I have been wondering if It is acceptable to buid websites and host them here at WA for others that want a website but do not want to create it themselves. I have been thinking

Sarah, are you thinking to build their site as well as write content for the sites? Sounds like a good way to expand your business. Any idea how much would would charge for the service?pay

Not really sure what I will be charging yet Gordi or about the content, looks like I have a lot of research to do for this business idea :)

Keep me posted on your progress Sarah, as this is something I've been considering myself, ok?

Sarah…I see you have your answers below. Keep up the good work and let us know of your progress of getting off-line clients…(educational). Thanks for sharing.

If You want to build a website it is fine. If you do it for a client it should be fine If for some reason you decide to leave WA ---you would need to move the client s website then. As long as your here I think it is a good plan. If you need to know more about getting off-line clients let me know. There are many ways to do it and here at WA training on how to ---as well..

Hi Ed, I think Sarah and I need to know more about getting off-line clients, right Sarah?

I think it's going to be a good option for clients that want you to build and maintain their website but maybe not so good if they want full ownership of the site. I would then host it elsewhere for them and let them maintain it themselves. I will be going deeper into the training here so I understand all aspects before acquiring clients.

I think you won't face any problem in hosting sites as WA premium members. Whatever you create you have authority to sell that but all admin powers and ownership of all such site shall remain with you only. I hope you understand the difference.

I definitely agree, Vimal.

Hi Sarah, I am going to do this but I'd make it a point to put my WA banner on each of them because I think this is one way that I can get more referrals. Also, that is one reason why I think we, as premium members, are entitled to unlimited websites. Goodluck!

Thanks for your reply, It sounds like it could be a profitable business and I'm hoping to find some training inside WA that will help me get started with this niche, Good luck to you too :)

I agree, but of course, it comes with hard work because it's not easy to maintain a site, you know that. If I'll do it, I'd make 'allowing me to post my WA banner' as a pre-requisite. I think, completing all the courses here in WA is enough training to get you going, lol. Cheers!

WA Affiliate Program

Hi there, my question is that I have a referral who has set up their profile inside WA ( I helped her to do this) but I have not received a credit for this person. She joined a

Sarah…good information to know…thanks for sharing.

Same thing happened to me... their laptop but my IP address. I waited for a few weeks and had them go home, get on their desktop and create a new gmail account and it finally worked late last week... and I got the credit!

i sent Kyle a message and explained and he said it was fine and she is showing as my referral so i will get credit for her :)

The answer finally lies with Kyle & Carson I think.

yes i will explain this.to kyle or Carson :-)

If she did it from your computer you will not get credit for it I think there is a fails are to protect WA from fraud.

well she was using.her laptop but my internet connection Tommy and was jusy visiting
so was a good time to help her. when she signed up initially she was not at my house

As Tommy said you may have triggered an anti-fraud measure, if you were both on the same IP address, ie. wifi network, so I'd follow Chip's advice (@choppydo) below, and send a PM to Kyle or Carson asking them to check it manually for you. :) Rich.

So she has a profile picture up and an introduction?

yes she does and was with her on Friday while she set up her account

And got the original "invitation accepted" email? If so, you might want to take it up with Kyle or Carson. Could be some kind of error.

If I have a static homepage how can I get my blog posts to show on another page on the my site please?

It is resolved I think.

Thanks for bringing this up Sarah... actually answered a few questions for me!!!

Thanks to all of you for taking the time to help me out! Thanks to this I have now got the solution and have been able to put the blogroll on a different page named simply "Blog" got to love the awesome help and support here at WA :-)

Awesome. :)

Glad you got it worked out.

Yay for Sarah!

That's what I did. I just created a static page called My Blogs.

Hello Sarah !!
To do that go to Setttings » Reading and under the Front page displays option choose A static page. Below that choose the page to be used as the front page and the page for your blog posts.

Sarah…did you get your question answered below…let us know.

yes thanks i did and i posted a reply above to let people know

Different people are interpreting your question differently here. if you want different blog posts to show in different menus, you can follow what wheatstraw says. However, if you want your blogROLL to be somewhere other than your homepage, like say in one of your navigation menus, Settings>Reading is the solution.

This was the perfect solution Jeremy, I was actually helping my friend to do this on her existing WP site as she did not have anywhere to do blog posts. Her site was just pages. Thanks so much for your help :)

Hi Sarah - actually, Wordpress will only let you have one page of blog posts, but if your blog posts are categorized you can create top menu buttons which are your categories, so this pretty much accomplishes the same thing. It allows you to sort posts into different pages from the main top menu.

Go to Settings>Reading.

The easiest way is to place your blog post on a separate page; i.e. when you go to put a new one in, click "new page" instead of "new post".

I think selecting "new page" every time will keep adding pages to the website.

Search Engine Optimization
Updated

I wrote a post last night and used Fetch as Google this morning. Then I typed the keywords I used, which is also the title of my post into a Google Search bar and when I search

My Rank in WA what does that indicate?

Hi, this might answer your question: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/carson/blog/wa-member-rank-update-explained

What I have always done is make sure that I am not signed in to my Google account. I clear my history and then go into New Incognito Window and this has always given me accurate rankings on Google. If I still have a tinge of doubt I double check the rankings in Market Samurai as I don't have Jaaxy.Haven't heard of Fetch must check it out! Cheers

Hey Sarah, how do you Fetch as Google?

Hi you need to be in Google Webmaster Tools and then click Crawl on the left hand menu then select fetch as Google. I think this training Video will explain better than me https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/get-posts-pages-indexed-faster-in-google-with-webmaster-tools

Thanks Sarah. Yeah the training explains quite a bit. I guess its a useful tool for new posts to get rank.

I checked my pages on jaxy. They can't find anything? What have I done wrong?

You may not have done anything 'wrong' - pages don't always appear instantly. Sometimes it takes a little time.

Hi Judy, I have also a few pages on my website that are not found in the Jaxxy search yet. I think it will take time for them to move up due to high competition. I got very good results for my last post and I think that is because i chose a really low competition keyword and title. I'm going to stick with that method for my next few posts. Did you use the Fetch as Google trick to get your pages indexed?

With Jaaxy

Thanks Tommy I will give that a go right away

Awesome!! for my keyword ( which is a long tailed and low comp one ) Jaxxy says I am position 5 on page 1. whoohoo :)

You are very welcome

Authoring & Writing Content
Updated

I can't get the author to show on any of my pages is there a setting to change this please? This is my website so you can see what I mean, comments are showing but not the autho

If I am not mistaken what you are asking is about your authorship. If so your picture will not not show on your pages it will show up in Google search when someone searches for your keywords in your content writing. Which is called your meta tag for Google search engines.

Thanks Tommy, I have my authorship set up and in the Google snippet tool it looks right and says that it is set up for my site. There is just no mention of an author at the end of any of my posts for each page and I have looked for a setting to turn it on but can find nothing. I looked up this in WP support and a few people posting they have this prob with various themes, You can either add in some code or change theme so I am going to try changing the theme to see if it helps.
Thanks again for your help :)

i see what you mean now when I have time later I will look it up also and let you know

OK I found it as long as you do not customize your title you can add a tagline to the top of your page. first go to your dashboard click on the appearance go to your themes then click on the customize tab. there will be a window on the left side opening up and you can add your name were it says tagline if you want. I hope this was helpful.
Tommy

Hi sarah. Go to user and click. Three pop up user, new user and I think its users profile, click users profile and fill it out. Then dont forget to save. Hope this helps sarah. My battery is going down. I will catch up with you later when I get home x

Hi Judy, Thanks for your help but I have already set up a new user but it will not show as author and nor will the original admin. I think it might be a theme issue as have Googled it and I might have to add some extra code or something. Sounds complicated...I hope it isn't ! x
