I have been struggling with spammers on my webmail email I use with my site and I have reached a point where I don't know whether emails are spam or real.

Hey Jean,

Here's a video to offer you assistance with this: Hope you find this helpful.

is webmailonline.com your e-mail providers? If not block the domain, if yes consider another webmail provider. You should never have to reconfirm your e-mail through a link from the provider, it's a security threat.

We always have to be on the alert with Spam

Thanks! Very helpful read!

On my site, I only have 2 pages. My about me page and my privacy policy.

All my posts are divided into categories that are listed under menu's that are available in my p

The pages will be created for information that will not change much e.g. Privacy Policy, About Me, etc. Your posts are for information that you will be creating on a weekly basis (or more often). Google will be reading your posts and rank you according to the information that you offer your readers.

I have just been to your site and you have a page loading problem

you have to use the WA speed tool and also optin=mise your images with EWWW image optimiser OK

Hi Pual,

Not to sound dumb but I'm not exactly sure what you mean.

Is that an error across the site or just on the certain pages?

When I started I just slapped images into posts but after maybe the 3rd post I started sizing all my images on photoshop before adding them to posts so they can be as small as possible. The average size of images since then has been 200kbs,

Could the few large images on the site still be the reason for this loading speed error?

If so I will just quickly resize and compress them also.

I will look into the options you suggested regardless also.

Thanks

OK I have added site speed. Now just to check if it worked I guess.

Great to hear

Hey Pual
I added site speed and ran ewww image optimizer on my site but if I check the site using google developer tools there has been little change.

Any advice as to what I'm doing wrong?

as you will learn you will add more pages and will end up with may be twenty

I'm not an expert also.

What I have learned that there's an advantage to your posts.

The pages remain in your site.

The post will be pinged by WordPress. There will be a viral effect on your posts just like the news which will be syndicated.

I think the posts will be in the RSS feeds. I can really explain how RSS feed work.

That's why our WordPress sites have an RSS feed.
See yours here:
http://woodworkjunkie.com/feed

All posts go in there and no page contents will show up there. The posts in the feeds will be syndicated.

But there are plugins that will allow your pages to appear in your RSS feed.

For me I use pages for my site's info: contact, privacy policy, disclaimer, etc.

For Google, contents in pages and posts are treated the same.

Thant's great to know. Thank you so much for the help.

Hey Jean,

How far along in the training are you? Why I ask this is because Kyle suggests making a Disclaimer on a page.

As for which is more important is up to you. I have customers with only pages while my business site is a combination of 3 website, one being pages only ... and my personal blog ... well ... I have lots of blog posts and only 3 pages (5 actually, but 2 are not linked anywhere).

Hope this helps you.

I'm on course 5 of the certification training.

Thanks for the reply

Have you come to the lesson where Kyle offers training on the Disclaimer yet?

Jean, I am no expert (disclaimer out of the way).

From my understanding it shouldn't make a difference. The important thing is creating new content on a regular basis.

Looking at your site, you have set it up such that a visitor can find the information they want easily enough.

Thanks for the reply Brendan. I'm just asking because I don't want to get in too deep and then have to change these things.

Hey anyone.

Yesterday I finally reached the part of the training involving webmaster tools. I followed the training to add my site to google search console only to find

I'm wondering the same on my google search console under Search Appearance > Structured Data?

How does one fix these?

Hey Jason,

The following Google search offers several different posts with different suggestions: http://bit.ly/2kQas0U

Hope this helps you.

Thank you Triblu!! :)

Hey Jean,

After doing a quick Google search for "Missing Author and missing update" (without the quotation marks, of course) I found the following posts that may offer you the help you seek:

https://athemes.com/forums/topic/structured-data-error-in-search-console-missing-author-entry-title-and-update/

https://thomas.vanhoutte.be/miniblog/missing-updated-wordpress/

Hope this helps you resolve your issues.

Hey

I followed the second link's instructions you gave me.

I guess now I just have to wait for search console to update and then I'll check it again.

Thanks for the help.

To short the explanation, could be anything. Try press edit again on the work press beside your url and press ok. Also activate the sitemap plugin in All in one seo.
