Hey it's great to be here, I love the atmosphere here and I especially love the fact that I'm surrounded by so many positive and like minded people.
I've been making a full time income online since 2005. Most of that behind the scenes, I'm primarily an affiliate marketer, but I also market locally and the work I do for my clients is - web design, SEO, video production, logo creation, graphics stuff like that.
I've also been involved with radio as an on air personality, producer, writer and recording engineer.
Now it's time to jump out front.
I'm here to share what I know and help when ever I can. And I'm also here to learn from all you wonderful people.
If I can just share one thing, remember this is a marathon not a sprint, things take time but if you stay focused and keep taking one positive step towards your goals each day then you WILL succeed.
Before you head out and check out everything here - make sure to follow me so I can follow you back and this way I can network with you personally.
And above all make sure you're having FUN!!! Because if you're not having fun doing what you're doing then what's the point of doing it.
I believe in you!!

leo. I like the video. went a bit fast for me. so I will have to watch it more than once for sure. Question: you are leading them to kettlebells plural, which is awesome and will help me a lot with one of my concerns. but if I am sending to one product, say a particular eye cream made by brand philosophy how would I do it differently?

so, I followed all the steps in the video. Made perfect sense after my second viewing....the link actually tried to load this time, didn't go straight to blank page, so something is trying to connect you know, buy still says after several seconds of the little blue circle, page is unable to load, and on my actual site says 404 page isn't there, something like that....any ideas

Dear Leoemery!
I'm sure, your video is wonderful. It's my fault, I still could not understand fluent English easily because this isn't my mother tongue and I had not practiced enough. Besides, I hear not very well. That's why I would like videos here at WA to have this feature - subtitles.
So, if it's possible, set them, please.
Anyway, I'm very glad to comunicate with such interesting people like you. When I have developed my ability, I shall study and rehearcel all the videos that I consider very, very helpful.

I can't add them to the ones I've already done but If I do any videos in the future I can add subtitles.
As for the WA I'm not sure if they will have this feature. You can always PM Kyle and ask him

Hey Leo, check this out. I'm planning to do something similar to what you do. Sure, I'm at the start line of the marathon, but basically I'm planning to provide Web design, digital marketing, and, content creation, and social media management primarily to the local market. Besides working on my wife's Yoga website. It'll be nice to have you as a consultant on that.

Hello leoemery, yout video on themes was very enlightening, and opened my eyes to what I have to be concern with on building a website.
On the following matter I need your assistance, please:
I went into Site Ruxix to view my website. When I logged in I accessed my dashboard and clicked 'visit site' which brought me to my 'About Me' page. After I clicked on my 'About Me' my website popped up. BUT..the problem is about the full size shaded image of me positioned immediately above that page. It shouldn't be there and try as I might I was unable to remove it. I hope this is not as complicated to understand as it appears, but I tried to make it as clear as possible.
Please advise if there's any problem with my web site set-up and how to move my full size image from the top of this page. I was told that perhaps it has something to do with my theme.
You thoughts in this is very much appreciated.

This is theme related - I have no idea how to remove the image because I don't know what theme you are using. I'm away for the week so my schedule for being in the WA is all over the place so I recommend you contact the theme owner.
Or do a search in Google about this - it sounds like it's something others who have this theme may have had troubles with. Or even do a search on YouTube you may find a video tutorial there.

Leo, so glad you decided to follow me, I could use a healthy dose of your expertise. Can I ask a lot of stupid questions? Like where can I see the theme I have chosen and how do put my content onto this theme. Should I first take some wordpress lessons in order to get some of these answers?

Follow the training it will show you how to add content and as for the theme go to Appearnce in your wrodpress dashboard, then click on themes there you can see your active theme.

Hi..very nice to meet you. I just watched a short video you did about editing permalinks and commented on it. This was truly a Godsend for me today. I searched Google last night to answer a question very similar to this. I was not searching for it just now, but I logged in to WA and right there it was, as if it was there just for me.

Hi Leo, am staring to think more seriously about the theme pages here on WA, was wondering if you might know what kind of themes have the parent & child themes like Omega, but also are able to handle the technology of mobile phones and the aps. Looking for something that works great on computers, and also great on mobile phones or tablets!

Everything I use is from Thrive Themes - as with most advanced themes creating a child theme is pretty straight forward. They have a walkthrough of how to set up your child theme.
I also use to use Studio Press before moving to Thrive - Studio press uses the Genesis framework which you buy once and then you can buy the individual child themes
Themes from both are all mobile responsive

This should help you figure out what's going on. https://www.mhthemes.com/support/solving-http-errors-when-uploading-images-in-wordpress/
Many times it's because of a plugin conflict - to find out if it is a plugin problem, disable your plugins and try upoading an image.
If things go well, activate one plugin at a time and then upload another image - repeat this until you find the problem plugin or you confirm it's not a plugin issue.
Hope that helps

Thanks Leo. You are a motivation and I love reading your posts so I have followed you as I am sure I will learn a thing or 2. I was not active in WA for a while but I am back and want to take positive steps each day to help me achieve my goal of making a full time income online.
Thanks for the follow. I hope hope to aspire others like you in the WA community. As newbie in WA what words of wisdom can you tell me about WA community. Is WA really rewarding and have you been able to travel and have financial freedom? Do you have any other source of income or WA is sufficient enough to make a decent living?

You need to go into NameCheap where you bought your domain name and change the DNS to point to the WA servers, you'll find the WA DNS info under Domains in siterubix.
If you do a search here there are many videos showing how to change the DNS in namecheap to the WA.

Hello Leo,
I just started my online cou3rses and I been doing some reading and see you posted something along the lines of 35000 this year in a hard niche....may I ask what your niche is? and did you choose a hard niche as a challenge? I appreciate any feedback that you can other to help me chose my 1st niche. I use to work at Amazon here in Baltimore and was a day one associate that started on the floor and quickly moved up to HR, but during my 2 1/2 years there I saw 2 items on a daily basis and I would like to choose those as my niches for my free web pages, do you think that would be a good idea I know the products sell and move at a high volume but I see Kyle mentions it should be something you are interested in - I am not interested in either!!!! But I have 3 children to take care of and money and hard work interest me the most in life. What would you say about not having an interest in my niches?

My niche is the financial niche. In the long run it usually is best to start with a niche you are interested in, simply because you're going to be talking about it and promoting it for a long time.
So it is easier to do that with a product or service your interested in.
Now with that said you do have a little of an inside track as you were at Amazon - if you think you can get interested and motivated and stay motivated and as you know the products that sell at a high volume - honestly it's something to consider.

Leo first since you are not a newbie with WA, a welcome to me seems a bit off so I say to you it is a pleasure knowing you and hope that my stay will be as long or longer than yours and also lucrative as your endeavors are. That is a mouthful, but I say it with all sincerity. Now, I need help learning the dashboard for enhancing my site on Spelt flour. It is called www.EstasDaughter.com. I want to showcase the many uses, benefits of this ancient flour and present it to any who have a problem with migraines, hbp, anxiety, and like that. I have plenty of content but WP is not a site that is easily navigatible. Maybe you could give me some pointers as to what I should do to improve it and move it along a little faster. Hope so and thanks for any advice, etc.

Aweber has training for all this - but it will go like this:

2) Create an optin form (that goes on your site)
3) Create a series of follow up messages
During the setup process you will create a confirmation message that will go to your subscribers automatically - you can also set it up once they have confirmed thier request they get automatically sent to your download page - you will have to create this page.

Hello Leo! I was wondering if you could help me? My website is almost together, but now I am trying to get it hooked up with Amazon. I already signed up with them as an affiliate, and have added a plugin, but I can not get the plugin and amazon together!! Should I just try to go with another plugin? This is my first plugin addition attempt, so I might not be doing something correctly... I would appreciate any help you could give me. Thanks

Do you think that using the no follow can affect the ranking?
I don't know if I should put a no follow to all my affiliate links?
What do you think about it, if you don't mind?
Thank you very much

Hey, Leo...after reading your replies to a few members, I realize I definitely need to follow you so I can learn to make my site a profitable one. Is it a fact that any affiliate we promote should be within our niche? I think this was covered in a lesson to stick to your niche.
For example, my niche is basically cooking and entertaining but I have a personal background which covers much, much more than just eating and drinking. As touched on in my "About Karen", I've owned, driven, raced and been a race instructor for Porsche....could I promote Porsche? (Just re-read that and I don't go into any detail about my Porsche or racing experience). I didn't because this had nothing to do with my niche. Would love your thoughts,
Karen

You can promote anything you like, it's always best to choose something you have as a passion or a hobby.
As for the affiliates, yes you want to promote products and services that relate to your niche. So if you have a site about cars you don't want affiliate links to dog supplies. Stay within the theme of your niche.
Hope this helps

My pleasure to meet you. I enjoyed your blog posts, and I like your display picture :))
Are you a freelancer in design and stuff like that? I was actually thinking of updating my newly built website, after I generate a certain income (hopefully with the help of WA).
Hope we stay in touch!
Cheers,
Zarina

Hi Leo
read some of your blogs. Clearly a man who knows what he is talking about.
Will be watching and listening to you very closely.
One question for you - apart from blogging every day. What would you say is closer to success in affiliate marketing, that I should do every day? Your top 3 - 5 pointers please.
Best Regards
Harin

Hi Leo. I'm new to online marketing and it sounds like you have a lot of experience and success.
I have a conventional graphics and printing background (translation - old guy)
I'm in the process of building my website now and am uncertain how it should look. Someone said it shouldn't look like a storefront. Any insights?

Yeah staying away from the storefront look is a good idea.
I know being a graphics guy myself it can be easy to go a little overboard, so remember less is more.
What niche are you thinking of going into? Once you know that head to Google and do a search for sites within your niche this will give you some ideas of what to do and what not to do.
And of course if you ever need a hand just send me a PM.

Thanks for the reply Leo. My first inclination for a niche was something within the graphics and print field but I'm an avid tennis player and Kyle's advise is to pick something we really enjoy so I thought I would build a website dedicated to recreational tennis.
When I do a google search for anything related to tennis I just get the big box stores and the major manufacturers.

Hi Leo,
I took you advice that yo gave me in the chat room about clearing my cache to see if I could get to switch my pages to "visible" in the edit mode. I did not solve the problem.
My theme requires that I use the plug-in called "Breadcrumb. I. installed it yesterday and every thing was normal, When I went to edit my page this morning, I encountered the problem. DSo you have any more suggestions?

Good to meet you online, Leo! Thanks for the training pieces. I'm new at this, and links and embeds and all that kind of thing seem to be my nemesis. So I will no doubt be trawling the WA website continuously looking for tips, shortcuts, trade secrets and the like. I take heart regarding your comment on the marathon vs the sprint approach. The marathon is more my speed in any case. Thanks again. I wish you continuing success.

In Wordpress as per Lesson 2, I added my individual 'Page titles' but when I go to my Dashboard to select 'Appearance', 'Menus' I am taken to an 'EDIT MENUS' page but when I select my page titles it does not allow me to 'Add to Menu' as per the Lesson 2 video and there is no 'Manage Locations' tab next to the 'Edit Menu' tab for me to select and make changes there also. Are you able to help me out with thanks Eth ;)

You have to create a menu first. Give your menu a name and then click create menu. I took a screen shot.

Once you do that then the Manage Locations tab will appear - you can create different menus and so on. Here's a screen shot after I created the first menu.

Thank you Leoemery. I'm in the starter course and just finished lesson 9. I noticed that the theme I chose was not the one Wordpress listed as active. No theme is showing yet, as I can only guess that will happen later, but I certainly don't want the one listed now. Am I able to change it now?

Leo, I have a video question for you and wondering if you could give me a little guidance. I need you to do a video for me and do it for free! lol
All kidding aside, I am learning and can't figure out something I am sure has a simple explanation. I did a short test video using JING from my computer. I saved to my desktop and it only lets me save it as a swf file. First of all what is that and second it will not open up and let me play the file. I tried a 'open with' MS movie maker but it won't play.
I'm trying to learn how to save it to be able to up load it as a media file (wondering if I have to learn FTP to upload it to my website) on my wordpress site. Can't I just go into my media library and select the file on my computer (as long as I saved it in the correct format) and upload it to my library just like I do with an image? And then also wondering, just like I have to compress an image file before uploading it do I have to do something like this for the video?
Sorry, I know this is not just one question, but any direction will help, Thanks.

SWF - means ShockWave File
Try dragging the file into a web browser window.
And no you can't just upload the video file to your website it will not work
It needs to be hosted and then the embed code is what gets loaded onto your site.
So you need to load the video to YouTube or use a paid service like Viemo to host your videos.
You may want to look at buying snagit - - there use to be a pro version of JING. But now the MPEG-4 video functionality has been incorporated into snagit from JING.
Much better program and it's not expensive at all. It's only $50

Wow, I would have never guessed you could drag it up there to have it play, it worked great. Will that SWF file upload to Youtube?
What are your feelings about Sceencast-o-matic? I will probably eventually buy camtasa but want to learn a bit more before soaking the cash.
And in regards to uploading to Youtube is there a way to do that for Youtube and not have all the ads? Our do you have to pay something like Viemo to get no ads?
Thanks so much for your willingness to help.

Hi Leo, I found your training videos on getting widgets in the sidebar very helpful but I can't for the life of me manage to get them into the body of my pages/posts. The attach/remove link icons are in the tools menu but don't appear to be active. Any help would be so appreciated :)

Hey Leo - What cooking? I have a question with regards to your Widget Training. You know how lots people have a widget with a photo and brief intro as their number 1 position on sidebar? Is this accomplished in a similar manner custom widgets? Do I use a text widget and add photo and text?
Thanks
Thanks

Yep done in the same way - use a text widget and add your image code and then your text and you're good to go.
The easiest way to add your image to a widget is open a page and then add your photo - switch to Text mode grab the code and place that code into your widget.
I did a training video showing how to do that:

Sounds like a conflict with the widget and the theme - remove the widget and the simply use a text widget from the back office widgets area and insert your image code into the widget. This should solve the problem.
I did a training video on how to use you editor to create code you can use in your widgets.

Leo, Iv'e asked this question before in the chat but not a straight answer... On my site may I simply choose products and descriptions from my affiliate sites and make it look more retail than blog? I am simply not a review or blogging person but do believe in promoting my chosen niche

Of course you can - but it is content that is going to get traffic to your site - so writing about your products and anything related to them will generate traffic.
And I'm sure you know to do your keyword research for any content you create.

Hi Leo , nice to have an other graphic and web designer here. A quick question you could probably help me with
I need to connect my google with my WA account
I have a googleplus account since about 4 years, which I did with my name: Sabrina Brühwiler - At that time I didn't know about Web Design, so I wasn't thinking about the ü which could be a problem. The thing is, this is my official Google Account - I can just change my Name - it doesn't change my url!
Is there any possibility to embed it to WA that I can use my normal google account or do I need to make another one? Probably someone from the Dev Team which could help me out in writing the code different in the html like that: ü? Or can I change it somewhere in Google?

As part of the TOS with Google plus you can only have 1 Google plus account. However you can create as many pages as you like.
I have my primary Google plus account and I have several pages that represent my other niches. You can create a page and then use that page to connect with the WA.
Hope this helps
