I purchased Themify "Master Club" membership today. I downloaded a theme to my laptop. when I went to my website to upload new theme I don't know which file to select to upload
Themify, anyone know what file to upload?

Yes the theme should have a zip file for you. If you're on a mac, i found that the zip gets automatically unzipped, so that could be your problem. It needs to remain a zip file.
You would use that zip file (one file) to upload to your site through the Theme section of your WP Dashboard.
Okay, I see what I did wrong. I unzipped the file with WinRaR.
I'm on Windows.
Thank you for your help

I get motivated and feel I become unblocked by listening to classical music, Johann Sebastian Bach is one of my many favorites.
I sit with my echo plus behind me and at m
We do some yoga or go to the gym to take ourselves out of our heads. Then, we have some wine!!

Headphones on some classic rock to clear the head and take the dog to the dogpark to get some laughs.

As Grace says and I'll agree with what she says, as it what I do as well, plus a ton of other things, including YouTube
I also take walks as well, when my head is a little cloudy from deciding which direction to take
I also use a manual surf traffic exchange as well, to see what new business opps are floating around and note them down, to write on
Just some of what I do
You will never run out of content:
- go do some keyword research, then go on google with those and check out your competitors and what they write about on their sites. To get ideas and inspiration, this is what you need to do.
- Get on email lists of top blogs in your niche and see what their email funnel is like as well as what ideas you can get for your own posts from their emaills.
- Get on Google Alerts about your niche. You can set up certain keywords for the Google Alerts and you could get some breaking news stuff in your niche which could bring you TONS of traffic, or just ideas for posts in general.
There are always people in your niche that have reached to a level you want to be at so go and observe what they do, what keywords they use, what topics they like, what readers you think they are reaching.
Bring all that info into your own spin and create your own unique content out there and you'll have a great site.
Remember keywords are the path to traffic, so spend a lot of time keyword researching as this is truly where your content starts at.
Once you have the keyword, you go with it, that's your post. That's why you should have a list of these keywords and then you just start writing each one of them out like clockwork.
You need keywords, so become an expert at it... practice makes perfect. :)
Hey Michelle,
I like to take a walk which will usually clear my mind and get my juices flowing again!!

Walking is Good and where we are, we have 11 lakes, that we can walk around, which very peaceful
When I have my motivational moments, I typically write down a bunch of possible keywords to research. When the block hits me, I just jump to those unused keywords to see which one inspires me and I go at it. Also, I listen to a bit of rock to get my juices going.
Hi Michelle. Interesting Subject here. I get blocked a lot.
To help, I Read others blogs or just get up and move around and let my mind be free. Sometimes this does't work so I have to take off a few days from writing. It's an on and off thing for me i guess.

Crystal, I know how you feel somedays I just have to walk away and do something else. I catch up on my favorite show or read a book, sometimes when the weather is sunny and nice I just sit outside watching nature, I listen to birds singing, and watch squirrels running from one tree to another.
Sometimes we just need breaks to recharge.

I want to be sure when I share a product on my social media via Facebook and Twitter that it has my Amazon affiliate link because when I copied the link
You can assure that when you click FB or Twitter than your affiliate link is in there if you're using Site Strip. When I clicked on Twitter, there was an amazon link in there. It's a shortened link so you won't see your Associate IDs in the link.
I don't quite know what you are asking for. I suspect no one else has responded because of that, but maybe it is just me. Can you provide a few more details? Thanks.
On Amazon, there's a site stripe at top of the page like a toolbar, it has links and images for us to copy and paste for our websites, what I am asking is on that site strip there's also share to social media via Facebook and Twitter. I want to be sure when I share a product on my social media that it has my Amazon affiliate link because when I copied the link into notepad to check it, I did not see my Amazon affiliate link attached.
Perhaps you did it already, so excuse me if you did. In the search box at the top type in amazon sitestripe and there are a number of training posts that might help. Good luck. I am not using the Amazon SiteStrip myself, but I have gone through several trainings. The one titled "Adding Amazon Affiliate Links With SiteStripe" could be the one you need.
You're reading my mind! LOL, I was doing that when you replied to this comment :D
Thank you for the reply.
Michelle
Yes me too, I would just hate to know I have been wasting my time with my shares and ads to all these Facebook networking marketing groups and sell groups for nothing, but, then again I need to know and make changes, this is a lot of work for nothing if this is the case!

The capital letter on my website is huge and too far way, I don't know how to fix this
Michelle,
Did you type this in - and if so try to delete it and start over
I am not sure if it could be theme related or what but I
think that might be where I would start.
Just curious how did it get that way in the first place
Susan
Just normal writing, it just shows up that way. When I take it to edit it looks fine, when I update and look at my site that's the way it is. Someone it's not most of the time it's back to looking like that
Michelle,
I have a website I use to play around on with themes and
stuff do you know what theme you are using and is this
a post or page if you give me that information I will see
if I can replicate it or find a fix for it :)
Susan
It's a post. Blogger Era is the theme. Sometimes when I look at it, it's fine other times it's not. The I'm is messed up on my about post too. https://blessedisme.siterubix.com
I will get back to you in a few minutes this will take me
some time to check out on my sandbox site LOL
Michelle,

are looking at - try not to use the Kindle I think that is the problem
WA is set up to run on Chrome the best :)
Susan

Susan

click add new enter "Contact Form 7" this is a nice
form and add it to your blog at the bottom of the
page it is a short link and does not have to go into
the text part no one sees it just you in WP see if you
like it and let me know
