I have a pair of websites hosted with other companies. I intend to keep them on those platforms at the moment, but I would like to be able to use the SiteComments feature on them.
As Lemark says, you can't, but you can use the give and take comment thread. Kyle did say this would eventually be phased out, but you can take advantage of it while it's still active. :) Need website comments? the give and take comment thread
A short answer would be - you can't. At least not through the SiteComments platform.
Why? Because SiteComments are posting in your name and need to know your credentials. And these are know only inside the WA system. Which is good for many reasons :)
A long answer? Well, you could manually emulate SiteComments and ask people through your blog to comment on your posts. But I am not certain if this is within the WA rules...
SiteComments is using gravatar, which is a public platform, Gravatar integration would be no problem.
Gravatar is just a side effect of using one of your emails which are registered with it. I am talking about the admin username and password stored within WA for the site hosted on WA.
HMMMM wish I could help, that's most likely gonna be something Kyle or Carson will have to help with.

I recently wrote a blog post talking about my experience
I work with two screens when doing blogs and posts, the blog or post page and Jaaxy. This way when stray thoughts about my topic swim through my brain I can quickly check them out as keywords. It's harder to do keywords smoothly when the topic is complete.
Trust me, I miss being able to work like that. I'm now limited to my 12" laptop screen and keeping the tens or hundreds of windows organized is amazingly difficult.
Personally, if it's that much trouble to use a certain KW or KW phrase, I'd change the direction of the post or find better keywords that don't appear as if you stuffed them in for SEO. Just my take on it. Alanna
As long as you get the yellow OK SEO button, and as long as that's not the norm, most of the time your posts and pages are in the green, you are probably better off going with an occasional yellow than "forcing" the keywords into your posts.
Are you selecting a "Focus Keyword"? and making sure the focus keyword is at least in the post url, the title, the content, meta description, etc.?
That's just it, trying to write an article around a specific long tailed keyword didn't exactly get my creative juice flowing (i don't think i'm quite proficient at keyword research yet), and at one point decided to just finish the post as it came to me and try to wrap some SEO around it, but I didn't really find a good long tailed keyword to fit it, so my focus keyword for that article is basically "stress health effects".
Thing is, the SEO plugin doesn't really approve of it.
Dear old silly (!) were do you find the OK SEO button. I tried the search but obviously it 1) isn't there, or 2) I am using the wrong 'keywords'.
do you have WordPress SEO (by Yoast) plugin installed? If not, install that, and then you will be able to utilize the SEO OK feature in your post and page editor, as explained in this training I did: How to Make Sure Your Post is SEO'd Well
Great thanks. I have the SEO as done by Kyle in the early training. Now I will go to this training.
I tried this and left my all in one seo alone. So I ended up with more columns and couldn't even read some headings. The SEO Check was there but apparently I don't have a focussed keyword. Where do these go. And finally there seems to be a lot of fill in spaces on this so how did you go about installing it correctly. Also once I had it in I got the One-in-all SEO import settings. I already have the settings. Can you help unravel this puzzle.
Did you read and follow the instructions in the training, the link I gave you? It is all explained in there, where to select your focus keyword, and where all to make sure in your post/page that the keyword is included.
Yes and I understand that part. What I am having trouble with is WordPress SEO (by Yoast) plugin.

How important is it to follow established 'seo' indications?
