Core “Business Start Up” Training

I read an article that said to ensure that your online business is legal to avoid a lawsuit and that
thousands of online businesses face lawsuits each year. This can be pre

Just follow your basic guidelines and you're good to go. Don't use other people's images without permission, don't use other people's content without permission, etc. As long as you're delivering helpful content that is your own and not breaking copyrights you won't have problems. There's no reason to be scared when operating your own business.

Thank you so much for your help. Have a great day!

This seems a bit scary to think about it. All I know in my country, there are no problems, only when you earn money you need to get freelancer status or other status, so you can pay taxes etc. (That is if you really start earning more than just few sales.)

About images, I only use the ones (mentioned in training) that are free to use or my photos

Good to hear, thanks for stopping by and commenting!

Good question Richard.

I think this can be something that Kyle's core training could maybe mention. I haven't gone through the new set of training yet so maybe he has.

But in the past, the training didn't cover the part that mentions we need to incorporate a company at the back of our website.

But maybe it is too difficult to do a training video to talk about it as it is too broad where different countries have different regulatory requirements.

Yes it is good to implement all that is needed because this sort of issue can take anyone who does not know by surprise. So it is best to play it safe and be safe. Thanks again and have a great day!

I saw the same. 53% got a lawsuit. I could not read it; it was Lawer selling a book around it.

But there are some things like don´t use an images which isn´t allowed to, have warnings right, etc.

Yes copy right, before any images is used you must ensure these images are allowed to be used for free, get permission from the owners for those that may not be free, or going through the right channels and paying for images that are not free to use. I believe that we also have access to free images hear at the Wealthy Affiliate community. It is always best to play it safe. Have a good day.

You can copy and paste your URL into GPT, just add some support content related to your post to create some engagement (versus just link dropping)

If you have a specific page you need a hand with, just let us know. ;)

Hello Kyle, thanks so much for your help. Will do and all the best to you!

I would put my URL into Chatgpt and ask it to write a twitter post for that post

Thank you so much and have a good day!

Hello and Happy Wednesday, I was thinking should every blog have a term of service or term of condition to protect it from legal action and if yes should the terms of service o


My understanding is that a Privacy Policy and Diclosure statement are legal requirements. Terms of Service become legal when stated and reflect your commitment,

Richard

Morning thanks so much!

Do you have a privacy policy on site?

And a disclosure, yeah! :)

I have seen them both ways; however, in the training on the primary menu, Disclosures are to follow up on FTC guidelines.

Abie

Hello my friend, I have affiliate disclosure and privacy policy displayed on my website.

But because I have a site that recommends pest control products I thought it best to play it safe by also including terms and conditions for example reading carefully, understanding and following the direction on the manufacturer's label before use to ensure safety.

Yeah, you can do that... Not an issue at all.
I would follow up on manufacturers' instructions and disclaimers, if any.
Abie

Thanks so much my friend for responding as always! Praying that you have a safe and successful week. Have a great day.

Thank you so much, and I wish you the same.

Hello everyone and Happy Monday

I need your help with this issue I am having, I created a newsletter and added it to one of my pages but when I go to my website it show

You are looking at your site in preview mode not a published page.

That's an excellent point, lol.
Abie

Good morning and thanks so much for the insight.

Another solution is clearing the caches of both servers and browsers and seeing if there's any change.

Or

Publish the Page (The preview=true parameter usually shows up when viewing an unpublished or draft page. Make sure the page is published.) You may want to check with support on this - Help tab top menu.

Abie

The first thing that comes to mind is your hyperlinks in General Settings. Have you checked there?

If this is not associated with your site, i.e., using a plugin or another service provider, check with their docs or support.

Go to the page and try a quick edit; see if you can change the URL.

Which email provider provider are you using for your newsletter?

Abie

Hello my friend thank you so much will let you know how it goes.

You are welcome.
Have a great week ahead.
Abie

You to!

Np! :)
