Please leave your url so we can take a look...thank you! I know you wrote a book...right? Perhaps, I can offer some advice for your current website.
That would be great upsgirl. You have been very helpful and continue to be. I really appreciate it. www.happylivingassisted.com
Any advice to improve my website is valued
Thanks! I try! Hey, please change ADMIN to your NAME. Also, I know you are working on filling in content but you could easily add Amazon books and audio. A lot of both items are being sold daily through Amazon! For now, just do that. I like the Theme. You need an image instead of the green square though! I am turning in for the night but I will take a look tomorrow...or for me, in a few hours...LOL!
Thanks upsgirl. You give me hope and you are my shining protector. Have a great night and looking forward to more of your comments.
The best advice is to continue to go through the training. You'll get to monetizing your site as you continue. It's easy to rush into "monetizing" before you site is complete enough to actually draw in traffic (other than WA member comments). You'll get there. Just keep going with the lessons.
The advice given is exactly what you need to do....what is it you want to 'make money' with? This is entirely up to you; then you can research or ask further which ways you could go about it.
I'm guessing you haven't got to the analytics part yet in the training, here's a link to the specific page that shows how to create one and add it to your site. It shows your traffic and other features. https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/wa-affiliate-bootcamp-giving-your-site-social-value-phase-3/adding-google-analytics-to-your-site

I am curious as well, have you done the Google Analytics training. That is where all this info is that you are asking about. :))

I am very new to how to build websites and at the moment I am frustrated with the theme that I have. It is called divi theme suggested to me by a friend. Please check my site an
To me your theme looks ok and would sit your niche very well if you could get help in customizing it further as you say.
As I am not yet conversant either, I think there are more resourceful people available here at WA who will do a better job and I will keenly be on the lookout as well.
You posts are very interesting though.
Good Luck
If you are not happy with your theme, please change it in the early stages so you get a better feel how to work within it......it seems awfully hard to read, the print is small and almost 'gray'...when you click on the button 'enter' nothing happens....given your audience seems you would like something bright, cheery, easy to read and follow....?????
You're most welcome; my baby sister would have loved a site like this! She passed this past December unexpectedly....one of the things we planned was a joint effort online....she was bed/wheelchair-bound...long painful story I won't go into....I'm trying to 'make it' for BOTH of us and my comment about your site was based on how Bonnie would have seen it....I could almost hear her while I looked at your site....so please, no offense intended, I only tried to see it as others would....the space such persons are in is gloomy enough...show them the light and way up and out of misery.....bless you...

Not sure, but what sounds cool is a free eBook that intros your new book without giving the details away of course...write about why you decided to write the book and what you went through writing it...how you found time to write it...just throwing out some ideas...ya, nay..its all good. Sounds great though and wish you success. :))
Thanks kholmes, I could perhaps write a short free ebook based on my book. It is good to hear from you all with different ideas. Much appreciated
Some people just like something fresh and new to read, straight from the horses mouth...not bs..Lol...
I did observe when I was in Reddit posting a unique and strange post that they like that for the their site...they don't want things that have been done over and over again...in other words, write something unique and different to catch attention, at least to post on their site.
My story is not made up, it is simply me sharing what I have been through, learnt and hopefully use to my advantage
I wasn't saying it was made up, just put a unique spin on it..surely you have something that you have not shared in your book that would be different is all I was saying.
Is your website related to your book title? Unfortunately, you cannot advertise here as we are a SPAM FREE COMMUNITY! I would definitely insert an Amazon ad once you have access to your BOO (Amazon barcode).

Put Google Adsense on your site. That's where I make money right now, through Adsense. Amazon commissions are tiny and on books not much. You might want to think about promoting other things relevant to your niche, too.
I found this training in the help bar up above. You can search out any subject. Mine was installed for me by someone else prior to WA. Try this. Looks pretty good. https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/how-to-easily-add-google-adsense-to-your-website-in-3-steps
Hi, might be worth looking for some videos and even seminars and see if you can promote that too. I will let you know if I come across any seminars.
Text books and educational books can cost hundreds of dollars. That is why I check E
bay and Amazon and Alibris books first. They are usually a fraction of the publisher cost.
Someone mentioned that books don't cost much, so the commissions will always be low. I was replying to that comment. Sorry.

I have gone to plugins and did a search for social plugins but nothing came up. Can anyone assist me in setting up a link to my facebook page from my website?
Much appreci
Yes, Carla has got it. We can add social media button via adding a plugin to our word press site. When you follow the training here at WA you will learn all about adding them. You can either upload or add new in the plugin section of your word press dashboard. You can add the one Kyle recommends in the training or you can search for one you like.
Plugins are created by independent companies, so you find them by searching keywords in Google (best social plugin for word press) and follow the site installation guide; or the 'search tool' in add new plugin section of your word press dash board. Wishing you great success. :)))
Look for social sharing buttons in the plug-ins menu. There are gazillions of them. I use a plug-in called Super Socializer. This is the one Kyle recommends in the training: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/setting-up-social-plugins-on-your-website-tweet-like-google-1-and-share
