Posted on by February 21, 2016

google auhtorHands up if you have tried to Setup Google Authorship and failed. Yes? Me too – until yesterday.  Setting up Google Authorship and getting it to work, can be very frustrating. It can make you feel like a complete idiot. I know this because I’ve just spent my entire Easter trying to crack this particular Golden Egg (think Goose that lays etc…)..what? it was Easter, OK?  

But…I finally did it, and now I can explain to you exactly how you can do it too… in 30 minutes, not in 4 frustrating days, as I did.

Here are some things you need to think about if you are serious about your blog and it’s future:

  • Do you know what Google Authorship Markup is?
  • Do you know WHY you need to get on the Authorship bandwagon…or risk getting left behind, and wondering where all your traffic went?
  • Do you know HOW to put your PHOTO on Google, so it appears next to your links in Google Searches…and WHY you should (it increases traffic, Yes!)
  • Do you know what rel=”me” and rel=”author” are, and why you must have them? Continue reading →

Posted on by May 12, 2013

google plus 200x204Do you know what Google Authorship is?  It’s sometimes called Google Authorship Markup as well. Do you know why every successful blogger on the planet is scrambling to put their picture on Google? Trying to get photos of themselves to appear in Google’s Search Results? Do you know how to put your Photo on Google and get it to appear in Google search results? And why you must?

Do you know why the HTML codes rel”me” and rel”author” are so important? Do you have a Google+ account with a Google+ Profile picture for Google search results yet? If you don’t, you need to get one as soon as possible.  You cannot afford to ignore Google+ any longer.  The train is leaving the station…are you on board?

All these topics are linked together, and interwoven into a spaghetti tangle of information and linking networks that I have spent most of Easter, trying to untangle and get working for me. My next article will explain to you exactly how to navigate these troubled waters, and land safely on the beach of ‘I did that! Hah! Eat my Dust!’  [See the diagram of link structure and layout, in graphic below]. Continue reading →

nofollow linksYour Blogroll, your Feedburner link and Affiliate Banners are normally located in Widgets in your Sidebar. The links in these widgets will normally be dofollow links. According to the latest Panda update from Google, it is probably a good idea to make these links nofollow links. Especially if you have links in your Blogroll that are not an exact matched with your blog’s niche topic.
