  • How do I know what browser version I am using?

    Whenever you contact SiteSell Support, please provide the operating system (e.g., Windows 10, Mac OS 10.14), the browser (e.g., Safari, Firefox, IE, Chrome, Opera, etc.) and the browser version you are using.

    Are you unsure about the browser "version"? Scroll down to the applicable browser and follow its instructions...

    - INTERNET EXPLORER

    From the top menu, click on Help > About Internet Explorer. A pop-up window will provide the current version.

    - FIREFOX

    From the top menu, click on Help > About Firefox. A pop-up window will provide the current version.

    - GOOGLE CHROME

    Click on the tool icon in the upper right corner > About Google Chrome. A pop-up window will provide the current version.

    - SAFARI

    Click on Safari in the menu bar. Click About Safari and it will show the current version.

  • My pop under page is not showing. OR... My pop under page is popping over instead of under the home page.

    The pop-under page is subject to individual browser behavior, as well as individual visitor's browser settings. Also, if you access the site and the pop-under is shown, it will not be shown again for at least 24 hours. This is to prevent any annoyance for repeat visitors.

    When the page is shown, it may pop up, instead of under, for some visitors. This is due to individual browser behavior and how they handle pop-up/under pages.

    Please note that while we still offer the option for a pop-under page, most visitors today have some sort of pop-up blocker on and will likely not ever see the pop-under page at all.

    You may even have a pop-up blocker on that you are not aware of. Add-on toolbars often have pop-up blockers that are activated by default when they are installed.

    You can test this by holding down the Ctrl key on your keyboard while clicking a link to your site. This temporarily disables the pop-up blocker to allow the current pop-up.

  • How do I access Name Park It!? I don't have access to Site Central yet.

    If you have not registered your domain name and built your home page, and do not have access to Site Central yet, you can access Name Park It! (NPI!) by joining the SiteSell Affiliate Program (if you haven't already).

    Step 1) Go to...

    https://login.sitesell.com

    Enter your current SBI! username and password and click on the LOGIN Affiliate Club button. If you have not already joined the SiteSell Affiliate Program, you will be prompted to do so now.

    Don't worry, this does not mean that you must promote SiteSell products, but it will gain access to Name Park It! for now. You may choose to promote SiteSell products at a later date and you'll be all set up to do so!

    Step 2)

    Once you've joined the Affiliate Program, return to the Affiliate Program Home page and select the "Domain Parking" link at the bottom of the page (You'll find it under the Affiliate Program Home > Promo Tools section).

    Once you've purchased your NPI! subscription, return to Name Park It! to register your domain name.

    If you prefer not to be an affiliate, contact Support and we will be happy to assist you...

  • Does Ken do consultations?

    Ken is very busy working on upcoming SBI! features/modules. He is constantly in meetings, closely monitoring development and deadlines.

    Ken would love to give you good, solid advice about your site but it's simply impossible right now. He must focus on bringing the most good to the most people.

    We hate to dampen your enthusiasm due to our inability to provide in-depth analysis. It takes a lot of time to really do a great job at suggesting improvements. Unfortunately, we just do not have that kind of time.

    But we don't want you to be left out there, up a creek without a paddle either! So, here are two excellent options to help you if/when you get stuck...

    1) The Forums!
    THE Place For Friendly, Success-Based Discussions

    https://forums.sitesell.com

    This is a great place for people to come to help and be helped. Before you post, please be considerate of the group and review the various threads to see if someone has already covered your particular question. If not, post your question. (Please read guidelines first.)

    Some friendly, helpful and experienced SBIer will likely chip in shortly. You will find many knowledgeable and savvy users in the Forums who are willing to help. And do pay the favor forward. Help someone else out.

    2) SiteSell Professionals

    SiteSell Professionals is where you get personalized one-to-one help in using SBI! to its fullest potential... it's all about Do-It-Yourself but not "do it alone." SiteSell Professionals provide the guidance and instruction you need to get up and running as quickly as possible. SiteSell Professionals know SBI!, use SBI! every day, and can cut your learning time dramatically.

    The SiteSell Professionals Program provides one-to-one help with consulting-type questions that are outside the scope of the internal SiteSell Support team.

    Pressed for time? Hire someone you can trust to build a site for you.

    Some SiteSell Professionals are available to help you build your entire site. For more information on this complete service, please see...
