Hi everyone, I recieved a few email notifications over the last couple of days that I have no idea about, maybe someone can shed some light.
It says "new user registratio
I don't know much about "new user registrations on your site" message - other than what others have posted. I am thinking someone is trying to hack into your site. I would follow the advice and check your settings, but I might also let site support know... I hope that we don't have people trying to hack into our sites here on WA. BUT there CAN sometimes be "a bad egg" in the carton - so to speak.
Thank you liz, yes I was thinking the same thing but I wasn't sure.
I will go and delete now.
Cheers!
Disable user registration on your site and then go to users and remove those that you didn’t add yourself.
in your wordpress dashboard go to settings general and untick the box allowing registration - then delete the users you have not added.
good luck

there is a problem with some plugins that allow bots to add users to sites.
with the box unticked you are ok.
so a little cleanup and you will be good.

New user registration on my site?

Ok, hi again everyone. Here is a new question, how many posts can you do on your website before it becomes too slow? or does it not make a difference at all? How many photoes c
Google Page Speed Insights measures... (drumroll) ...Page Speed.
It doesn't measure your entire website it just measures one page at a time. All your website visitors just see one page at a time. So you just have to make sure that each individual page is optimized for fast loading.
Hi Marion, thank you so much for your comment.
Much appreciated. That was what I needed to hear.
You are a star, good luck.
Cheers!
Hi Shaun, at the point you are at I would think you are good to add several more posts maintaining an proper word count. Just keep an eye on your speeds if you are adding a lot of images.
Hi thanx Michael, yes I have made all my pictures quite small because it this particular niche there are a lot of pictures, but so far the speed seems to be holding up.
S would it be safe to assume that each post is responsible for its own speed? 50 posts do not affect the speed because only one is opened at a time?
Hi,
In terms of speed, there are plugins that ensure that you are using proper sizes to make your site fast. I use the Ewwww Image Optimizer. The plugin will show whether your images are scaled properly or not.
As for the size of my website, I only have about 32 posts with 1200+ words with about 3 to 5 images in each one.
I think the speed is also dependent on the theme you are using. Some themes are already optimized while others are a bit slow.
If you go to PageSpeedInsight by Google, it will give you a detailed report which part of your sites are slow and will give you suggested solutions to fix the problem.
Regards,
JG
Thank you John, most appreciated.
I will be sure to check it out.
Maybe I don't know exactly how Google works and what their requirements are but I will go and look up page speed insight and see what it has to offer.
Cheers!

Hi everyone, I coppied the adsense code into my header 3 days ago and still no Google ad.
Am I missing something here? How can I fix it?
All feedback will be apprec
Hi - the initial piece of code just allows Google to look at your site to see if it is suitable. You have not been accepted yet. You will get an email with the decision.
Interesting question, I am sorry that I could be of no help but, I am interested in what others have to say. How much traffic does a website need to apply for Google Ads?
If training is followed (an assumption) level 3 lesson 7 is when we add AdSense, by then I had more then 10 posts in my site. That's probably closest an answer I could think of.
Oh okay, no I missed that one some kind of way. Thank you, for your response. I went through the training, but, I think I decided against it at that time due to not wanting to get denied and accidentally forgot about Google Adsense. I will need to go back to that training, thank you so much for your help!
Yes, also just remembered, we need to have an established website full of quality content. They look at that too, to ensure that adding their adds will get seen by traffic.
Yes, i agree with snazzy, how old is your website? Traffic and age of your website might be considerations? If Google have already agreed your site, i wouldn't worry about it
I had to wait for two weeks before they added anything...it's a patience game. I think they analyze your site first for matching ads and how it will fit, well my theory anyway. See what others say.

My plugin list:
1. Ad inserter 2. All in one seo 3. Classic editor 4. Ebay feeds for wordpress 5. Ewwn image optimiser 6. Google xml sitemaps 7. Google translate 8.
Hi Shaun, plugins do make it easier in some applications. Some are necessary to make life easier.
I have to say I have not used some of the plugins you are using. But you need what will work to serve your best interests.
What is your site speed, because the more plugins you use, may affect your site speed.
Hi Michael, thank you for your response.
Yes, that is exactly why I posted this question.
I got the warning that too many plugs can slow u down
I'm not sure what my speed is or how to check it.
Shaun go to your website menu, click on view my websites and click in site details for the health of your website and you will see the different percentages.
Thank you Llaisaane, yes I have seen the percentages, that why I asked the question. Everything is 100% except that.
That is why my plugs are concerning me, but I don't know if I will be as productive without them.
Hi Shaun, are your site speeds the same for all your posts.
Sight Speed Insights should be a 100 or close to for both network and mobile speeds.
Hi Michael, please explain to me how I check the speeds? I have no idea, all I know is that my plugin rate is sitting at 10%
Hi Shaun, like Snazzy commented. When you go to your WA page where you see all the training, website content etcetera..... Go to Websites then website manager where you see the options of refresh login and so on at the far right within that section you will see Details, click on it and in a few seconds you scroll down and you will see your web page insights and in this area you will see your web speeds for your posts. If you haven't refreshed them click on the G at the end of each post, it flips to another page where google will do a analysis on the page you selected. there you will be able to check your network speeds and your mobile speeds. then go to the top of the page close that window and you will be brought back to your WA page. There will be a little arrow with some content written above just scroll over to where it says refresh and you will get both your speed for mobile and network. I just hope that answer related to your question. All the best
Shaun I only use plugins that are going to be really useful or I absolutely need it, so that I can stay between 90-100% only because it affects the speed of your site when people read them. I had to deactivate or delete ones I didn't need. if you use a new plugin then deactivate another which is what I do.
