Hi everyone!

I have created a website about guitar capos ( Thats a little devices that allows you to shorten the strings to play in different pitches)

You have to ask them if this is allowed, some are ok with it, some don't allow this

Hi - as regards Amazon, they supply you with one specific image for the product. You can't select your own from the others on the product page. Other programs will have their own terms and conditions.

If you are helping a company as an affiliate I am sure they will be ok if you screenshot the items and add these as images'

I use FireShot and you can add it as an extension to your browser'

I hope this helps

You could also email the company and ask them

Vicki

thanks so much for your help! xx

Hi - you may wish to read Kyle's blog on the latest Google update.

Actually, Google is quite good at filtering content nowadays. To be exact, it means that Google can filter out so-called "filler content" that only serves to increase the word count.

If you add such filler content, Google might rate your article as a 500 words post - even though you've written 1'500+.

So while it is true that longer content ranks better, it only ranks better if it is also relevant to the topic. Adding filler content, just for lengths sake, doesn't work - and it will work even less as the Google algorithm improves every year.

It is perfectly fine to have a short post - as long as it answers the topic. What's important is that you try to offer the most in-depth content.

Now, if you notice that all your posts are under 1'000 words, you should reconsider how you approach your post topics. Can you maybe take this topic, but look at it from a different angle that adds more value to the reader? A way where you can write more content?

I don't mean adding filler content. I mean going really deep into keyword research, and finding the ones that deserve a long, in-depth article of 1500, 2500 or even 3500 words.
