my sample page. Guess what? Menu edit pages became blank again?! So I un trashed my sample page and it shows now. I can add pages to the menu. So in retrospect, when I had no pages the menu edit item for pages shows "no items" which is normal, but it relies on the sample page as a shoe in to get other pages to show. So along with the sample page I have about 7 other pages and it works( knock on wood) maybe I will change the title of the sample page and keep it there to make sure.
Thanks for following me on this issue! Maybe this will help somebody else who has this same problem? Thanks again!

I tried 2014, 2013 I kinda like that 2010 one too, it is very simple. That is what I want. I saw one of Jay's videos and he liked "Expound" for a free theme. I like it too and the text in the header prints right over the header picture so no white space around the type. I figure or hope this is common enough that all the bugs are worked out.? I tried the plugin"page builder" and like it! It can make a couple coloums when the template is full width and you can drop in widjet boxes in the page. If I remember right it is responsive for tablets? It does have two menus too! I just have to focus on my writing. Have so much more writing to do! I pretty much have my shell done and have to go back and write.
Thanks for following up on me.

Hey Keith, Oh man that's great news. One things for sure you are learning how to build a website. Sounds like a good template choice.
Well cool, happy writing then. Looking at your last 2 comments, I don't think writing is a problem for you Keith. I'm glad I was able to help, if nothing else in support to help ya stay positive. Keep in touch brother, PM me if you need. Jon

Thanks so much for your help Jon! You help me to keep going,

Just treating you like I want to be treated Keith. I was raised to pay-it-forward, be compassionate & neighborly. You're welcome neighbor. J

In the list you have to hover over or click on them for them to give u options. If this is not happening I would try to reload your theme, if that does not correct the problem put in a support ticket.

Thanks dynamite8 for your reply. I though I would try reinstalling my domain name again one more time. It works know, but I have to keep at least one page at all times otherwise it gets stuck on "no items" under pages under menu edit.

I know within the menu box, it has "most recent" or "all" tabs. Did you check to see if your pages are under the "all"

No...there is no "all" theres nothing there? just blank except the words"no pages added" ? Thanks for your response, but no that isn't it. maybe I should get a support ticket?

I sure would! They are very responsive.

I honestly don't know. If it were me, I'd file a support ticket. Support Dept. helps a LOT of people with website issues.

Thanks Carla....Yes maybe I should....I delved deep into WP help and it gets into editing a php file? and I know just enough to mess it up. Maybe hopefully it is a simple problem. It was my first site and I did a lot of messing with it to see how to do things and learn. I changed themes a bunch of times, maybe that's it. No big loss, I just made sort of a shell with not much content for my learning how to navigate and create a site. Maybe I should ditch it and get another domain name.Thanks again for your response.
