I would like to know what payment method, international transfers, can be used on my website. PayPall will stop allow receiving money if I am not registered as a business in Th

I use Payoneer and I also have a separate bank account such as ANZ. You could try opening another bank account. I opened mine with $5 and linked it to payoneer and PayPal. Just thought it may help you.

On my account, there's only two option payment method, the Paypal and Visa card.

That is entirely up to you but, in my opinion the top two are PayPal and Stripe.

Depending on what you are setting up such as an ecom site or a digital download site or whatever there are numerous ways. The best thing to do is see what the software you are going to use is already setup to interface with and pick from there.

Hi

You may use PayPal or Stripe.

Just checked Stripe is not available in Thailand

You can upgrade your PayPal to business, however you do not have to submit the paperwork right away. However, there's also a down side with PayPal, it may freeze funds as it pleases or dependent your sales data.

I can't use PayPall in February anymore in Thailand and I can't upgrade in Thailand because then I have to register myself as a business.

Hi guys. On the laptop my website shows a menu off course, and I know it needs improvement but on the mobiles it is missing/gone. How can that happen? I have lots of ads above

Hi Clemont
I’m going to state the obvious, just in case. Does a “hamburger” show on your mobile? 3 horizontal lines?
:-)
Richard

Hi Clemont
You may consider relocating the ads by the sidebar or footer. However, some people may be discouraged from seeing ads immediately after they land on your website.
If you are using elementor, you need to set-top menu on the mobile view in your elementor dashboard.

Yes, I know. How to relocate my ads? I couldn't figure it out. TIA

Hi Clemont. I took a look. It definitely doesn't show a working menu on mobile. What theme are you using? Also, the ads at the top are a bit too much. It turns people off when the first thing they see are ads. Just something good to keep in mind.
Paula

Yes. I want to change that.Don't know how yet..

Hi

Is your theme mobile friendly i.e. responsive?

Do you use a webpage builder? Perhaps you'd like navigate settings.

You cannot see it in tablet mode either, if that's the site on your profile.

Hi

You may follow up on below resource going forward

https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-create-and-manage-ads-txt-files-in-wordpress/

Just a thought.
Are you getting a lot of traffic to your posts currently?
How many posts do you have?

Before using ads be sure you have a good volume of traffic to you site. Without traffic ads will not accomplish what you are looking for.

I know, but it's on the training. I always can stop them from appearing, can't I? I'm trying to get traffic these days.

There are some good blogs on WA about Google Ads. You may find them helpful. We aren't using them right now.

I would like to mask a link in a banner. How and where can I do that? TIA

Couple of things to keep in mind here.

If you just mask something, you could break the tracking. Some networks and even more in-house programs aren't sophisticated enough to do that.

The merchant or network may not want you to do that. Make sure you get approval from everyone first (especially if you are making your own banner instead of using what they offer), or you may not earn any commissions.

Why do you want to do this?

There aren't banners so I need to produce one myself to display them on FB. I don't need to mask it, but I mean when they click on the banner they will be directed to the site. I will write the name of the company in the banner off course. But please help, I'm stuck with it at the moment. How do you create banners?

If the merchant isn't offering banners, you absolutely need their permission before you create one.

You may find that they will create one for you if you ask them to.

They say that I can create banners

You must be working with an in-house program then, cause a network or network level merchant wouldn't permit that.

I have no idea. I can create banners but now I have downloaded Pretty links plug in, guess what? Not sure how to use it.lol

Hi


Pretty links

I watched the first video. I don't see the create button. Do I need to upload the banner first and how to do that? I've created a banner,

how to put the link in the banner? TIA

You can go to CanVA and do that friend. All the best!

I've created a banner, downloaded it, now how to proceed..

Here is how to add the link to the banner friend. It should take you to lesson 3 and be able to apply your link in lesson 4 of this training. All the best!

Add the banner image to your website. Then, in the option below the image, choose "Custom URL" and add your links.
You can also shorten it with Pretty links.

Pretty links? Where can I find that? TIA

Ive got it, now how to add the banner in the dashboard and proceed from there? Any demo video? TIA

Yes, this explains it. Thanks!

Yu are welcome

You

Do you have Pretty Links installed?

No. Where can I find that?
I made a banner, but don't know how to add my link.
I'm on everything Richard lol, still busy with the Adsense too :)

Pretty links is a plugin that you’ll find under Plugins / Add New at WP dashboard. If you need more help with this please ask…
:-)
Richard

Yep, like I said above, downloaded the banner on my computer, got Pretty links but stuck here too lol. Appreciate your time :)

That's OK Clemont ... just keep asking until you get there.
What is the sticking point ...
:-)
Richard

Right from the start. I havea banner from Canvas, just a first try, now how to get it on FB with the link in it? The link from a Tefl course I promote or WA for example?

I have to add it in the dashboard of my site first, I don't know where and how to use Pretty links. I watched a video, but I need to go back a step before I guess. In the video she had everything set up already.

It's now 10:15 in Portugal and I'm wide awake!
So you have 5 questions I guess:
1. How to get and set up Pretty Links plugin?
2. How do you create a "pretty link"?
3. How to add your image to your WP Image Library?
4. How do you add the image to your site?
5. How do you add the link to the image?

Now... this will be pretty wordy... but it takes much longer to write and read than to actually do. When you've done it a few times it'll take just a minute or 5.

1. As for most free versions of plugins, (some are not found this way) at your WP dashboard go to Plugins / Add New

Type "pretty links" (no quotes) into the search area near the top on the right. No need to click. In the list of plugins that appear, it should be the top left (the first one).

Click "Install Now" then "Activate" it.

2. A link to the Pretty Links settings will appear on the left side of the dashboard possibly just above the Appearance link. Go to Pretty Links / Add New to add a new link.

Copy your link URL from wherever it is and paste it into the Target URL box.

In the box to the right of your site URL, add a link name of your choice. My main link just simply says WA ... but call it what you like... that's the prettifying done.

Add a description that might say: "Main Wealthy Affiliate link"

At the top of the panel give the new link a name such as "Main WA Link" or similar. The name and description are just for your convenience of course. They are worth filling out clearly though because over time you might create many Pretty Links.

In the Advanced section click the "Sponsored" box.

Then remember to click Update (top right).

This will be the first Pretty Link in the list that appears under Pretty Links / Pretty Links (ho ho... too many pretty links here but you'll see what I mean).

At the right-hand end of the listed item, click the little square which copies the new link to the clipboard ready for pasting later.

3. Now add your image to the WP Image library. There are a few ways to do this... here is one...

In WP dashboard go to Media / Add New
Either click the box to find your image and upload it to WP or simply drag the image into the Add New are and drop it there.

Then go to Media / Library and click the image. In the panel that pops up on the right add some Alt Text (used by Google). A good practice is to describe the image while keeping the words as relevant as possible for a specific article or niche.
Then add a description at the bottom (I usually just copy and paste the Alt Text.
Leave the Caption blank unless you really want to add a caption.

4. I seem to remember that you want to add the banner/image to your right sidebar. Is that correct?

If so go to Appearance / Widgets...

Open up the Right Side Bar if that's where you want to image to go. Click the + sign and search for the Image block. (If you get stuck with this at all just ask). Click the Image block to install it and you can then add your image.

You can upload a new image or if you've followed the best practice as already described, go to Media Library via a link in the Image block and select the image that you've prepared.

5. Once you've added an image, click the image (block) and you'll see the popup shown below. Click the link icon,,, as arrowed ...
Up pops the box below and copy your pretty link into the box at 2...
then click the down arrow at 3 ...

Then see Popup2... click the Open In New Tab switch, type sponsored at 5 and then click the bent arrow at 6 to save.

Now UPDATE (top right of screen).

That should do it. Any questions, you know what to do ...
:-)
Richard

I can't make it work. The normal link works, not the pretty link. Sigh

Hi clemont
So you can add a link to the image, but not the pretty link for some reason.
What happens when you try to add the pretty link?
:-)
Richard

It goes to the image

I want WA banner about Black Friday on my site and also on FB. How to get the banner in a FB post? Thank you again sir!

So, ignoring the FB question for a minute or ten, what's the problem with Pretty Links and the Image then? (that sounds like the title of a song perhaps!).
