I would never add a foreign language app to my site if I did not speak the language and could evaluate it thoroughly, but that's just me.
Mel,
Thanks for the tip. I was a little taken back by the foreign language myself, but I thought that we are so international with the internet as it is today. I checked the website associated with the email that I received and found that it is an app that guides tourist through Naples, Italy. The website is in English and Italian. The app is within my niche (my website is on traveling tips). Perhaps they may offer the promotion in English.
Bob
If you can trace it back to a legit site then it might be OK to allow them to advertise with you, but I'd insist on communication in English.
Mel,
Thanks again for your input. I still have the problem about what to charge and how I would set this up.
Bob
That I can't help you with. Were it me, I'd do research into how much PPM (Pay Per Million) ads are running for your niche, and charge them a similar rate.

I have used the comments section of WA and received a comment that has nothing to do with the topic, but instead is a critique of the blog. I appreciate the advice that was giv
Method 1, try to figure out who this is, and contact them here on WA, via PM, if possible.
-- Did this blog comment come in as a result of the "Community Feedback" app, here on WA?
Check your "Credits" link at the top to see if this might be the case, in case the person also posted "feedback". They might have been confused about the community comment vs community feedback options.

Method 2 is email. Commenters are suppose to add their email. This should be in your users section.
Other than that, you will need a specialized plugin.
Search wordpress.org/plugins.

Fran,
These are some great ideas. I always try to find the person in WA, but the name on the comment was not on the WA membership site. However, by tracing the Gravatar link to his website and then using the name of his website, I found him on WA. Quite a bit of detective work. Thanks for the help.
Bob
Wow, that is detective work! Good job.
Jovo has a great answer if you find them in the WA community credits area. It is highly likely that they were confused. ;)

You reject the comment and you will get your credits back after some time. People are not supposed to comment about the site in general, only about the content of the text.
.
To reject, you will have to write a few words why.
I didn't know that, Jovo. Such a nice feature, since no doubt more than one person has gotten confused between the two distinct choices. Thanks for the info! :)
--Fran
I have experienced it several times so it is sure the credits come back.
Carson also said this but I was skeptical in the beginning. So do not hesitate to reject if it is not a correct comment.

As my traffic is improving, I am drawing offers from other sites. One such offer was to write guest articles on my website. Does this help me or is it just something that may

Thanks for the links, Bert. I should have searched that before posting my question. I wil definitely read the training by PJ.
Yes, you'll have new content that you don't have to write. Be sure to review it before you post. Now, you will give up an external link to their website, but it's okay. Google likes to see these and many of your own articles should contain external links that would be helpful to your readers. I allow guest posting on my website and it Works! Just have some parameters in place for those that wish to guest post. I have a minimum of words allowed and it has to be related to my niche.
Thanks, PJ. The offer is related to my niche and I agree that I would want to see the article before I would post it to my site. I guess, being new to affiliate marketing, I was a little gun shy.
Totally understandable! I've been doing this a long time, but only started the Guest Posting thing about a year ago. I feel ya!

I have posted pages and posts on my website, but there are words that are hyphenated which I think looks bad. How can I remove these hyphens so that the whole word will appear
Hey Rob, This may be an artifact of your theme. If your theme has a settings page (you can look for it under the Appearance menu) it may be a setting. If it is not you may be out of luck unless you create a child theme and jam it out yourself. Here is forum entry that discusses what you may need to do.

Christian,
Thanks for the help. I did look up some solutions and found some great answers better than what I did before. I learned so much that I may post a training on this topic on the WA site. Thanks again.

I was trying to get a Gravatar account and had trouble, so I added other administrators to try to fix that. Now I deleted them in WordPress, but they still show up on my Login
This question can now be disregarded. For some reason (after about a week) they are gone now. Problem solved.
Change default user "Admin" in Wordpress Hope you can find the answer to your question from the link above.
Cheers
Thanks, queenofkings! I have already added a new administrative user and logged in as such. When I delete a user in WordPress, it is gone, but all admin users still show up on the WA login dropdown window. Every time that I try it, I get another user on my WA login dropdown window but still only have one user in WordPress after the deletes. I am hesitant to try it anymore for fear of having too many invalid users.
