Preparation 2

Create a File name in MS Word

Most of the procedures from above are similar I will still include the images for easier reference.

Open you’re MS Word in case you close it already and a blank document will appear.

From here you will click on File then Save as

Now you have MS Word open to create a folder you will click File>then New then (normally the new document is already highlighted) if not click new document> then on the far right under blank Document will be the word Create click on this.

You’re new page will open up as before with the same image.

Click on File.

Now from here you will then create your file.

Click Save As

Now at the bottom is where you will give your filename instead of the default one.

Let say you are ready to do an About Me Page.

You could call give it a complicated name lets say About me.doc or .docx depending on the version you have mine is 2010.

Now type the new file name as shown below and before you click save first click your Folder file above here it is Successfulaffiliateru click on the folder name once this is done then click save.

Your file has no been saved under the name of (About Me) which is now placed under the folder Successfulaffiliateru (or your website name).

So if you now click the folder you will also see you file name either under the folder as a drop down menu or on the side as per the image.

So now you have learned how to create a Folder as well as a File plus where to place you’re File. Don’t forget to keep saving regularly it is very important you get into this habit.

All you need to do now is when ready open up the folder then The About me file and start creating the content. Don’t forget to save regularly did I say that already?

Word can do this automatically normally even 10 mins or so if it has been set up but never rely or have the attitude or this will save it for me.

Save it yourself maybe 2 or 3 paragraphs at a time. Don’t talk a risk of losing all your hard work for an assumption that all will do this by default.

Now yes you can create your content in WordPress do all you’re setting up within there and also save your pages as well. You can also do an export under the tools in your dashboard and this can also be saved into your word. By all means make sure you also saved your work within WordPress as well.

The main reason we are talking about creating your work in MS Word or Mac if you use that.

1)You have a backup should your website go down for whatever reason.

2)If you can’t log into your website and want to create pages or posts or even make adjustment to your site you can always work offline from MS Word and when the website is back you can transfer your work over later.

3)You might have made changes but now your may have left something out as you have not back up you have to remember how you recreated that particular page. What happens if your original work was months ago and you changed it now you have lost all that work ages ago.

4)You may have accidently delated the page of parts of the work. Again no backup saved means you may have to re-create all again.

5)Some thing else went wrong you have a wrong setting that has allowed someone to get in what happens if they delete you work before you find out.

So make sure you have a back up of all your original work elsewhere and not just on WordPress.

If will save you a lot of headaches and time in the long run.
