Every single time I use google's rich snippet tool I cannot verify authorship no matter what I do. I linked google + to my site. I verified my e-mail. I put "Author Shantra Rees

Hi Shantra,

On your google+ page is your site shown there as a contributor?

As far as putting "author," it isn't something we tag personally. If you are using wordpress, your theme should be automatically showing as the author (not admin).

If you are listed on g+ as a contributor to your site you are verifying .... make sure the link for the site is formatted as http://yoursite.whatever as opposed to yoursite.whatever.

This may seem trivial and it is in my opinion, but I found when I changed that small thing google was able to verify me through the snippet tool.

I hope this helps!!!

Kay

Everytime I insert photographs into my page two pictures show up. Whats up with that? When I'm editing it it only shows one then I publish it and there's magically two pictures.

Don't use the image you want to insert in your post as a featured image - as starcreator has mentioned. The featured image appears as a teaser or headline image for your post. If you want a headline image, use the featured image there, and don't set an image in your post. The featured image comes up in slideshows or image carousel.

I don't have slideshows on my site. And I am not sure how to remove it from featured image? If I remove the image in inserted into my post both images dissapear.

Do you have it set as featured image? I ran into that problem with featured image.

I have had that problem too, so I am going to watch for your answer.

I cannot afford my domain name until next week but I want to get as much out of the premium membership as possible. Should I work on my free website then transfer it to my domai

Yes, absolutely!

Actually I would even go as far as to say that it's encouraged. It's better to build on your free webpage then get a domain than waiting on your domain name to build on your page :)

Yup that is just fine to do. You can transfer it over at anytime, just follow the training: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/building-your-own-traffic-producing-website/your-own-domain-your-brand-traffic

ok will do thanks so much for the link

Hey, thanks for the info to follow the training link you posted ; )

It's easy to transfer from the free to your own domain - so I should start working on that first. :) Beverley

thanks for your quick response! I'm continuing to my level two training and just eating up as much knowledge as possible until then.

Every time I go to add new pug ins on my wordpress site it just takes me to a random Bing page. Why won't wordpress allow me to install new plug in's?

Hi - You can't upload different plugins because they have had problems with spammy plugins that haven't been well maintained - so when you start up a siterubix site - they are carefully controlled.

Hi, I could be wrong on this, but I think plugins are a premium option. .. otherwise you should be able to add them from your website dashboard.

That is very strange, something is defiantly wrong there, I would put in a support ticket about this

I made my website but now I can't find my website on google AT ALL. Whats going on?

it says published 14 hours ago.

Go to your dashboard in wp.
Go to posts the all posts
You should see the posts there listed
If it has not bee posted it will say draft
At the top of that white page it has several categories - all published and drafts. Click on each one rhe see what status your post or posts has, the please tell me what it is and the we can go from there.
You should be sorted soon - but for the moment I am goig to bed as it's nearly 5.00 am
If someone else has not sorted your problem I will later

Yes it's wordpress. But I cannot send you a url because I am not a premium member

The it is not published and you need to find out why.Is it WP

Ok if you type the URLito your browser and othing is coming up, then it is ot published. Where are you hosting it and is it WP? The first thing to do is find out why it is not published and then recify it. Then move on to the next problem. If you are comfortable write the URL here ad we can see if it is published

I guess to be honest I'm not entirely sure if its been published

ok then Google has not yet indexed your pages. First things first, are you sure it is published. If you are not sure whether or not it is or not. Type in the URL and see if it shows as content.
I am not dodging Google analytics, but let's walk before we run, analytics is a learing curve. Lets start simple and then I will do a tut on how to intall Google analytics.
First of all is your page published?

When I type the URL in my browser no it does not show content

Are you saying it does not appear on page 1 or it doesn't apppear at all.

To see if it appears at all copy two sentences of a post and copy it into Google and see if it is picked up.It depends on the niche some articles are picked up immediately. You can go to your Google analytics to see if any bots have crawled your site.

For a page to rank highly you need to use SEO, PPC content and analytics. To learn how to effectively use SEO is a marathon ot a sprit.
If your page has not appeared in forty eight hours then let me know the URL

how do I go to google analytics? And it did not get picke dup with the two sentences.

Last night

How long ago did you publish it
