So…Saturday night I made a teeny mistake. I was working with my friend Jodi on affiliate links, and trying to show her how much I struggled with them. I was making an example of the what I’d been experiencing and I was trying to show her, and instead of putting the link on a page, so she could test it, I made a blog post.
She immediately saw the error of my ways, and being a good friend, she clearly pointed it out to me.
As you can see, I sort of fluffed it off, not really thinking what kind of e-mail ya’ll would get.
Until yesterday morning when I got a direct message from one of my other dear friends.
At this point, two plus two started adding up to four. As you can see I asked her what it said, and this was the response.
So ya’ll, I’m super sorry if I scared any of you, but it’s not spam, and I haven’t (knock on wood) been hacked.
Hopefully this gave you a little chuckle, and helps put your Monday in perspective.
I saw it, thought it looked weird, but clicked through and got one of those 404 errors or something like that. I figured you were just testing something, but of course since I’m also a blogger, I understand these things! I can see where it might be more disconcerting to someone that isn’t familiar with it all though.
Hope you got the other thing figured out after all that! 🙂
I didn’t think of it as spam. I just figured you were having a WordPress problem that you were working on. And went about my business. Have a great week my friend!
I never opened it as it came at a time you don’t usually post and it sounded like an error. We have all done that.
Thanks for the heads up. I saw it and figured it was one of those things otherwise known as “good deeds never go unpunished.” 😆 Good luck sorting out the affiliate links. Have a good week.
Lol. I got it as an email, but only noticed it once you posted on fb about it. We all forgive you xox
Oops. It happens. I got the e-mail and like an idiot, clicked on the link because I was curious. Looks like curiosity could kill the Kat as well as the cats. Really. It’s a miracle my computer hasn’t exploded after being overwhelmed with malware 🙂
Glad even the pro’s make mistakes sometimes, makes me feel better about my humble attempts 🙂
