Hello WA community,

On my search results in google it displays my name, my google + account, and the amount of people that have me in circles which indicates that they know

I was very frustrated with this. Like you I have no picture and am sure that I have set Google Authorship up correctly. In time we may get an upgrade and our pictures will show up:)

Correct, google changed that. They now only show pictures of top rated sites.

Google has severely cut back on pictures in search results. Mine shows up in rich snippet, but not in search too. A lot of us are in the same boat.
It has nothing to do with how you set it up.

Have you tried to delete your current photo and reload it?

I had the same problem. My Google+ picture shows up when I post a video description, but it doesn't show up for my pages. I'm puzzled, too.

The post Tracy posted will explain well.

FYI, I found your site, but I'm confused as to what domain you're now using because it redirects to another domain.
If you haven't done so already, you need to verify both domains with Webmaster tools and let them know that domain-A has been moved to domain-E.

Edited my comment because Tracy link makes more sense.

Yeah I moved it and verified it.

Thanks. That clarified things a little.

Hey everyone,

I am having a big issue with google webmaster tools.

Recently, I moved my site to a new domain using the move feature at this website, and everything w

As nobody seems to be helping much, I would just do it the long way and copy the old stuff manually on to the new site.

Oh, this would give me anxiety too. I don't know who would be able to help you with this…the entire GA and WMT issue seems to be the two things that freak me out the most. I will be interested to see if anyone is able to help you with this.

Have you tried verifying with Email.

No I didn't know you could do that. I just use the methods that were listed on webmaster tools. Do you have any more info on how to do this?

You have to do it through your G plus, you verify your email from the website ( yourname@yourwebsite ) to your G plus account, I think that's how I did it, but have you also done the contributor to, on your G plus and have you put By yourname at the bottom of each page. These are important factors, otherwise you may not be able to do it through Email.


Ok ill give it a shot. Its gonna take a little bit to put my username on each page lol. This sounds like trying to get authorship to work and I have never really had success with that.

None of it's easy, it's just stuff we have to do. I just do everything until it works. I

Hello WA community,

The only thing about my website that I am not happy with these days is the domain name.

I was wonder if you can move from a .com to another .com

Hey thanks for responding you guys. I purchased a new domain and was easily able to transfer to the new ones with the move feature @ WA.

What happened to your other domain after you moved to your new one?

I think you could do a back and restore from one database to another with sites that have different domains but I've not done it.

Hi, Sorry but I can't say for certain if you can change your domain name. I believe though that you can buy another domain name and link it to your site. I hope someone else can give you more info. Sorry :( I don't know anything more.
Always Smiling,
Litsa

No i don't think you can. If i would be you i would export my website ( the one on the domain i don't like ) and import on the new domain. This will cost you a little bucks.

Wait a little before doing it, maybe some experiences WA members can give you a better solution ;)

As my site slowly gains momentum in the search engines, it seems like there are more parasites and spammers visiting my website. They come using the same operating system (windows

Mine went down hugely since I installed WP antispam plugin. I now only get about 2 or 3. That's a huge drop from before.

Have you got akismet installed and a captcha?

I just got a akismet key, lets see if it works. Thank you!

LOL i just got 1400 page views in one minute. God these people are gonna drive me crazy.

Correction, one hour.

I get dozens of these almost everyday. I get failed log in attempts too. It's frustrating but nothing we can do about it.

Hey guys sorry this came out as a blob of text, I had it separated into three paragraphs, don't know why that happened.

I have always looked at this in a positive way as the better I rank the more often I will see these things. Sure it adds numbers into the traffic that are "bogus" visitors, but it still a good indication that your site is growing. I have also found that when I worried less about the numbers and more just on the content and following the process taught here that I have had much more success anyway.

Yeah I agree. I like to analyze my traffic though because it allows me to take a break from writing content (lol). Bing is really starting to show me love, google....well, they finally have a current thumbnail of my website in webmaster tools :O.

I hear yah, I love to analyze data as well.

Google sniper was a product from clickbank once...i thought it was off market. Do they any harm except ruin your stats? Have a fine day - Janine

No, but I like to analyze my traffic, and the fact that people who have no business being there is making that difficult really upsets me.

Many of my affiliate programs offer coupons and discounts that I can provide to my readers. Many of them are even custom coupons, and if someone uses those them then I get credi

I can't scroll sideways in my notification window and therefore can't read the whole sentence. Does any one have similar issues?

Try the zoom button that's on the search bar to the right next to the favorite star icon. Work with some percentages and see how it ends up like.

Good luck and keep us updated as to how it goes.

Thanks for the help you guys ill let you know how it turns out.

Hi, I agree with Joe. Putting them on a "bargain" or "sale" page may work and draw them to your site as well. Remember, when you get them there to your page, then they will see the sales or coupons that way as well. I think it's a win-win with that without spreading them throughout your site and making it seem too cheesy. Good luck!

Hey Jeff...I have no experience with coupons but the idea of putting them on a separate "bargain" page may work....Let us know how it works out for you.

Very interesting your article.
For that reason I moved from my Wordpress sites. I want to fully dedicate sales and no affiliations. Maybe some, the best.

If your finding buyer intent keywords I would definitely go for it.
