What could be the reason why I would get a message that says this? Oops! This site doesnt have any images to Pin.
I have plenty of images on the site and I even went back
Hi Shawn. Do you mean, put it on my site? I have it on some posts, but it did not go to all. It is the button that is directly from the Pinterest site. Is there a better way so it goes right to ALL of the posts automatically? I saw it someplace, but I can't remember where.
It is a pin it button that goes on your browser. :)

install it on your browser and every time you want to pin something you have open click the button and a window wiol appear from pinterest
Hey Mark. I just got my answer from Angela. I tried it and it worked. I just changed the browser I was using from Firefox to Chrome.
Firefox for some reason, was not recognizing my images and it gave me the error message above. Problem solved though thanks to Angela. Good lesson for the future.
Thanks for the reply though.
Glad you got it sorted Zora.I use chrome because I think it is the best,it certainly is the most used between all the browsers.
I agree with you.I do not like internet explorer.I have used fire fox in the past and found it quite good.I loved all the different covers you can get,which reminds me I must change my cover on face book,it,s still a Christmas one at present.
One reason could be if it is an image you got from your affiliate. For example: If I go to amazon to get a product link to add to my page or post - I cannot pin it to pinterest.
If that is not the case for you then I am not sure what the issue might be.
Hi Angela. It is actually an image I have in my gallery from you tube. I used it before on another post and it worked.
ahh, ok. Sorry, not sure then. I have an old laptop and sometimes gives me fits on different things. Sometimes a solution is trying another browser or closing my site and open back up and try again. I have even had to go as far as restarting my PC. lol
I tried it yesterday and had the same result. I will take your advice and try a different browser. Thx Angela
Hi Angela, Thanks for the great advice. I was using Firefox and switched to Chrome and ....Wala! It worked.
Gosh these things are finicky. Go figure.
Thanks again. Blessings
Yay! lol glad it worked. Yes, if I didn't need my laptop, there are some days I want to throw it across the room!

Look at all the comments.
So many good things to try.
Read on folks and learn.
Always read the comments- you can always get something you can use or implement :)

Amazon cancelled my account because of no sales I guess. I am a little leery about Amazon now because of things that people have blogged in here anyway. I was researching online
here is a couple i found.
www.cduniverse.com
www.sitepoint.com
https://www.purecountrymusic.com/affiliate
https://www.cdbaby.biz/
https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/digital
Hope this helps..
Here is something that may work for you. These are digital downloads but that is the way the world is going. This would include all digital products including boos and music and more. https://www.apple.com/itunes/affiliates/
Good Luck.
Hey mama2. I just checked out the itunes resource. Very interesting. It's a little involved with all of the widgets and links, but I think I can play around with it.
I did not know itunes had an affiliate program. It did not come up in my search.
Thanks you so much
oops… boos=books. Could be a nice resource to ad to your arsenal of programs. Best to you.
Thanks Steveo. That is exactly what I was looking for. I did check them out and it looks like the right alternative.. Thanks again.

I have a personal FB account that is tied to my FB Fan page. I really would like to have them separate. Is there any way to make a separate FB account with the same Fan Page and
Good information Abigail. Zora, they have so many rules and changes going on in social media that, if you let it, it will drive you crazy. I share my posts, share other little anecdotes and then let it be.
Hi Melanie. You are right. Share stuff and then move on. There is not enough time in the day. I had too many expectations when I reopened my FB account. It was only for this purpose. Thanks for your input.
You can change the settings of your business page so that no one knows you are the author of it if you wish to remain anonymous. That way no one can find your personal profile through your business page. To do this go into your page settings, select featured and remove yourself from showing up as admin. This will keep everything separate and unconnected while you manage your page via your personal profile. Many blessings and wish you great success.
*Update! You can go into your page settings, choose featured and remove your profile as a featured admin so it is kept private. Hope this helps. :)
Hi Zora, yes, it is the same thing as a fan 'like' page. Not sure why you can't see page roles. For me you click settings and on the left there is a heading called 'general' and under that there is 'page roles.' Perhaps go through all of your settings info and see if you can find where the admin of the page is displayed. Perhaps it is already disabled or something, not sure. You could also ask for help from FB and search answer via google etc... Really hope all goes well and many blessing.
Hi Abigail. I was under my personal profile and it does not show page roles under there. Si I see it on my fan page settings. I clicked the"x". I guess that removed me. Not sure but thanks.
Yes, you need to do this action on you actual page and not personal profile. Glad you found it. Blessings. :)
Hey again Zora, I that in your page you are managing there is an option to select 'featured' in your settings. Here you can un-feature your personal profile for the public to see. Check out all the setting to making sure you are kept private. Hope this helps.
What would be the reason for separating them?
If you don't want your business activities connected to your personal activities, then I would suggest that you consider creating a brand new Facebook fan page. I would not concern yourself over the 56 likes if you are going to be creating a fan page very specific to your business. Start fresh.
Do know that the return on time (ROT) for Facebook fan pages is very slim, so don't waste too much time over there. Your time is best spent on your website Rosalyn and building that out, building out your content, and creating dialogue with your audience there.
Kyle. The reason for separating them is now there are people who are going to follow that I really don't know, but would only engage for business purposes. So I really would not want them to see all of my personal stuff.
It looks like I have to have a personal profile before I can have a business or fan page. FB is so confusing. There are so many different opinions on the weight of what FB holds.
To set up a fan page, you have to have a personal profile page, Rosalyn. That's FB rules. You can turn your profile page into a business page if you'd like, but there are some strange things with that. Here's the rules on that: https://www.facebook.com/help/175644189234902
But basically, you have to have a personal profile before you can create a business page. Oh, and your'e not supposed to have two profiles, but I know plenty who have two, three and more. ;)
Oooo. Thanks Carla. It looks likes there is some good info here in the link. I am going to study it now. Kyle brings up some good points too.
As you can see, there are a lot of people who are still baffled by any social media, but especially FB, because it can be so personal too. G+ and Pinterest are so different from FB
Thanks. I will read the info in the link and take it from there. But if the return on those pages is so slim, why are we even engaging at all?
Because you never know where one person can take you. That's my interpretation. For instance, my Ms. Atlantic City page has about 2,500 people on it. If FB shows the posts to 10 people these days, I'm lucky. They want me to pay to show my posts to more. So far, I've resisted. So they punish me by not letting people see the posts unless they come to the page. I've found a few tricks around it to show it to more, but if I can get 100 views on a post, it's a miracle. And that's out of 2,500 people. But if the RIGHT person picks up your post, it can go viral. Note Kyle doesn't say DON'T DO IT, just don't spend all that much time on it.
I like this dialogue Carla and I hope more people join in to hear different experiences and opinions. Blessings
Hi Zora, social media works hand in hand with your website, especially when you are interactive, and provide fun, entertainment, and fact-filled information to your fans. If you brand yourself with your own custom-based posts with your business name, you will get more likes and also people over to your website. My friend has 1.2 million likes to her fan page, and getting thousands over to her website each week! so it can work! You need to be on Pinterest too...when people click on your images it will take them to your website...if you need any more information, let me know...
Hi Gordon. I remember you mentioned your friend before with all of the likes. I am on Pinterest already. Not doing too good there. Every time I create a new post I share it on FB fan page, G+ and Pinterest. So I guess that is all that I can do until people start following. Thanks Gordon
On Pinterest: if you follow them, they usually follow you back, so follow people every day. There's also software available that helps you get lots of followers quickly. You can google on how to build your followers on pinterest...
