Anybody come across a problem with your widgets for ads in your side bar not showing properly?
I started with a Google Adsense ad in the footer not showing, only shaded bo
Thanks, was taking a break and trying to figure out what was next.....dealing with heart surgery and getting a second opinion on my options right now.
Yes Kim, some of your ads are showing up OK, but there are a couple that are just blank blocks. I looked at the coding in those blocks and the AdSense script is actually not there.
Check the scripting in your widget against the scripting that Adsense has given you. There is probably a dot or slash or space in the wrong place. Scripting and coding has no wriggle room at all, every dot and tiddle must be in exactly the right place.
I will check, that is a bit weird since I copied and pasted the code...also, I deleted one of the Amazon ads and its still showing in the preview, but gone in the widgets.....a bit strange on that one.
You know, there's a really good book WORDPRESS FOR DUMMIES - ALL-IN-ONE that covers just about everything. It's almost 900 pages of really good info and you might want to look into it. Available from Amazon, it could turn into your bible. Lots of times none of us can answer a question that's asked here - and often we just don't have time to look it up. I'm guilty. Or give me until Monday and I'll be happy to do it.
I know, tech support wasn't very helpful...seems they worked fine until just recently....it is weird that is for sure.
Haven't done much of anything in the last month, I added one new post and not much else other that I did deactivate and remove the 301 redirect plugin, that may be a problem....but its gone...so not sure how that would affect it either.
That plugin might be why you are having these problems because it was picking up and redirecting a stuff to your site. Can ask support if they can reinstall your site from the previous time
Hi Kim, we haven't been in touch for a wee while.
I used to get the gey blank sometimes and I found out that the problem was usually that I got one tiny detail wrong. Another thing was that, that particular Ad was no longer available and a grey blank was the way you were supposed to know that. Sorry I can't be of more help but check the codes you are inserting into your widegets and you just might find some little thing wrong with it.
Have a nice evening.

Mine are still cream color and I just added them, not sure what is going on....may be the new WordPress update.....well since the latest update...they were working fine and updating fine until I got the update, plus my theme had an update....may be an issue there...not sure.
Yes I had that problem once with an ad for photography, I couldnot remove the ad, removed the text widget, but the add stayed on the site, I tried everything, added the ad again, in a new widget, removed it again, the bugger would not go, spend hours on it, and suddenly it disapeared, don't know why
Thanks Loes, doesn't sound very promising...Lol! I sent tech support a ticket, but they said to ask the community or Kyle/Carson.......So I started with the community.

Why my ads are not showing or deleting right?

Everytime I have any problems even closely related to yours, everyone says to clear my cache and make sure my browser is updated. Might be worth a shot Kim! (-:
Did that, I did find that my ads from Google created a new problem and I couldn't view my editor content under visual mode for all posts and pages....I had to do a system restore from earlier time and date...
Google Adsense was having some issues the other day, so I am not going to use those ads again...I couldn't retrieve the code and they said to try back later...which I did and then that is when more problems happened....so I just deleted them...will try them out again when I get a chance, create new ones later one. Thanks for your help...and yes I did try doing all that and more....appreciate your reply. :))
Ya' know Kim, you and I seem to always have problems that never have easy fixes. What's that about? )-; LOL!!!

Looks like more than one idea, but I think removing URL and deleting them is best since they are not that relevant.
You can go into google webmaster tools. Click on your site then in the site dashboard click on Google index. Under that you will see the option to remove URLs. You can enter those pages you don't want indexed in there. After which you can just delete the pages. Someone please correct me if i am wrong.
That was what I thought I should do before I remove them...also with Bing I was reminded. Thanks. :))
I tried to remove links a few weeks ago, and it crashed my computer! I would hesitate to remove Anything, let alone a hole page. Can't you just edit it/them into something else and hit update?
That is never a problem for me, I just did a factory restore on my computer not too long ago...Lol...I know the ins and outs on how to fix a system, just didn't want to mess up Google indexing and ranking...:)))
If your computer crashed during something you did in your browser, that is just a coincidence. Removing URL's from Google that Google cached but no longer exist is actually recommended.
I did it here with on of my sites, not my browser. One of my affiliates sites halted their program until after the 1st of the year, then they'll be back. When I went to my page editor to remove the links, things flashed and then went blank! Freaked me out, to say the least. Not just my websites, but my whole computer!
Kim - agree with Sam. I hate removing old content because they're what gives your site authority. It is really the widget and amazon boxes and images that are slowing it down. Remove those and keep the content. Or add some update to the content to get bonus points from Google for "fresh" content :)
If you want to get rid of them completely, do the following.
Go to Google Webmaster and >Remove URL AND Cache
Do same at BING
Then do the 301 redirect (i use Simple 301 Redirect plugin)
and trash the pages and posts
John
Thanks John! I've never thought of deleting posts, I do updates. Now I know what to do if I have to dump them completely.
Remove it but do a 301 redirect. So if anyone does find the page in search they get sent to another page on your site automatically and not a 404 error page.
Take a look at one of the redirection plugins that do this for you.
Yep, should send anyone clicking on the old URL to the new one you have set up. Try it by cut & pasting the old URL into your browser, should see you are redirected to the new URL automatically.
Can also remove the old URL from the list that the search engines have indexed - see Mackiejw comment.
As far as I know you can sort this out via webmasters watch Jays video in certification training course 5, its in lesson 3 I think

I wasn't quite doing the keyword search right when I first created my site, then I placed a select few that I saved in Jaaxy on several pages, and of course now I am out of sear
I find this question a curiosity. I don't see how saving the words through Jaaxy can gain search engine power so there must be something I don't quite understand. I do know watching one of Kyle's tutorials he demonstrated how phrases other then our keyword phrase may get ranked on Google, and sure enough when I experimented on day I found pages ranked on pages other then just the one they were ranked on for their keywords! Christa
Did you let your starter membership with Jaaxy expire? I did because I couldn't afford 19.00 a month. But I still do not completely understand the keyword theory.
Well, I used all my searches, and I just paid for the yearly here...can't have everything all at once. I understand it to a certain degree, but still trying to understand the connection that Jaaxy has with Google ranking is all.....
I am of the understanding that google as well as Jaaxy will give you results of what is searched for at the time you do your initial search. Whatever the next month search queries are may or may not change.
I am like you. If I find particular keyword phrase I like I save it. Whether or not the results change I can't say, because I'm lazy and don't double check with current results.
You may be onto something though. Thanks for nudging me to recheck my results.
Ken
Hi Kim.
If I understand your question correctly - does saving keywords in Jaaxy affect the results in the SERPS?
Searching for them, I would say (without certainty about how Jaaxy works) - yes - I am assuming Jaaxy is querying Google etc in the same way as a normal visitor would. And therefore G etc is treating a search from Jaaxy as a "search from a visitor"
It may be worth PM'ing Jay - I believe he oversees Jaaxy - to get a 100% view - but a search on Google through whatever tool, is a search on Google - and that will reflect in their results I would expect.
Cheers, Mark
Yes, I was worried in the beginning that I might be doing the keywords wrong. Over time, however I got indexed and ranked as my site's trust grew.
Can I ask what you were doing that you felt was not effective? I have not heard of anything about saving keywords within Jaaxy will increase search value. Hopefully you can figure it out. Many blessings. :)))
I was just checking to see if there was any more boosting power to what I have already done, I have 304 URL's indexed with Google, I don't seem to be having a problem with that. I also found out that when I thought I removed myself from tracking that I hadn't, I accidentally put in dashes instead of periods for my IP address...oops. I did get good traffic over the holiday weekend, just added 3 Adsense ads on the 26th and 27th and made me $2.93 cent...lol....now its dropped of to pennies and less traffic....maybe just an online slow down from the holiday...just been watching it carefully.
Awesome to hear your success over the holidays too. I too noticed I am getting regular hits on my adsense ads. One thing I get confused about is although I am indexed, sometimes it says a page is not ranked... but then I check analytics and someone found me organically in search engines from keyword search and led to that page... I find that odd indeed because I would have to be ranked. Perhaps not all data is showing correctly. :)))
A page can be found, I think that just means the bots haven't crawled the page yet and indexed it. There are a few things I find odd about Google anyways...lol. :))

I have not added my XML Site Map to Google Webmaster, every time I try to test it there I get a 404 error. However, in the mean time, Google has indexed 231 URL's from my websit
Technically, an Error 404 is a client-side error, implying that the error is your mistake, either because you typed the URL in wrong or the page has been moved or removed from the website.
still confused. when I had Google do a crawl, that error 404 comes up. But the site is indexed, as there are times when I can google up my site. Just not from basic keyword or tags.
This was for my site map, I was putting in the whole URl, just need to type in sitemap.xml and then test, then add if its ok...and yes you are right on pages as well...thanks for the input.
Great information you have gleaned with this question! :) Information I am keeping, lol!
I too am having major trouble understanding any of the analytics, or webmaster tools. Keeps saying error 404 for me to. Says no author but all that is and has been corrected in admin editor for a while now. says...no mark ups? what is that? Yes I'm lost and getting very frustrated at this point. Anyone help? Please speak English, not computer geek talk. I need to understand what the system is actually telling me. Thanks.
First of all according to Google 404 errors are not that huge of a deal. So don't sweat it. I just figured out how to add my site map properly, I was getting the 404 error because I was entering it incorrectly...do you have trouble with this?
I have errors for my authorship and update as well on my main pages...think I figured out how to fix them. I used to have 13 and they are down to 8 now..I was just sitting on that info to make sure they still kept coming off and showed problem fixed.
Haven't looked into markups, I don't have that many...maybe 3 or 4...
As long as I am getting ranked, indexed and traffic is coming in then all is somewhat good for now.
the data I see is false data because it's including my daily checking of my websites for my own errors. (typos etc.) my indexing is 26 but all that is, is how many pages have been submitted. I'm just not getting this stuff. Google drives me nuts every time I get into it, because they don't speak English...just geek speak.
These are some links that were given to me for a different error but some of them talk about this 404 error. So I will re-post them. Still have some computer talk but it is not too bad.

There is a way to exclude yourself, that is what I did....just need to remember how or how I got the info from...its easy....I have to go shortly, but will see if I can at least figure that out so you can remove yourself from being tracked.
I would like to know this also. Will be watching for your post. I get frustrated with the states because I know that some of them are me. And Martin boy do I know what you mean about Google and talking computer Geek talk. I feel the same way you do.
Lol, I know the feeling....I will hopefully have some answers on the Authorship and update fix anyways.
I just watched Jays video about errors, that was somewhat helpful. I think he spent too much time on how to set up a spreadsheet to track your errors though, but he did say to take some pf these errors with a grain of salt, so I would watch this, it may help you out.

I've watched it. Not real helpful. Jay is a spreadsheet (specifically google drive) nut. Might have found something useful though for getting better rankings or at least visibility.

After getting into my webmaster tools I entered what Bennyfactor said to enter to test it and it worked, then I entered it again and hit submit. It is important to enter exactly what he says to enter though. If you are still having problems try to PM Bennyfactor for more help.

Hi everyone, hope all is well and you are enjoying your weekend.
I was wondering who uses a translation plugin that works well. I found a few but they haven't been tested
I'd like to add something to this. Even if you're asking a native speaker for help, it doesn't guarantee that you'll attract the same type of readers compared to your original blog posts. Or let me put it this way, compared to the original language you used for your blog posts or pages.
I hope that what I wrote here makes sense LOL! Anyway Kim, if you ever need English texts translated in Dutch, I'd be happy to help you out. One of the perks of being a native Dutch speaker I guess.
No translation program or plug-in will give you a language that makes sense. You may be able to be understood. As Loes said below, it's terrible for Dutch and may be terrible for all other languages. And even Google translate, which is okay, if you spell incorrectly, lookout below! Good Luck with it, Kim! If I had to deal with another language, I would put a native speaker on retainer, but I realize that may not be possible for everyone.
Google translate but im not upload a post before im shure i have done my Best whit spelling and translate

seems to be good, perhaps you'd like to check it out for yourself? hope this was of help.....
I used Google translation and it slowed my website down. Sometimes it conflicts with Google Analytic. I removed the translation plugin so my Google analytic could work properly.
There is an app for that in extensions, in Google Chrome. It even asks if you want a translation or not.
Google Translate is a plug in and it hasn't been tested with our WordPress version. I was having so many problems with Google lately I wanted to see if there was a different one. I went back to Mozilla Firefox as well. :)
Loes should know about this, I think she tried most of the translation plug-ins with her new sites, PM her & ask.
I know Google offers translation without you having a plugin. If I go to a site that is in another language or see a post in another language, I will be asked if I want it translated. Not sure if it works all the time. I don't visit many sites in other languages lol :)

Everytime I have any problems even closely related to yours, everyone says to clear my cache and make sure my browser is updated. Might be worth a shot Kim! (-:
Did that, I did find that my ads from Google created a new problem and I couldn't view my editor content under visual mode for all posts and pages....I had to do a system restore from earlier time and date...
Google Adsense was having some issues the other day, so I am not going to use those ads again...I couldn't retrieve the code and they said to try back later...which I did and then that is when more problems happened....so I just deleted them...will try them out again when I get a chance, create new ones later one. Thanks for your help...and yes I did try doing all that and more....appreciate your reply. :))
Ya' know Kim, you and I seem to always have problems that never have easy fixes. What's that about? )-; LOL!!!
Lol, I know what you mean!! :))
