Here are some frequently asked questions about The WAHM Blogs for those considering signing up:

When I create my blog what will my URL look like?
The blogs are all created as subdomains, so your url will be http://yourblogname.thewahmblogs.com

What payment methods can I use for my cart?
At the moment, the carts are configured to work only with Paypal, but we are working on adding other payment methods in the future.

How much does it cost for a blog cart?
We charge only $5 per month for a blog with shopping cart. There is no setup fee and you may cancel at any time. If you cancel, that will only remove the cart option and your ability to sell directly from your blog. Your blog will remain open unless you decide to delete it.

Do you offer a free version?
Yes, you can get a blog at The WAHM Blogs without the shopping cart option at no cost. You can use it to advertise your business, link to an existing standalone cart, showcase your products, etc. The only thing you will not be able to do is use the shopping cart feature.

Can I put adsense or other advertising on my blog?
Yes, you are free to put adsense ads or any other advertising you choose on your blog, even on the free blogs (those without the cart option). Most of our templates are widget enabled and you can set up your ads in the widgets.

I’m not really familiar with blogging/Wordpress/shopping carts. Can someone walk me through it all?
We are working on a comprehensive support section to guide our customers through all the functions. If you find that you can’t figure something out, you can email me any time and I’ll be glad to help you. If you need assistance with customization beyond the basic functions of your blog or cart (i.e. you’d like to add a particular plugin or want a specific template uploaded and customized for your use) I am available for custom support at a charge of $10 per hour.

I already have a blog. Is there any way that I can move my posts over from that one?
Yes, The WAHM Blogs has built in support for importing posts and comments from many different systems. Currently, you can import from the following services:
Blogger, Blogware, DotClear, GreyMatter, LiveJournal, Movable Type and TypePad, RSS (Import posts from an RSS feed), Textpattern, WordPress
