how do I get my image on my profile for my web page without gravitar. I don't know how to use gravitar?

I would take the time to set up a Gravatar, it sure beats having to update a bunch of pictures or having a default icon next to comments you post.

I saw your question and did a quick search. I didn't see anything really comprehensive so I whipped up a post real quick.

If you do reconsider using a Gravatar, maybe it'll help you:

Thanks for being awesome!

I would love to use Gravatar. I tried. It said they sent me a confirmation email and I never received it. I would love some assistance with Gravatar. I have two websites I'm trying to get images on with no success. Thank you for responding I would love your help. Subnetbuzz thank you!

Did you check your junk mail folder? Sometimes overzealous spam traps get the best of us.

Another thing, and I know it's obvious but it's bitten me a time or two as well, double check that the email address doesn't have any typos.

You can "Add Media" while you're in the WP editor and add your own image. But if you're talking about the little circle picture that comes with the user name, the only way is use the gravitar. It's really easy to do it... Users > select your user > Edit.

Under the profile pic, you see "You can change your profile picture on Gravatar." Click that link and get it set up. It doesn't take long, there you can upload your pic.

I did create an Gravatar account without any success. My confirmation email was never sent. I'm not sure what I did wrong or what I should do to continue to correct the issue. I will try again. Thank you littlemama.

from like godaddy or here at WA what is more cost effective?

My domain buy in the WA. Easy to operate and hosting free and site protected.

I agree with you Alex. Godaddy is not cheap. Good info Jchris. Best to you pavonjed.

Thank you :)

WA is more cost effective if you compare to GoDaddy.

GoDaddy might lure you in with a low cost offer but you'll pay a LOT when the renewal time comes.
I've been doing this for almost 10 years and I started with GoDaddy and at some point had about 100 domain names. Happy to report that for the past few years I've been able to get all of my domain names away from GoDaddy and this is saving me a bunch of money!

Yes...owning your own domain is a powerful thing...always recommended to get one with a ".com" and avoid punctuation in the name like - dashes, if you can. Hope that helps. :)

I agree JChris - a .com is the best but so often its taken. Im based in the UK and where the .com is unavailable I find the .co.uk often is available.

In that situation would you advise taking the available .co.uk or looking for another name to secure a .com?

It really depends somewhat on your niche, as if it is one that targets a UK audience (like "Stay at Home Mums", instead of "Stay at Home Moms") then, it would work really well, or if it is targeting a non-UK audience where being a Brit would be considered an "authority" trait (like a travel site where people from around the world book travel to the UK and want someone who knows the layout of the land), then this also would work well...if the .co.uk would be a limiting factor, then I would still seek a ".com" and would be happy to make suggestions in a private message. :)

and master card also paypal for purchases on my site? Also, can I and how do I do this also can I have a CRM connected to my site and how (customer relationship manager CRM) </

SSL is useful if you selling your own products!

SSL is the way to go and free. :)

you can use Paypal alone (as it gives you the option to accept credit cards) or you could sign up to a different payment processor.

Great news is that WA just implemented SSL - a great security feature that your site must have in order to securely accept payments. SSL certification usually costs money and you're getting in here with WA at no extra charge ;)

You have to go through a payment processor.

Hello everyone, once I build my website can I add visa?

without paying for monthly first? This seems to be an issue where is the annual option? Why isn't it easily available?

Hey!

I just tried to reply to your email once again and it gets returned to me, saying your email account doesn't exist :(

You can. Go to General Setting or Account settings.
Or click on this link.

Thank you! :)

I see Alex has you covered by email.

For anyone else who wants to know the answer, you can find the upgrade link in the account settings under 'membership options'

Or while in the community, look to the left of your screen immediately below the Affiliate Bootcamp menu tab, where you will see a Red menu tab: "Upgrade to Yearly".

Thank you! :)

I sent you an email a few moment ago ;)
