Like creating a new website to use as a test website?

I think I do use a popup blocker but this notification bar would be 'fixed' at the top so would that make a difference?

Greetings back from up north

Yes the universe is a "video game" if that makes you understand better, and yes we are the players.

And yes, we can choose any route or door or abyss or mountain top we like, provided WE FOLLOW ALL THE RULES OF THE GAME. The Gamer has given us all the freewill, as well as VERY SPECIFIC GUIDELINES NOT TO ABUSE THAT FREEWILL, that I can call rules of the game.

Irrespective of the path you take, be it the mountain top or the abyss, if your journey is in accordance with the rules, be sure to be counted among the winners when the time comes.

Freewill is the biggest enemy to the players because they often abuse it and think it's their right to do as they please, because when you take a closer look, the presence of guidelines indirectly mean that you can't just fly. You must fly the way the Gamer wants you to fly.

The Gamer is always watching, but He will never intervene again (as He used to do in the past) until His game is over.

For the record, this same Gamer, in the past, had completely wiped out the first set of players and killed them all, with a huge flood, because they were Just too stubborn and would not listen or follow any of His guidelines. He made a promise with the few survivors He had chosen, that never again was He going to eradicate players with a flood.

And to seal that contract with those few survivors, the Gamer created a rainbow. Did you ever know that each time a rainbow appears in a cloud, it is the Gamer reminding Himself about what happened way long in the past? It was also to be a solemn reminder to the second set of players, what He did to the first set3 of players who were sooooo wicked and evil.

But simply because the current players lack knowledge, they have attributed all sorts of meaning to \ud83c\udf08 rainbow.

So watch out for the Gamer's rules. They will determine the losers and winners, when the Gamer finally declares GAME OVER, even though each and every one had an equal amount of FREEWILL.

Are you active on social media? Twitter, FB, Pinterest, Instagram? Have you joined similar groups there?
By being active on platforms I mean sharing articles from others, like or pin. Follow and follow back people.

You must ensure that you become known out there.

You can also find (authority) websites and write guest posts, most moderators allow you to leave a link to your own blog

Place comments on other related websites, especially where you can enter a website field.

And keep on blogging, at least twice a week, until you get the result you want.

I hope this will help you a bit.

Hi Loes, over time I have taken tags on and off my website due to the fact that I keep getting mixed messages about them. I can definitely see the value in them as you have explained, but do we need them if we already categorise our posts? I have about 10 different categories that I use and I have been told (from what I believe is a reputable source) that I should not use both categories AND tags as it's overkill and could been seen as over optimisation.

Please can you let me know what you think about this? Do you use both tags and categorise your posts too?

Thanks :-)

Yes, it is awful in certain parts of Spain. Remember I had a post on Cabo de Gata? Almeria province. We had a weekend there in March for stone hunting, We stayed in the little town of San Jose, a lot of damage, partly washed out into the sea. In Murcia they are on red alert in the whole area, airport closed, many trains canceled, 84 roads blocked, lots of cars washed away, 4 people dead, people had to be rescued by helicopter, The big dam on the verge of overflowing so had to let water out. Many people had to be evacuated. Rainfall of up to 400 liters in 3 hours.
Here we are sitting and not a drop of rain since April. Weather is getting more extreme.

Good evening Loes,

Many people will find a lot of useful information in your training.
I had to laugh, Mc Donald has gone green?

I like it Loes.
WP is not my strong point though.
So I have a question.
What happens to those pages/posts URL you are linking to?

What I mean is if you have them in your Site Info wont that make the Posts/Pages URLs redundant and you would have to delete them in Google Console?

Hi Loes,

I switched over to Yoast and I don't have SEO all in one. Where/how do I get to robots.txt to add the rule to my roots directory? Thanks Loes.

@DianeScorpio How did you send the ads.txt file to SiteSupport Team? I tried to attach the file but they said only jpg and png files are accepted. Many thanks!

Hey Loes,

A very appropriate piece as it could mean a huge amount to the deceased's estate.

Imagine you've been at this online thing for several years and it's producing substantial income and you suddenly "pop off", wouldn't you want your dependents and loved ones etc to have the benefit of all that effort?

Of course, anybody would, so the need for forward planning is one that everyone should consider.

Imagine all that WA, Amazon, Clickbank, Adsense etc income being paid into accounts and not being properly distributed according to one's wishes!!

Thanks for bringing it to everybody's attention Loes.

Mark

Just fine, how are you?
