This question is about the Sitehealth stats. Putting it under "The Wealthy Affiliate Platform" seemed the most appropriate place.

Dear Moosit!
Your site trust will increase with a time. If you regularly write and publish posts, answer the comments, the site rank will going up.

Ask to comment your web here in the WA community and comment different webs by yourself. Always reply to comments!
Surely it will help)

Wish you good day!,

Hi :)

Maybe WA hasn't updated your site's results for a few days. It sometimes happens to me when I have plenty of feedback, but the percentage hasn't increased. It would be awesome if the results were in real time as we worked on our sites ;)

Engagement with visitors and website feedback at 0?

Here is what I have for sitehealth stats:

publishing frequency: 70%...I publish about 3 new posts per week
content quality and variety: 100%
visitor engagement: 90%

Hi Chris and Upsgirl:

Thanks for your help. Changing the theme was not as hard as I thought it would be. Could you take a look at my new mobile-friendly site at http://shortgameprowess.com

My only concern is that the menu on top seems very small, but if that's a trade off for being mobile friendly, that's ok with me.

Oh yes...cool! You're welcome! Let me see...

WHOA! Is this the same guy who asked a lot of questions when he started? I thought to myself, SO I'LL SHARE IT NOW, will he make it? You know I am kidding! I remember suggesting you stick with the training and to trust us...that we were here for you! What a lovely website!
So glad you changed Themes. This one is oerfect for your golf website.
"Staying Balanced With Your Golf Swing"...ONLY Post showing "admin" so just change that.
You write a lot of great content. You shouldn't have a problem engaging with your visitors. Nice job!
I checked 5 of your Amazon links and they work. Good!
You definitely need to fill the white space on the right side. Do you know how to add widgets to the sidebar?
Go to Appearance.
Menus. You will see items on the left and right sides. You want to click and drag FROM THE LEFT to the right.
Select TEXT.
Title the new TEXT box.
Now, you can add the copied Amazon link and SAVE. Also, you can click and drag those right-side bars into whatever order you want and then SAVE.
Your social links are misaligned too. Go through and maybe delete some white space...I think that will get the job done.
Oh and I still love the large image of you in your About Me Page.
You're on your way! Keep going and ASKING QUESTIONS...lol!

Thanks, upsgirl. I did change that one post from admin to john. No, I've never used widgets, but I'll start on this sometime tomorrow. Can I make widgets of the affiliate videos too? For example, the putting video is just a brown box. Can that be a widget?

Hi again upsgirl:

I've put links to what I'm selling in the white space on the right side. Can you tell me how to get the pictures to line up a little better? Also, the pictures seem a bit too close to the text. I don't have an "align to the right" that some themes have. It is just a given that the picture will appear on the right side.

If there is any way I can move the pictures at least an inch to the right and aligned properly, I'd appreciate hearing about it.

Have a nice weekend.

John

Cool...yes, it can.

There is a better option. Choose WIDGETS from the Amazon page. Choose from one of the 12 or so options. You will insert them the same way. Gallery or Scrolling, for example...beautiful display.

I sometimes have the same questions, and I do work on my site everyday. Don't even get me started on the rankin system.

Hi Chris:

Kyle mentioned using Google sitemap in one of his tutorials and I just submitted the one for Bing/Yahoo which he mentioned. I put that I had a bing sitemap under all in one seo, so I know I need that one.

According to webmaster tools, my site is not mobile friendly. I have the free version of wptouch mobile.

What is involved in changing themes?

Thanks.

John

It's easy. While in Edit, go to Appearance.
Themes.
See Featured, Popular, New, and Latest?
If you click each of the four, you will be able to see your choices.
Click to Add New.
Click to Install.
Click Live Preview. You will see your prior content pulled over to the new.
If you like it, click ACTIVATE.
Save your changes.
You can always go back anytime. Try not to spend too much time in there. You have access to about 3K Themes...way too many cool Themes.

Use the site map in All in one SEO. Make sure it is activated, then update and it will send to Bing and Google when you update it. Update after each post is published.
Look for a Theme that is Mobile
Just activate the new theme, look at what it will look like You can always change theme later if you find one that is better, just need a mobile one now.
See comments above on Theme
John

All in one SEO will create sitemap, do you really need the google one.
Is your theme not mobile friendly if not change themes and get rid of the mobile plug-in .
I create my backup to my Google drive one a week do you need this plug-in to do that for you
You have two plug-ins for Facebook do you need these
just trying to answer your questions on plug-ins
John

I can tell you that site trust is gained over time. My 2 year old site is at 100% while my 1 year old site isn't quite there yet.
I don't fully understand the metrics used for the others.

Currently, Google Analytics shows that I am getting about 10 site visitors per day. It's also showing that the average time spent at my site is about 1 minute 20 seconds. My bounce

Your G+ shares are only viewable by you and people in your circles, so if you search your keyword and see your G+ on page one, that doesn't reflect the true ranking. Use the jaaxy keyword tool, or search when you're not logged into Google to find your true ranking.

Keep writing articles and you'll get more traffic.

Also, it doesn't look like you're using keywords in your post titles. I can't imagine many people search for "Use different clubs for chipping" for example.

Why would you imagine a site with as few as twelve articles would have 100 visitors a day? Did you do your keyword research because your bounce rate is very high?

Hi moosit, you can't loose faith mate, 12 articles is still very early. A trust worthy site is somewhere between 50 to 100.

Who are you finding the terms that you are on page one for?

Take a look in webmaster tools it will show you how many search impressions you are getting and for what terms. It will also tell you your average page ranking for those impressions.

Do you share your pages on WA and ask people to comment? This also builds credibility in you site.

Keep up the good work - John

First about G+ ranking, it can be as you say, but to be sure it must be done incognito (three-bar tab in the upper right corner) to get some realistic picture about ranking.
Internal linking may reduce bounce rate.
