There may be some blip in the system. It occasionally happens. Just leave it 24hrs and then try again. Did you get any type of message when you tried to link?

Hi. They usually provide a reason why. Make sure you read any instructions or the "rules" because they are quite strict on that. But it is worth it because it will help with writing for your site.

thanks

I'd recommend using the fields in All-In-One and Webmaster Tools. This training covers it https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/how-to-set-up-google-authorship-verify-with-webmaster-tools-google-analytics :) Rich.

Hi Mark. You can add people to your circles.... but other people need to add you to their circles. You can find people to add to your circles in the "Search for people, pages, and posts" field at the top of your G+ screen. When you find someone that you want to add to your circle, just click on their name (in the Search field) and then the little red box that says "add" below their picture. Hope this helps.

Hi Mark. I can't see a link to your website, so I cannot comment on the number or importance of the "tics" here and there needing fixed. Normally I'd say go with the website and fix it up. If it only needs a bit of tweaking it shouldn't take long. Perhaps get the tasks needing your attention the most fixed up first. Then move on and do your SA blog post. Then go back to your WP dashboard and tweak some more.

Set aside an amount of uninterrupted time for both tasks - that is those of your website and your SA post. Uninterrupted time in my home means 2 times the amount and quality of work done. Remember that an SA post has to be approved first before it is "live". This will also give you a time window to tweak your site somewhat, before any potential visitors arrive on it from your SA blog links.

It's normal when starting out that your website needs tweaking from time to time. Heck mine always does, even months after I started it! But unless something is staring a visitor in the face that's a no-no, like an un-clickable link, then they probably won't notice it.

Just keep following the training on here and work on that. You could have two or three of those articles pointing back to your site per page or post as you do these, so, create a page or post on your website, write two or three articles on SA and point them to the post you've just made.

If you point two articles to each page or post, when you get done with the 30-30 challenge, you will wind up with 15 pages/posts on your new site. If you point three articles, you will have 10.

And anything in between of course

Just an idea for you.

Not sure how far along you are in the training, but it's something you can plan out.

what is your site URL?
