Google Authorship - Structured Data Errors
Published on March 1, 2014

Recently, I have been adding authorship to new sites and ran into a barrier. When testing the structured data, my authorship was not displaying. What made things worse, was that my main site was not linking either. I checked my SEO to see if the info there was correct - which it was. Also, my contributor sites were all listed on google+. Couple of hours I tried adjusting things with no joy.
Eventually, I found the fault. My contributor status was set for my eyes only - one little change to PUBLIC brought everything back to life. I have no idea when this was changed. As I mentioned, everything worked fine in the past. So, if you have not used the structured data testing tool recently, it may be worthwhile giving it a go.
