Hello WA team,

You simply link to CJ vendors. They handle the cost including taxes. Your only requirement might be from your profits which you would include on your standard Australian income tax forms.

Can I have assistance with taxation on commission junction?

I am wanting to look at improving my website and I notice Wealthy Affiliate helps you host the Word Press site. However is there a cPanel component to WA? If no

No cPanel at WA but there is FTP. If you really need cPanel hosting Private Message me for my HostGator affiliate link. ~Marion

there is no CPANEL here at WA and no way of accessing it as far as I know.

Is there 'cpanel' technology to enhance websites on wa?

I am trying to make my first sale. I have two websites I am currently working on and would appreciate some feedback on what I could do better.

OK, I looked at you Green Elation site. One thing I note is that only one of your blog posts is promoting any product. I'm new at this but it seems to me that every blog post should encourage the reader to buy, or at least check out, your products. Furthermore, you link to your products page is very small and unobtrusive. There is nothing to draw the readers attention to it and make him want to check it out. On your products page you only have two products and one affiliate link and absolutely nothing to tell your readers why they should click on these.
I would suggest adding more products, a lot more. Get an Amazon affiliate link. Put the link to your products page in every blog post. Use every blog post to encourage the reader to buy something. Anyone who came across your website and did not know you were in business probably could not tell from what you have up.
Hope this helps, It certainly made me think about what I need to do for my own website,
Michael Montagne

Also, on your products page, give short descriptions of the products, encouraging the customer to buy them.

Thank you so much MMontagne. That is great advice.

Well, I hope so. It's worth at least what you paid for it. Another thing you might do is go look at other WA member's sites. See what they are doing and blatantly steal their ideas. ;-) Not the content of course, just the organization and salesmanship.

I checked your products page and it`s almost empty,what will a visitor but if there is nothing on offer in the first place?
I`d suggest more products

Thanks roamy. In the process... I was more looking at making money from affiliate links. But Products is a work in progress

Hi Team,

I was wondering if someone could help me?

I have just purchased two new domains from Namecheap.com and when I try and create a website via the Build your W

Has the DNS on your domains been updated already?

Namecheap has directions on how to update their DNS directly on their website.

https://www.namecheap.com/support/knowledgebase/article.aspx/1056/2202/demo-how-to-change-dns-servers-for-a-domain

Remember, you are updating your nameservers to that of WA.

ns1.mywahosting.com
ns2.mywahosting.com

Upon updating these, you should be able to build your website within 12 hours, often times far quicker (within 10 minutes or so typically).

Let us know if you have any further issues.

Thanks Kyle, It seems that was it. I managed to do this.
The only issue now is my website says it has no "Google Index". I have four websites on WA and this is the only one saying No to "Google Index".

Should I be concerned with this?

Did you change the name servers at Namecheap? Sometimes it takes a while for that to propagate so you can create your website on WA. ~Marion

Thanks Marion. I think that was it.

You'll need to verify your site with Google, Yahoo/Bing. You must have done that for your other websites as you were going through the lessons. Also, you wouldn't have any content on the new one yet if you've just started it. You need content for Google to index it.

What it says, try again later, perhaps they are updating something right now. Try it in a couple of hours again, when it still is not working send in a support ticket

sorry - no.

Hi Team,

Can someone please explain what the 'Low Hanging Fruit' concept means in layman's terms?

Thank

It's the crumbs that fall to the floor from the master's table that still keep you fed...they may be small in return, but they sustain one's diet enough to keep the belly from growling!

It looks like sschmidt has it covered for you. ~Marion

Hi Tim,

Basically, when generating traffic, the "fruit" you are going after are keywords related to your niche.
It makes sense that the high traffic keywords are also the most competetive, so if you go after them, you have little to no chance of ranking under them.
The "low hanging fruit" are keywords related to your niche, that have low competition, but understandably also low traffic. But you will be able to rank under them and grab the little traffic that they hold. If you are consistent with writing content everyday, the little traffic adds up to big traffic.
Hope this answer helps!

Wow that makes sense thanks Matty!

Hi,
Easy pickings. In blogging terms, a keyword(s) that has a small but consistent number of searches against it. Jay did a good video tutorial on it under Live Video Classes a few weeks ago. also try this
