We learn all from eachother, so ask questions, and the member with the expertise will answer, look through questions, and if you know, be the mentor yourself and give answers.
The whole WA community, not only but especially the ambassadors, are my coaches and mentors. I suspect other members have the same thought.
Some people may need the individual attention.. This not about money or what WA has. It about those individuals who want a coach and those who are willing to do so.
My first point of contact would be the person who invited you WA, but there are so many here who are willing to help and you can take lots of different and invaluable advice from all of them. Asking questions will open you up to some great people here. I'm always happy to help anyone in need.
Hiya Paula
I am certainly willing to be coached and mentored by the good people on here who make a fortune at Online Marketing....oh, wait a minute, I didn't read that right did I? Oops!!

I think the best thing is to connect in the community, ask questions and create rapport. Most of us have our area of expertise, and are also working on our own stuff:)
So to commit as a mentor might be a bit much, however I do get PM'd with questions, I either answer or direct the member to the right person to get the answer .they need
The basic classes are pretty thorough, once you've gone through a few levels, and asked questions, you pretty much have a sense of who to go to, for such and such a subject.
There are many coaches on here, they'll take time to help you out if needed. Just connect with members, and as I said, ask questions on the question forum :)
Hope this helps

I am simply trying to help people that have asked specifically about wanting a coach. I really appreciate your thoughts though..
I am in need of a good English writer who could direct my blogs work. So if anyone interested?
Paul, it is to help connect those that need a little more.. This question seems to be getting lost in the fray.. Yes, everyone helps everyone.. But, some people , NOT all, need or want a little more.. I just want to bring the two together.

How do people get coaches and mentors here?

That is right Kit and that is what this question is about.. I hate to see people struggling and any little bit that can direct them helps.. Personally , that is what I did and I am thankful the person I was bold enough to ask said yes..

It is a totally weird place and very cool. as well, but, I cannot find anyone!
WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS MARKETING PLATFORM? ANYONE?
If you have a Tumblr acc
I do have a tumblr account but I haven't been proactive with it since early 2014. Just checked it out and I think it is too time consuming for me at present.
All the best with your account.
Vivian It is like setting up a mini website! LOl! I was quite surprised!! And to stay away from the porn, I hope to follow my friends here.. I was cautioned to be careful... Eeek!
I know, right!? I will be a good influence I promise.. It just the others i am worried about..
Once I find out how to set up 2 tumbler account on this iPad I will link up to your tumbler account. As of now I have LinkedIn, Google+, Pinterest ... Spending more time there than on my site recently. With 1 tumblr account that belongs to my daughter that she is not using. If anyone knows how to get rid of it on this iPad would be greAt so that I can set up my tumblr account. Thanks and good luck PJ. Apeng.
You should be able to delete it in your tumblr setting... It is a bit slow for me though... Good luck !
I use tumbler all the time, once you start posting people will follow you.but be careful it's usually pornography sites or hook up sites that follow you back. Atleast that has been my experience. I have better luck with Stumbleupon. But I still use tumbler as well. Good luck John D.

I am thinking of selling my Organic Life and Times website. How hard or how possible is this? I do not imagine that I would make much, but, would like to look into the possibi
It's actually very simple as I have bought 14 websites in the last 2 years. I make them profitable and fix them up and then flip them. Best site for this is Flippa. It's the eBay for buying and selling not only websites, but apps, and domains. Good Luck & hope this helps ya. :)
Hi, there Gordon! How are you? and a very Merry Christmas! and a Happy New Year! Thank you for the information.. pJ
Oops, my mistake on the typo. But rectified! Thanks for pointing that out!
I see the distinction you're making. I've never heard much of people actually selling websites, but a lot on domains. I guess I mistakenly assumed PjLucas was wanting to sell her domain.
I apologize, I should pay closer attention next time.
The usual valuation is around 20 times monthly earnings.
Flippa.com is the most popular marketplace for buying and selling sites. But there are a lot of scammy sellers. So a legitimate site can often fetch a lot more than 20x earnings. 30 or 40 times is possible.
If it's a new site, with good content but no earnings, then you wont get much, maybe $50 - 200 depending on the amount of content, how old the site is, if it's on the way to being ranked.
What's the URL?
Hi, there Ian! Hmmm, well, I better let it age a bit and add more content , in the meantime I will be looking into all this great info..
You can sell them on Flippa, Digital Point Forums, Website broker. Basically, the end of this article shows where to buy and sell them: http://tbwhs.com/blog/buying-a-domain-name/

For a newer site, over 5 months old, and only just learning about bounce rates, my WA site tonight is 83%. That is awful! Should I be worried? Is this simply a new site issue
HI, I can see my bounce rate when logged into my google analytics account and click on the Audience Overview Report.(Click on Audience - then overview)
Mind is fairly high too, but the average number of pages viewed is usually 1.75. Not sure what to make of that.
They look at one and 3/4 quarter pages! You have to wonder about these stats, Peter! They really need some work.. That is like the average family having 1.3 children.. Ugh. we need definition of stats just to read stats..
Haha, yes average is a funny thing. Like the guy standing in a bucket of ice with his hair on fire. On average he feels perfect.
I'm interested in taking a look at your website to see if there is anything obvious that is making people leave.
Thank you Marcus, I always learn from you and you truly are helpful!... I think I understand you and was being tongue in cheek. I am sorry!♥
PJ~I'm not sure if it will even itself out because I'm not that far along in all of this. Are you using a landing page to collect visitor data? (e-mail addresses and names) I do know they are highly recommended to improve click through rate. Check this company out .....their blog info and newsletter are free....just sign up. You can also read the past blog articles for ideas and learning.

Best of luck... let me know if it helped.

It is down to 66 and my spam is down, as well, so, happy about that!! yay about that... It seems like bounce rate is on very much a variable. depending on daily values....
i am 47 and 57 on my others, so, that is a relief.
Omg how I hate Bounce rate ! It's been my nightmare too for quite some time now. I am about 79 now but it has been worse before. Sometimes up to 100 % !
Take a look at Jay's WAbinar if you haven't already I managed to get it a bit lower with the advice Jay is giving :) Ending Your Bounce Rate Nightmare Good luck!
Angélique
I noticed that my referral traffic was really high and the rest was not. I went to check out the referral traffic and it was spam. It can throw your bounce rate right out of kilter. The training mentioned below is very useful.
The best bounce rate I had in a 30 days interval was just under 80%.
Then I got a lot of referral spam which brought it up to over 90% again.
I don't think you need to worry too much about that.
If you notice a lot of referral traffic that has a high bounce rate, you should exclude it from your stats.
Here is a nice training about that: What is a Spam Referral Of course there are ways to improve your bounce rate, too: Ending Your Bounce Rate Nightmare Hope that helps a bit. :)
Moritz
Thank you Moritz, I had asked about spam earlier and I knew it was related but didn't know if I should be concerned about bounce rate as well. Everything is so intertwined...Thank you again very much!
If you compare bounce rate between new visitors and returning visitors you may find, as I have found, my bounce rate is 66%. However, new visitor bounce rate is 88-90% bounce rate. But, it's a whole lotta spam referral traffic.
Ed
Right! I notice that it varies quite a bit on the same page even depending what time you view it.

On my sumoMe analytics page I have two very odd sites coming up in my top referrals list
santasgifts.ml
rusexy.xyz
Most of my other pages stay on my website but not t
Spam referral has been a real pain of late wished google would do something about it, I have tried filters, bad bot blocker even though it does not mess with your site, it totally messes your analytics and the bounce rate is silly so I made notes on my analytics and sent information to google as it worries me that it can affect how google views us and lose rankings or worse still sandbox me
Bummer this is ridiculous.. I saw how bad it made my bounce right.. Let me know if figure out something..
I have recently had a problem with referral spam too and I received the same links for answers. It was reassuring to know that they are not dangerous, however much they mess up your analytics!
they are kind of dangerous - they are logged by google - so google sees your high bounce rate - this can lower your rankings (not confirmed - just a speculation) especially if they are 80% of your traffic, and they can easily stack to hundreds of hits/day
these are spam sites and they create spam referral traffic, it causes high bounce rate in analytics.
You can block it and filter them out from google analytics. but it needs some tech skills...
And it is never ending battle
check this info : List of live referral spam - let's ban those spammy bots or Stop Spam Referrals from Wrecking Your Analytics or check out botblocker plugin
Thank you, my dear Mark! :) I am working on not doing that, but, you never know... God's grace.... ♥! pJ
I am so sorry I can not help you my dear friend! I hope some can help you to fix this challenge!
Sheila :)
I read two tutorials and am happy to say it is not an issue.. before I got too concerned I said I will just wait until the answers came in and went on to something else... Yay!! thank you Sheila, ♥pJ
A wild guess but sounds like somebody has hacked your page by the looks of those names but not sure how to get rid of them.
Tom, it is only referral spam=bot traffic and it will not hurt our pages only our analytics readings... Pj has a great tutorial on it as does Shoofar... List of live referral spam - let's ban those spammy bots Stop Spam Referrals from Wrecking Your Analytics
