Teamwork
-
Gentlemen/Ladies:
Okay, I am angry and very frustrated. I just wanted to try and make some extra income through some type of web-based system. This whole domain-hosting-site creator-wordpress system is complicated enough and seemingly a bottomless pit—money-wise. All these touted ‘20 minutes work’, so easy ‘my-dog-can-do-it’ and the cash will start to roll in claims is nonsense. It appears you have to lock people in for months or years at a time to get them started. And once you are in and the money has changed hands, that’s it.
Listen to this video, click here and there and that is it—easy. The problem is you do not work as a team. You are individuals, each with your hands out and a big grin on your face—caught another one! That’s Okay—I have been taken advantage of before—so I am not that surprised. But Hey! You guys are the experts on putting these things together. Sometimes, eventually–things have to actually work, or you could not stay in business for long.I WANT THIS TO WORK FOR ME! I have paid money. I can get more—eventually. I just want to see some semblance of progress. I am not an IT brain and this system that you guys KNOW, does work. There are thousands of sites up and running. I just do not understand why, it appears to me, that among you, whom I have chosen to place some trust in knowing your job, cannot get my piddling little site to a point that I can type something in a browser window and Behold!—something, anything—appears.
In my feeble, little brain I am going to list the players that I have either given money to or given a username or password to that contribute to this ‘miraculous’ feat.
First, I purchased (years ago) a public registration domain name: ‘WorkingItSmart.com’ from MyDomainStation.com which I believe is now part of GoDaddy. I plan to keep this domain. I did not Do anything with the name (I did not know how and help costs time and money). I just have held on to it until now, I want to use it. The DNS pointed to nowhere in particular (because it was not used). I briefly pointed the DNS to some .ws
outfit that did not work out. A couple of years back, I picked a hosting service (for some
reason that I cannot remember) called—HostGator (to which I am still paying money) and pointed the DNS to ns6495.hostgator.com
ns6496.hostgator.com for, again, a reason I do not recall (but it evidently did not work out—probably because I lacked the knowledge to put it all together into something that made sense). Until recently. I placed a Craigslist ad, to meet with someone face to face to help me put the final piece of puzzle together to actually see something online. He
succeded by finding the next player—WordPress (which gave me my first glimpse of an online presence), rough, not pretty, but I can still access it. It works. Thank you, WordPress! Progress. And, for free(for now), best buy I have made so far. But, my final goal is to eventually generate income. So what my Craigslist guy was able to do was lay the groundwork. But to be a site where you are seeking to ‘sell’ to the public, this online presence needed to be prettier, slicker, refined—all of which my Craigslist guy did not have the skills to do. So I got an email from—
Jack with Affiliate Game Change – He sounded plausible and I thought maybe I could start here. I have listened to some training and am ready to get started. I did not purchase the upgrades, because I did not have the cash. He pointed me to his hosting service and site building service that helps his system work. I thought that here is my chance to have a site built by those who have more expertise than my Craigslist guy. So I decided to sign up for hosting with my next player—
Purely Hosting (whom I paid six months of service from), again, not with all the bells and whistles but something workable. I pointed my DNS settings to their servers (as requested): NS1.PURELYDNS.NET, NS2.PURELYDNS.NET
They said the site was being prepared, and sure enough, I got an email from my next player. Purely Hosting told me my username: raworkin was to be used along with a password to log in to: http://www.workingitsmart.com/wp-admin/ to see my new one can seem site built using WordPress. Well, for some unknown reason that none of all these smart people can figure out is why nothing shows up for me on either my laptop (wirelessly connected to my cable modem that I have access to the entire world) nor my desktop which is directly connected to the cable modem (and has that same access).Innovative Site Creations is the site building service who put together the site with the elements that go along with the Affiliate Game Change system that helps generate income when people click on the links on the site. It looked nicer, prettier because I actually got to view it but not from home (only on my computer at work). I spent all night recently trying to tweak as best I know the content and images presented on the site. Not finished, mind you, but at least something that I consider worthwhile showing to the public. Unfortuneately, I cannot stay at my worksite to maintain the site and respond to maybe some eventual visitors. The email say that the site was finished and ready to go using, again http://www.workingitsmart.com/wp-admin/ with username: raworkin and a password.
The steps I have taken include over the past week or so much of my waking time trying to see the website. I have Chrome, Firefox, IE10, and installed a fresh copy of Opera. I have cleaned the caches (using CCleaner and Privazer) which wipes out everything; so, it can not be browser-related. My My IP connection is 173.27.8.74 which is the fastest connection for me (using the tool Namebench). I have ‘ipconfig/flushdns’ successfully. All I get from the browsers, whether putting in http://www.workingitsmart.com/wp-admin/ or http://www.workingitsmart.com all I get from any browser, including my little Android phone is:
timed out message, cannot find message, it just never connects. I never get the chance to put in a username. If I go separately to: http://www.Wordpress.com inputting ‘raworkin’, they do not have a record of such. Each day I email Purely Hosting, Innovative Site Creations and have asked WordPress and recently Alexa support for some help—any help. The money keeps going out, I try and do what is asked of me—and nothing, nothing works. Please, if I need to pay somebody more money, let me know. If there are settings I need to set, or change—let me know. My trust in your collective professions is seriously marred. If I treated my patients like that, they would surely not come back or bring charges up on me. You guys are smart, you know this stuff—just where is the integrity that sometimes shows up when wrinkles occur. That is what I am waiting to see. I cannot be so unique in my problem, that it is a lost cause. Please!Robert Alvarado

Hi there! You are blaming all kinds of people for all kinds of problems you have with getting online. One thing you need to do is to head over to WordPress.ORG for advice about how to make your site work. It’s not that we don’t want to help you: it’s that our blogging platform, WordPress.COM uses different software and our answers would not help you.
Here are details about the different sorts of WordPress, including a link to the wp.ORG forums where you will find help.
