“Sorry, it seems that there are no available payment methods for your state. Please contact us if you require assistance or wish to make alternate arrangements.” This was the message I received when trying to checkout from my WooCommerce e-commerce WordPress website, even though the payment method had been configured earlier and was working fine.
The message was a bit confusing, as nothing had changed in the settings, but it still appeared on the checkout page and prevented customers from completing their purchases. I had configured the payment method as ‘Cash on Delivery’ only.
I went back to the settings, reconfigured them, and saved everything, as shown in the screenshots below.
After enabling and saving the settings, the message disappeared, and everything has been working fine since.

Wordfence was blocking all visitors and my email was full of blocking emails. It was supposed to block when a visitor or hacker only tries to find non-existent PHP or script pages to exploit vulnerable codes and pages and inject malware/virus.
inbox was full of IP-blocking messages
But due to a cache problem a lot of CSS files were missing, it was a plugin error of the cache plugin. So when any visitor was visiting the site a large number of CSS scrips was not found automatically therefore wordfence blocked the visitors.
Let’s share screenshots from my PC to walk you through the process of how I found the issue and solved it:
Step:2
I checked the Wordfence dashboard and found CSS files missing problem led to all IP blocking.
Step 3:
I visited the website Dakhm.com and found many missing 404 CSS files due to cache problems.
Step 4:
Then I tried to visit another page of the website, but now Wordfence blocked my IP too like other IPs.
Step 5:
In this step, I need to unblock myself and login to the website to remove my IP from Wordfence block list. I will be using Filezilla for FTP to change Wordfence plugin’s folder name so that Wordfence plugin is deactivated. In this way, my ip will be unblocked as the plugin itself is deactivated.
Step 6:
I could log in after deactivating the Wordfence plugin.
Step 6:
Follow the screenshot below to clear the cache from the wp optimize cache plugin.
Step 7:
Then go to Cloudways as per the below screenshot, and clear Varnish cache from your server.
Step 8:
Then go to Cloudflare as per the below screenshot, and clear Everything.
After clearing all cache I saw there was no missing css files, from chrome inspect element.
Then change Wordfence plugin’s folder to real name with FTP and login to website and activate the plugin, then go to the blocking option and unblock necessary ips, like below screenshot. And you are done.

Here’s a snapshot from our Amazon affiliate dashboard. While we received clicks from Pinterest, none resulted in sales. This isn’t surprising based on my experience. I’ve consistently seen that clicks from Amazon affiliate websites, optimized for SEO, lead to higher conversions compared to clicks from social media platforms.

If these Pinterest clicks had come from an optimized Amazon affiliate website, the conversion rate could have been as high as 80%.
Why? Because users on social media like Pinterest are often browsing casually, not actively looking to purchase. On the other hand, users searching through Google, Bing, or DuckDuckGo are usually more intent on finding solutions or products, making them more likely to complete a purchase if directed correctly.
Investing in Website SEO for your Amazon affiliate site ensures you attract these “ready-to-buy” users, leading to higher conversion rates and more sales.
