How to block Referral Spam and Countries within Google Analytics.

lol marat we shared Apaches training :) good :)

Check out the discussion here: Sessions or hits from russia?

They're probably bots, but they won't hack your site. Akismet wouldn't protect you from hacks though...it's just for anti-spam :)

Ah ha, Thanks!

You rock! Thanks for the info.

How do I get my profile pic to show when I check it on Google Snipits? I replaced my photo with a clearer one, but it still does show when I check it.

Thanks for the answer. Now we know. :-)

Hey Dude, Andy is right. I went back to my level 2 training and there is a notice saying that as of June 2014, Google no longer puts the author images beside the search description. There loss, I guess. Ha..ha

Anyway I told you I would get back when I figured it out.

Google is no longer using the picture authorship. Don't worry about it. Move on.

Thanks for asking the question. I didn't have a photo when I first made the bi-directional connection. Then I added a photo but it doesn't come up when I run Snippet. I'm about ready to delete the connection and start over. Hope someone has a good answer for you.

Hi Larry. I have been told that the pic is not necessary anymore.

You're probably right. It just gets to me when I have an issue and can't figure out how to fix it. Guess that's the engineer in me. Ha...ha

How can I edit spelling and grammar mistakes on a post I have already published on Google+?

Looks like you have already received answers...so I'll bow out.

You correct them at source it depends have you posted them to Google plus if you just done it by link it should correct itself. Try one and see!

OK. Thanks!

Thank you!

If they are on G+ I guess you have them in your site as well. If so just go through your posts, modify, update and they will appear on G+ as modified.

Ok. I will give it a whirl. Thanks!

The Google Analytics is not showing the "I ACCEPT" tab at the bottom opt the terms of agreement. Any ideas?

If you do not ask you will never know all the best

Thanks, Max. :-)

Probably a browser related issue, or you haven't checked something on the page. Hard to tell. Try refreshing the page and/or going through the process again.

Thanks, Nathaniell. "Duh" on me this time. It was a simple matter of me grabbing the agreement box and moving it up. Thanks for following up. That revealed the "I Accept" tab at the bottom of the page.

Easyazon is an automation theme that we will not host on our network. These automation themes and plugins are soo poorly programmed that they can bring an entire server down.

Automation software like this is a shortcut that will not being you any kind of success. Selling Amazon products is just fine and we teach you how to do this in the training. However, easyazon is not what you want to use to place Amazon affiliate products and links on your site.

It was great advice given by Nathaniell to stay well clear of this software.

Carson

Advice heeded.

Anything called "easy azon" is probably a plugin that automatically grabs information from Amazon, and not recommended.

Go through the training as it is laid out for you, and wait to monetize your website until Kyle has asked you to do it. I know you just got it set up, so this is definitely not something you should be installing at this point.

Ok - Thanks, Nathaniell. I will wait on this for awhile.

Just looking into this now. It may not be exactly what I described. To be honest, it might be worth looking at in the future. However, I would definitely wait til you get to level 3 in the training here in WA.
