I have deleted my post. What happens?
Nothing happens. Except that the preview of your post will still remain in the Conversation widgets. However, you will not be able to enjoy additional benefits. No one will be able to participate through your post's widget
(since it's gone), which means you won't be able to receive referral fee.

I followed all the directions, but I cannot see any widget inside my post.
Your widget MUST be attached to a blog post. Please do not paste it in your sidebars. If you cannot see any contents inside the widget even though you have pasted it inside your post, please check our supported blogs list. Also, the edit mode should be in HTML when writing a post. If you are still experiencing problems, please let us know at Questions & Feedback. Please include your problem and your post's URL.

I submitted my post but didn't get any E-mails.
Please check to see if our notification E-mail is in your Spam box. Then, check our supported blogs list. If your blog is on our list and you are still experiencing problems, please try acquiring a new widget code and paste it once more in your post. If all of these don't work, please let us know at Questions & Feedback. Please include your problem and your post's URL.

Why are there two blog types?
If your blog supports embedding of Flash widgets, you can use Type 1. Otherwise, you can still participate with Type 2. If both fails, please let us know at Questions & Feedback. Please include your problem and your post's URL.

Can I participate from places other than blogs?
No. You can only participate from a blog post.

Is Conversation starter the same as the site owner?
Not always. Conversation starter may or may not be affiliated with the company, person, organization, or entity she is promoting.
Top of page
Do I have to enter my PayPal account when acquiring a widget code for participation?
No. We recommend you to enter the E-mail address you use most frequently. You will be asked to tell us your PayPal account only when you are collecting your royalty.

My post has been selected, but I wish to withdraw my post from the Conversation. What should I do?
Please refund your royalty using the PayPal refund feature so that we can return it to the Conversation starter. Then let us know your blog address and your intention to withdraw through Questions & Feedback. We will take care of it as soon as possible.

My blog does not appear in the supported blogs list. How can I participate?
The supported blogs list contains the blogs that we have actually tried and succeeded. Most of the blogs that allow <embed> tags or <img> tags can use our service. If your blog supports inclusion of <embed> tags inside posts, your blog type may be Type1. If your blog does not support <embed> tags, but still supports <img> tags, your blog type may be Type2. If you tried participating with both of those methods and failed, please let us know at Questions & Feedback (tell us your blog URL and the trouble you are experiencing).

When do I receive referral fee?
You will receive the referral fee when the Conversation ends.
When the post quota is met, which leads to the end of the Conversation, the total amount of accumulated referral fee will be sent to you.
You will receive an e-mail which asks you to claim your money if you are eligible.
Refer to the following link to find out how to claim your referral fee.
Top of page
Why can't I receive referral fee even though my post has been selected?
You receive royalty payment when your post is selected.
However, you can receive referral fee only when someone who participated through your post's widget is selected.
Referral fee is separate from royalty, and their payments are made separately also.
Top of page
My post was not selected. Now what?
Even if your post is not selected, you are still eligible to receiving a referral fee.
You can earn a referral fee each time someone participates in the Conversation through your post's widget and is selected.
This is because a referral fee is the payment designed especially for rewarding the participants who influence others to participate.
Top of page
I found the Conversation widget through someone else's blog and participated from her post. Does she receive the referral fee?
She will receive the referral fee when your post is SELECTED. Participation itself doesn't have any effect.

What does "participating through(or from) **'s post" mean?
When you discover a Conversation widget inside someone's post, you can instantly participate from right there by clicking on the blue button at the bottom of the widget and then following through the suggested procedure.
When you follow through the steps in the widget and finally submit the blog post you have just composed, you have participated through that person's post.
