Search Engine Optimization

Hi Everyone,
I have about a dozen posts on my site https://barbecuefoodie.com/, but only two of the posts are indexed by Google as far as I can tell.
Does this mean that

Hi - I took a look at your 5 latest posts, and none of them have an internal link in them.

Internal links are essential so that Google can find all your content and understand the structure of our website.

Every post should have an internal link leading to it from another post, and an internal link leading away from it, to another one of your posts.

But ensure you are linking to relevant posts on a similar subject, which will add value to your reader.

On another note, you are breaking a couple of Amazon's rules that will get you removed from their program.

Firstly, your Affiliate Disclosure doesn't meet their requirements.

You also need to put their exact wording in each post that has an affiliate link "As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases," and you need to put this directly above the first link.

Next, you can't mention the price of the product, as it can change on a daily basis.

I really appreciate you having a look at my site and giving me some feedback. I'll add internal links and make sure to fix the Amazon rule violations. Thank you for calling that out!

Hi, just a quick follow up question.
I used the Affiliate Disclosure template (https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/content/create/6) from Site Content for the general disclosure on my site. Do you know if Amazon requires anything different for that? I looked at the Amazon Associates site and didn't find specific disclosure requirements other than the one liner you provided. Am I missing something, or is my general disclosure sufficient? Thanks!

Your full disclosure is fine for all other affiliate links, and Amazon just needs that one sentence directly in the post.

If you can, however, sometimes not. You can always request indexing. Google works on Google time

Thanks you for your reply; I wasn't aware I could request indexing, so I'll be working on that today.

I am going through the training and it says that clicking "Research" in the top menu will open up Jaaxy. However, for me this opens a submenu and when I click "Keyword Search"

You may need to empty the browser cache, refresh and try again. Try the URL in a different browser or mobile device.

If that doesn't solve it.

You may go to
https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/account

Under WA settings, click options and make sure your email is connected to Jaaxy.

And if that doesn't solve it.

You need to reach out to Kyle on their profile space.
https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/kyle

check in your account - click on your profile image and choose account settings ...
in there there is a section for jaaxy - make sure the email address is the correct one for your account and if it is then click on 'options' - i think it is that- and this may bott it into action - i have seen a fe wthat have had to connect their account manually...
i hope you get it sorted...

Debra is correct! You get this option with your membership but you do have to have a Jaaxy account.
It is an amazing tool especially when you start looking up the AVG and QSR. You will also learn to use it in sequence with Google.

Yes, that's correct. Click Research, then Keyword Search - then you're in Jaaxy. If you haven't already signed up for Jaaxy, go ahead and sign up. You get a certain number of searches for free. If you're already signed up, then you should be able to login on that page. I hope this helps! Debra
PS I've been doing this for 8 years and I use Jaaxy almost every single day! It's one of the best tools for your business.

Thanks Debra! The training didn't mention a separate sign up for Jaaxy, but I'll go ahead and do that.
