I need to Move my Website from WA to Namecheap...How should able to do that??

Why would you want to do that? hosting is free at WA. Go in reverse of what you did when you moved the site to WA!

Not really "free" You still have to pay the large (for me) Premium fee.

Log in to your Namecheap.com account - i.e. if you bought your domain at Namecheap.com . Go to 'manage transfer' and you see your name servers. Just change it to NS1. NAMECHEAP.COM/NS2. NAMECHEAP.COM. They will advise you of the change.

Hi, Sharonn! Rather than comment on "how-to" make your change ...let me just say that Devie down below here has it RIGHT. If you follow her steps both at WA to 'export' and at Namecheap" to "import" but after BACKING UP AS DEVIE says, there should be NO difficulty. Good luck!

But why you would like to move from WA ?

For me it would be $$$. With our dismal 10:1 exchange rate I'm eventually going to have to opt out of training. However if WA just offers the hosting at a reasonable rate I may still stay as free member and pay for the hosting.

In the left navigation of wordpress, click Tools, then click Export, then choose what to export, and click "Download Export File". In new hosting, you choose import file for file you downloaded from export file. Usually I do all. I made backup at wordpress navigation, I made backup from FTP, and I made backup from FileManager if WA has control panel.

How do I control my site backing up to dropbox, ie how do I link the plugin to my dropbox account?

or to backup your website, you can use navigation at wordpress

Then change Nameserver to new hosting. But backup your website first, using FTP

Login to website where you bought domain

What if you bought the website through wealthy affiliate? Are you able to move everything over if the fees just happen to be too much to handle? I want to make sure I have flexibility down the road if I choose before I get started.

I have a doubt about single page website ranking on Google,some of the guys told me that single page website do not rank on Google but some other guys told me that only many pag

Very informative...as is everything at WA

Interesting discussion thread, Thanks for asking the question.

I also agree that a single page website can get good ranking on Google but it will not stay there for a long time. That's why our focus should be on creating rich content website that can stay in search engines for years to make steady income.

single page niche keyword focused sites do rank with Google. I have a couple from my Google sniper training that do. However, they do not offer the long term income a properly built site does

Yes, I was wondering how a single page site could remain highly ranked with no fresh content being added.

What is Google sniper training

I looked at a couple of sites which claimed you can earn $15k a month :-\

It would be harder to get a single page website ranked but not impossible. It used to be that you could buy an exact match domain name, put up a blank wordpress site and see it ranked in the search engines.

That is not likely to happen anymore because the search engines do look for content and how relevant that content is to the keyword searched. A single page on a larger site can rank #1 for a keyword that has good relevant content.

That is even if the rest of the site does not rank. The more content you have on your site the more likely you are to rank.

A single page can very well rank in google if it has some content. But if it is only a landing or squeeze page with a header, some text, an image and an opt-in form, it will surely not rank on premium pages.
Another thing, @PhyllisE1, you never can have enough or too much pages on your website. I know some very successful IM websites having more than 1,000 posts.

I saw some Internet marketers earn thousands of dollars with single page website!!!

Sharonn,

They can make thousands of dollars with a single page website(landing page) but that page must have very good and compelling copy(content) to rank on the search engines or you could go the PPC route and spend thousands to make thousands.

When?

I didn't say that you can't make money with a squeeze page, but you have to invest in a lot of paid ppc campaigns, but organic traffic you won't get.

Good discussion started here. It was something I didn't think about and I'm betting I'm not the only one.

Thank you Sharonn. I needed to know this. I was concerned that I have too many pages on my site. You cleared that up. Bless you!!!

You can never have too many pages

Hello Sharon,

A single page can rank on page 1 in Google however it would be very difficult or lucky to do so.

The more pages you have on a site the better chance you have in getting ranked highly on one or several pages

It is a QUALITY and NUMBERS game.

Hey Sharonn,

It can do if there is no competition at all.

Thanks
Biren

Probably, if there is no competition, there is no traffic.

Yes, if there is no traffic, what is the use of having a high ranking page?

I want know your money making experience so I can learn from you.

Sharonn, looking at your activity level I can't imagine you are asking that question for yourself,so for whoever it is for I want to thank you for helping others.How soon can someone get a blog out & monetized or the same with a website?Depends on the person & how badly they want it.Within just a few hours to days,if we use the wealth of experience,knowledge,& awesome marketing strategies it can be done.NOT instant wealth,but income nonetheless,wealth takes time to build,but it will happen with Drive,Determination, & Persistance. Just DON'T give up. I wish you the Best JonW

My money making experience was a rough one at first. But that's because it was my mindset. The most important part of your success is your mind. Once I started making money, it seemed impossible not to.

So most important,
1. Make a goal, anything specific. Mine was to pull a check out of my mailbox from working online. Didn't care the size.
2. Make a plan or marketing system that will leads to that goal. If you don't know how, look around here. There's plenty of plans all over.
3. Take action. Complete at least one successful step toward your goal everyday by following the plan. EVERYDAY...just remember rest is part of the plan.

Never fear competition or failure. It's impossible to fail if you complete steps, eventually you will reach the last and final step to your goal.

Watch this 30 minute video on getting in the right mindset. It has a 30 day challenge at the end that I practice and it's amazing how it can effect your surrounding. http://youtu.be/uaHDCcUcmc0

It can change your life...just saying.

Nice job, John! It would be great if every person could watch that video and take the action steps. What a wonderful life if would be ... if only ... God Bless! ~Cathy

Excellent advice thank you

I think that the training that is offered at WA is the best you'll find online anywhere however I don't believe that one cannot make money online while you acquire that knowledge base.

Opportunities to online success are growing much faster than ever before making it difficult for any one person to know what is available out there. Given my time constraints, because I also have a job, it would take me months to acquire the necessary skills to build a business from ground floor.

I should be discouraged right? Well, I'm not because I'm convinced that an online business is the way towards my financial freedom. Out of respect of WA rules, I won't say much more but do your research and you'll find opportunities that can make your path to online success less onerous. Learning the nuts and bolts of how it can be done, WA is ideal.

oh yeah, I forgot this. I'm a newbie and I'll be leaving my time consuming job by this end of next month.

Love this

Really? Tell me more...

Ron this is true. Like you I also have a full time job so I'm going through the training and taking my time. I've been with WA since may and I've gotten quite a lot of referrals and a few have went premium and I've gotten most just off of sharing the value and education of WA on facebook and google plus.

You can earn while you learn which is what I'm doing. I also share the training and some video's and blogs within WA which is what Kyle and Carson encourage, which is why you see a get link button beside every piece of content, beside every profile, and video.

Sharing what you learn in here and the fact people can start with a free account is really valuable. Not to mention the thousands of affiliate programs you can sign up for that's free and can make websites for them all. I'm in it for the long haul because I can see why they named it Wealthy Affiliate. It's about your long term success on the internet.

Cool! Is that due to online success?

Yes, I'm not where I want to be yet but I'm on my way. I'm giving myself 6 months to make 10k/mth but I'm shooting for an earlier date. It's going to fun however it turns out.

I agree with everyone. Making money with your websites via traffic will take some time which will vary from person to person. I've only made a couple of sales through my website but I also promote wealthy affiliate through social media and other ways and I'm making money that way also. This is not a way to get rich quick scheme, it's gonna take some work and effort.

Not sure that you can learn from someone else's money making experience, but you can learn from the training and following it in your own time and at your own pace

I've been a member since May 29th and I'm making money.

I think you got your answer. Without trying to sound like a lawyer, it depends. There are many variables at play. People come in with different levels of experience, different amounts of energy output, different amounts of time they can allocate, etc. That being said, some beginners have made money very quickly but then others will take a while. I know that's not what you wanted to hear but as others have said do the training step by step. It's can take less time to build than a brick and mortar business.

It's all in the mindset.

Leo is correct. When you say "new member" I assume you want to know how long it takes before seeing monetary rewards. That depends and is difficult to answer. I know of some that started making some money after 2-3 months and others made their first dime after 6 months.

However, it's important to follow the training precisely and success will come.
John

I agree with leoemery. It takes time implement the training. This is basically YEARS of training compiled into a few short months. Making money is a bi-product of sharing good information.

There a many members making money.

Simply follow the training and you'll be following in the same footsteps of these members.

And when you have questions simply jump into chat, or post a blog or head to a specific classroom and start a discussion

Absolutely the only stupid question is the one you won't ask the answer to

I want to add contact me form to my Blog...

Question should I download Contact form 7. So, I can add it to my blog page.

Yes, Contact form 7 is very good

Seems the vote is pretty unanimous! :)

I would recommend contact form 7

Yes I agree Bill form 7

Well done, guys!

I agree with MIsspressy, the "Contact Form 7" plugin looks good and is easy to install and use. Cindy

Dashboard - Pages - Add New - Publish
Then
Dashboard - Appearance - Menu
Once that is setup, find whichever contact form plugin you prefer, I use contact form 7, install it and then copy the short code that the form will give you into the contact page you just created, publish, and voila!

On Plugins I clicked add new and on the search box I typed contact form. I chose contact form 7 and installed and activated. Copied the HTML code and pasted it in my contact me page. You must have created your contact me page first with a typed message "Ask A Question or Comment".
I hope this helps.

Under the 'plugins' section on the left menu, click 'add new' and in the search form enter "contact form." Choose one you like.

Through the PPC,can I promote WA?

Hi Sharonn,
I found that unless you are promoting your own product or service it can be extremely hard and expensive,

if you intend to redirect visitors from your site to WA you must have good and useful content on your page and you should disguise all your links.

If you don't Google will will punish you.

Rusty

Thanks dude!

Thank you for all of your wonderful Advice!

I'm staying away!!!

Jazmin's right, it's a gamble. I tried it once before I knew much about what I was doing and lost money. I got out before it got too bad. Look for training. It's here. If you feel you have the right keywords and some cash to support it, it's worth a try.

Take a look the ppc training in affiliate bootcamp.

I don't know much about this stuff but I caught the back end of a discussion on BBC Radio 4 last night and apparently quite a high percentage of the clicks aren't even done by a human - so I dunno. :)

I think it sounds entirely too expensive for a small time entrepreneur. Seems mostly for the big guys, cause there could be more costs attached to it when following up with the leads generated.

I had to talk to my dad about ppc cause Ive never tried it, But he said its like a gamble, you could win or you could loose. In his case he lost, A LOT! so he stays away from it. Hope this helps a little:)

Thank you Jazminf :)

you very welcome wish i could have been more helpful.

I agree with MisterWailor, but on the flip side the keyword tool can possibly suggest a set of cheaper keywords also. It's a choice and unfortunatly noone knows your situation better than yourself and it would be all about how much you are willing to spend.

Yes, you can but it will be expensive. You could make a lot, but same you can lose a lot. Like Google Adwords is about $1 a click. Have fun.
