Seven questions from a newbie!

[Sharon]

Hello again,
I wonder if i could tell you the problems we are having as Marc does not seem to get any pm's from us (not sure what the problem is?)
Anyway these are the current problems:

1.Do i use wordpress uploader to upload articles?

2. When i select blog to upload articles and then select articles,i then press the 'post article' tab. It starts to upload but then freezes and the process bar does not move and then the program does not respond.However there are articles on the site? Please have a look at www.letsdetox.com and see what i am waffling on about!

3.I entered pub id and channel id and am getting 'page cannot displayed' where ads should be.Also the links do not work.

4.I am using www.divine-wine.com as the main hosting but when i have added domains to the account this still shows in the tool bar.....which i don't think is right if you go to a detox site and see the tool bar showing a site about wine!!

5. Is it best to have a seperate domain for each plr pack or are subdomains ok?

6. If we have a keyword but no article relating to this keyword, do we use exclusive article to get one written?

7. Is it ok to use microsoft word to combine article to make an original one?

Well thats about it for the moment!!!
Would be really grateful for your help, as i have been stuck on this for quite some time. I do understand how busy you all are and i do appreciate all you are doing, Thanks,
Sharon & Stu.

Hi Sharon

I'll answer your questions using the same numbers:

1) I daresay you can but I don't
I assume you mean your 25% re-written articles. There is a video about blog posts (which is how you put your articles on the site) basically you log into your blog and then click 'write post' and the rest should be self explanatory.
Remember to put your main keywords in the tag section. (all is explained in the video)

2)I assume this relates to wordpress uploader so see answer to 1)
3)Your ads are displaying fine to me
4)No this doesn't look right, have you bought a separate domain for each plr package? Sub domains are OK but I prefer each pack to have it's own domain. If you are going to go the sub domain route I would have a more generic main domain e.g. productreviews.com/detox
5) Answered in 4)
6) Yes, or write yourself, but why not use the articles you have first?
7) Not really, you need to be re-writing it using different words that mean the same if that makes sense, not just juggling the content - perhaps someone else would care to comment on this.

If you need further help (especially on the domain thing) just shout
All the best

Hi Jakki,
Thanks very much for that
With regards to the domains:
Yes we have a seperate .com domain for all of our packs.
We added them to our plr hosting using the'add domain' tab on the c/panel.
But all of them show up the same in the tool bar with'divine-wine' making them look like sub domains when they are not!
The only time i have managed to succeed in having the correct domain in the tool bar was when i did not use the plr pro template but used fantastico instead.
If you have a look at the site www.letsdetox.com and click on the product review #1. How do we get rid of 'the page cannot be found' section?
Also do we need to do our own review of the products or get someone to do it for us and can we chose any product?
Thanks again Jakki,
Sharon.

Hi Sharon

Ok I think what you may be doing wrong is adding domains through cpanel.

You must have set up your hosting account with a master domain (this is how it normally works).

So you log into your host with domain.com/whm (domain.com being the domain you set up the account with) whm = web host manager. You will have been given (or you chose) a username and password for this account. Your host should have given you this login url, so it's worth checking as they are not always what I have stated above.

Down the left side is a menu and this is where you want to choose add a domain name. Then you set up your domain that way and it will have it's own url instead of being a sub domain.

I did not get page cannot be found when I checked.

You can do the review or get someone else to do it, up to you. Mostly you would want to review products you are affiliated with in the theme of your site.

Hi Sharon,

Just to add a little about the domain names, and I hope I'm not stating the obvious.

Have you gone to where you purchased your domain names and had the DNS directed to your web host?

That can take a couple of days before they show up at your web hosting.

When you type in the URL for each domain you will get the parent directory screen and then you will know it is active at the web host.

I set up an addon domain through cpanel first. That gives me the directory/folder/file (whatever you want to call it) to work from.

If you do use a generic domain then add a sub-domain in cpanel for your topics and your URL will look like www.diets.genericname.com or www.recipes.genericname.com so your topic comes first in the address bar.

As I said, hope I haven't stated the obvious but I had problems with this when I first started with web hosting and domain names.

Hi Sharon,

When you are on the cpanel screen you need to go to "Addon Domains" Then type the new domain in the box: letsdetox.com in the box under that Username/directory/subdomain Name you type in: letsdetox
And put in your password under that, click on Add domain, and it should work.

As long as you've got your DNSs pointing to the right host, you should be able to access your domain pretty quickly (it can be quite fast, but sometimes it takes a bit longer, if you've already done this correctly, then when you set up your Addon domain, you should have it almost straight away)

If you've already done all this, and it isn't working, you may need to contact your host.

Ah, another thing, did you set up something in the forwarding section below this??? I ask because it redirects when I type in the domain name letsdetox.com, and the only way I can think it's doing that is if you've somehow set up redirecting. Once you've set up your addon domain, you don't need to touch the redirect section for it to work!! If you've done this, you will need to remove the redirection.
