I bought a number of domains early yesterday morning and they still say "Your domain is still being registered and will be ready soon". I'm a newbie, but I'm guessing it shoul

Hi Terri, sometimes there can be a lag, but usually, it is a straightforward process.

Check here to see if your domains have been registered they should appear here.

https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/websites/domains

If there an issue then create a support ticket, here.

https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/websites/support

I am assuming that you purchased the domains through WA?

If not then approach the support at your registrar.

Let us know how you get on.

Domain registration appears to be "stuck"?

Newbie here.....I bought a couple of domains from WA yesterday morning and when I go to Site Domains each domain says "Your domain is being registered and will be ready soon."

I agree with Vicki. I've registered 4 domains now and nine took longer then 10 minutes. Jim

Thanks for letting me know this Jim!! I’ll keep you posted on my progress!
Terri

Thanks Terri. It sounds strange to me and I'm sure site support will fix the error. They're a fantastic bunch of people.

Send a support ticket to site support because they should be good to use by now Terri
Or go to websites then build new with a domain you own and see if it works before you contact SS
Go well and build big
Vicki

Thank you so much for reaching out to me Vicki :)
I've been trying off and on all day to get this resolved but wasn't finding any help. I went to the Help Center and to Site Support....is that what you were recommending to me?
THANKS AGAIN!

I've only been active for about 24 hours and I'm both excited and overwhelmed! What advice would you offer someone who is just starting this journey with WA? What have you "lea

My number 1 would be to follow the training even if you think you know it. Don't go too fast and make sure you take it all in. There is a lot for a newbie to do but if you work through the tasks the way they are laid out you will be in a good place.

Derek

Excellent advise!! I’m currently waiting for my domain to be registered! Then I’m all in with the training!!

My advice would be to commit to a regular routine of when you will work on the training and your website. Even if that is a few hours a week it is better to start small than try to do too much at once. I tried to do too much and ended up burning myself out completely. Start with small manageable steps that you can commit to

I think this sounds like solid advice! I'm already burned out in my teaching job....I don't want that to happen in this new venture!!! THANKS!!!
Terri

Happy to help

Learned the hard way? Try “everything” on our own without asking someone else. For sure, many already have the answer.
Positive things not expected? Many WA members have made money when they least expected it...worth saying, after working on their blogs following the training.
Tom

Thanks Tom! In the short time I've been here, I can see there is a lot of support available. I will definitely be asking questions :)
Cheers to much success!

You're welcome Terri, anytime! and thanks for your message.

Hi Terri, and welcome to Wealthy Affiliate. Slow and steady is the key to success. Take your time deciding on your niche subject, and don't skip ahead in the training. If you complete each task as you are asked to do so, you will have built your website by the end of lesson 4.

Wishing you every success, Diane (in the UK)

Thanks Diane! My domains haven't registered yet :( so I'm getting ahead of myself in the training. I'll have to go back a second time and do everything with my own site! So excited! I'll be the "turtle" as slow and steady will likely win the race! Wishing you much success in your journey at WA!
Terri

I learned the hard way not to skip lessons because in one point I had to go back and actually finish them as I had a gap in learning.

Positive thing is that I saw how Google is ranking my posts, how I slowly and steady getting clicks from searches and several people joined WA because of what I wrote. That is a HUGE boost of positive energy for me.

That's so awesome to hear! Seeing your site(s) on Google has to be an amazing feeling! Wishing you continued success!! Thanks for sharing your experiences!
