I see some sites where the sidebar shows on the home page for instance, but not on posts or other pages...how do I go about accomplishing this?

Some themes will have different page templates for Posts. The one you want is probably Full Width. You can find these settings in your Post editor (where you write your content).

use a page instead of a post. some themes also allow you to choose a full width layout which would achieve the same

Thank you very much! I'll give it a try!

I'm promoting 2 amazon books in my sidebar, and I want them side by side. I put the codes in the same widget block, but one is a little lower than the other. I would like for t

Thanks guys, I'll give it a try.

Good evening to you Kay, I tried that before, but I had linked the Amazon book within my post that I wrote. I actually wanted to have two ads, side by side, just as you described. Amazon links can be manipulate a little. It will be necessary for you to manipulate the coding of the link.
I am speaking of back when I was an Amazon Associate. My state of Louisiana decided to tax any affiliate commissions, so Amazon closed my account. If these links have changed (which is very unlikely), then I would suggest you have two separate links, one link per window. This way your spacing will not be an issue.
Good question. I hope I was able to help you.

Hi Kay!
I was looking at your site and if you edit your widget in text mode, I think if you place your cursor after the first </iframe> tag and press the delete key so that the next <iframe> tag is right after it (ie. </iframe><frame>) it should align them together side by side.
Hope this helps!

Thank you CompsoI99, this worked only after I checked the "automatically add paragraph" box at the bottom of the widget. It's just perfect now!

Glad to hear you got it sorted out Kay!

I have my blog posts under my HOME tab. I don't want my list of blog posts to show in a dropdown, but I want the summary of my blogs to show when HOME is clicked, not the whole

Hey Kay, it also could be your theme that does't allow your blogs to show as a summary. You may have to select another theme if what Jueyo suggest doesn't work.

I have been using tags but I don't like how they are listed on my page. But if they help with SEO ok...should I always use tags?

Here is great training on how to properly use tags!

Thanks Evelyn, very good info!

You're very welcome!

It's a good idea to have them, they work like keywords really use them wisely.. :0) bea

Tags also help visitors search your site easier, so this makes them god for navigation :)

I dislike them as well. But you can get ranked through tags, so better add them.

Is it a good idea to post to my site daily or should I only post a couple of times a week?

Hey Kay, there is nothing wrong with posting everyday, I find that hard though because everyday has it's obstetrical. If you can post daily that's awesome.

Thanks guys, great advice and thank you for pointing me to the Keyword info JewelCarol. Such value!

Hey Kay, you are most welcome! Have an awesome day. :))

yes there is such a thing. Although Google likes new and fresh content, they also don't like it when you make a lot of posts at one time. A new post daily is fine, though.

I don't think so, but preferably one keyword per post or page, for a start, this may help you :

In my opinion, it isn't likely that you will be able to post quality content every day forever, sometimes life get's in the way so, you may want to write every day if you can but publish about 2 or 3 times a week, keeping some in reserve for the times when you can't write.
That way, you will always be publishing on a consistent basis
