Email Marketing
Updated

I want to start an email list but I am not sure what the best WordPress add-on is for doing that, what are your thoughts?

I would also like to know myself! Never have used any because I don't know how it all works.

I switched from AWeber to MailerLite.

I use GetResponse. Aweber is also excellent.

I've heard that Aweber is good.

Carson has recommended http://aweber.com

I don't know either tried few but thry didn't work the way I wanted. So can't answer but will follow what others say

It isn't recommend you try doing this yourself, it's likely to get your domain blacklisted!!

You should sign up to an email autoresponder service such as AWeber (premium) www.aweber.com or MailerLite (free tier) www.mailerlite.com

You'll then be able to embed their forms into your website or use a variety of plugins that are compatible with them.

I'd avoid using a popup, except perhaps on exit, as Google is already penalising these on mobile and has announced it will follow suit shortly on other platforms.

Thank you Rich. I didn't know that. I'll try one of them.

No probs. you're most welcome! There's a whole classroom on email marketing as well as live video classes available in the left-hand side menu. :)

I'm actually curious to know too Lol.. sorry I don't have the answer for you.

WA Affiliate Program
Updated

I copied and added 2 banner links to my post and published it. I then went online to my site and licked on the banners and I get this message:

This site can’t be

I contacted site support when that happens.

Iam interested in your resolution. I see Marion has provided some excellent links.

Wayne

Thank you both were very helpful and I was able to fix my problem.

good morning

Since this is a WA characteristic Nancy, follow Robert A's suggestions and if you still cant get a solution contact Site Support!

Looks to me that there is part of the link missing. Why dont you try and copy your link again and update your link and see if that helps.

One of two reasons Nancy.
One, the WA servers could be having some maintenance done.
Two - Is your site a SiteRubix one or one with your own Domain.
If its your own then perhaps you haven't activated the https SSL and it still has http.

If its a SiteRubix you wont have https anyway so its probably the first reason.
Perhaps you could clear your DNS cache.
Sometimes this helps.
Robert

It's my own domain. I'll check that and then try putting in the codes again. Thank you both.

I created a work from home board on Pinterest and wanted to put something from WA on it how do I do that?

What is a URL and an http? How do you apply that in your website and what is their importance?

You do not need to apply either to your website.

The URL is basically the website address that appears above and the http is part of that website address that appears at the beginning.

Thank you boomergp08. I get it now. Appreciate that.

TERRY CARROLL ANSWER YOUR QUESTION

See this post from Loes

Add the "pretty link lite" plugin to your website and change the link into http://yourwebsite/WA
That way they will accept your post Terry

Actually, that post is from me, not Loes.

But unfortunately that does not work Terry. I tried that a while ago. All that Pretty Link does is make the link visually better by masking it.

It does not cloak or change the actual target URL and that is what both Pinterest and Google+ are lloking at to determine if the links are suspect.

Did you ever find out the information you was looking for, if so please let me know.

You can also find some good info in level 4 lesson 4 of the Online Entrepreneur Certification course
Cheers Gina

Thank you

Unfortunately you cannot share content directly from WA on both Pinterest and Google+ because they have been earmarked as spam by those networks.

The only way to bypass this roadblock is to create a website promoting WA and place the WA affiliate links within that website post. Then share that post on Pinterest and Google+.

Thank you I didn't know that.

There are lots of ways. If you have a blog that is promoting WA, then you could share your blog posts there. You need to find away to share content that might be of value to others, and then ultimately send them to WA if that is your niche. Honestly, there are whole trainings out there just on Pinterest. Think about finding one to learn the best way to use Pinterest before you start. That will make your experience and outcome much better.

Getting Started

I am converting my siterubix website to my own domain here at WA but the domain name I really wanted isn't available so...... Which is better a realize-wealth.com or realizewea

Better to use the hyphen with the .com My view is the end of the tail resonates more than the hyphen and its a great idea for getting around taken or parked for $ URL's

I'm with the others that say, don't use the hyphen, but dot com is better than dot org. I would keep looking for something with dot org and no hyphen.

If you really want to use the words "realize wealth" try adding something to it, like:

pathtorealizingwealth.com
realizewealthnow.com
wealthrealized.com

Hope this helps.

I personally think that the dot com helps more with brand-ability, everyone is more familiar with it.

Also, I am aware that the association of being a non-profit has been removed from sites created with the .org, but I can't help but still think in my mind anytime I see a web address with a .org behind it that it is a non-profit, a school, or something similar.

I agree with TravisBille, The .org does not seem to fit with the niche.

I like findingwealth.com or discover wealth or (your)wealth discovery? - finding a domain is hard today The rule is no hyphen - people will forget that, just like no numbers - 50- - people don't know to type a number or write a number

The best answer is the one without the hyphen, but .com is actually better than .org.

Work on finding a better .com one, such as:
http://discoverwealth.com - http://discoveringwealth.com
http://wealthathome.com
http://wealthfromhome.com
http://findingwealth.com

(the first name redirects to a women's Radio website - two of these names may be for sale...

I prefer to not have a hypen in the name, however I prefer .com before .org.

.org conveys to me something like a non-profilt group and I doubt that is what you want to convey.

I would try and find a .com without a hypen. Keep trying. If not then .com.

Just gut feeling but probably the dot com
Richard

Personally, I would go with realize-wealth.com, but that's based almost entirely on a gut feeling. The .org domains just don't seem like they fit with the niche.

I think the .com is better.

Personally I prefer the .com but the - can you buy a domain with that. Otherwise it's what makes you happy. The .org is easier to remember.

Authoring & Writing Content
Updated

When I'm creating a post the paragraph toll and all the others disappear and I can't use them to add links or edit or anything why?

If this does not work then something is blocking your javascript

This plugin
(use google libraries) can sometimes solve this problem

Follow these steps

Go to users >> your profile

Check the box marked show tool bar when viewing site

Did you try "SiteContent"?

use the WA content is better

Did you get the information that you was looking for.

Here's a screen shot tell me where to get the tool bar

You probably have a plugin conflict, did you recently add plugins? Deactivate them one by one, and look if your toolbar appears again

Your WP Editor is in crisis. Deactivate all your plugins one at a time , if there is no change turn it back on and deactivate another one.

Contact support if this doesn't work.

Thank you both Loes and Chris I deactivated my plugins and now it works. Now I'll try to figure out which one it is.

Activate the plugins in the best order you can remember they were installed checking the Editor as you go. When the editor disappears (due to HTML conflict of "Theme Functions - MCE") deactivate that plugin otra ves y activate the others one at a time.

Let me know which plugin caused the conflict and I will write you code to replicate the function or tell you a different plugin.

Glad you found the cause:)

There is no toggle bar it's not there

I asked that question for 4 days straight!!! It was my theme. I had to go pro before WP would give me all of the options
Everyone told me to hit toggle bar and there wasn't one of that.

If you're in WordPress, the button on the far right in your editing tools is the kitchen sink. It will open another row of editing tools.

You have it collapsed or you have it in undistracted mode.

Okay how do I fix it?

Hit to icon on the toggle bar that opens it up. Travis just told you how.

The problem is, there is no button. I had this issue on all of my sites where the editing tools wouldn't come up on screen, and had to install the CKEditor plugin on my sites.
