If I use the same photo on two websites, under the same domain, will Google consider that duplicate material?
Hi Stephen, I doubt that you need to worry about it, as there are a lot of images that are used hundred of times on various websites. If really concerned about it, use a photo imaging tool to create a new copy with a different file format, so that you have maybe a .jpg and a .png of the same image. Give them a different file name,(use keywords in the name), and different alt tags with different but related keywords in it. Best wishes on your endeavors.
Can i use the same photo on two similar websites?

Thanks for the feedback. I wasn't too worried, I just didn't want to create any trouble for myself.

I was doing research on Google Authorship and several options popped up. I looked through a few, and everything looks good, but each plug-in covers something a little different.
I have Sahifa theme but it is not for free, which does all meta tags for me so no plug ins needed. you do not have to use any plugins jsut add link to your G+ on the post itself if your theme doesnt do it. best option will be to actually test it yourself. Add G+ link to your profile in WP. I added in both places. then go to https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets and do life test and see if there are any issues
it is not that im not suggesting to use any plug ins, but you need to take in to consideration that plugins slow down your site and if your theme handle authorship well, then you do not need to bother about it. Just add G+ details in your profile and do a as i mentioned before, if no errors and authorship setup why bother with plugin?

I know this is a negative subject but I was wondering if I should be concerned about content theft. Not necessarily from the community but from others. If it is something to kee
Thank you both very much. Actually you answered two of my questions in one. The second: I was actually wondering what Google authorship was and what it did. Well hell, that's three.
Hi There,
Best defense is to set yourself up on Google tools with Google Authorship then when you write content you will credit your content as being the original and others will get busted!.

This is correct. Google will know who published it first with that and those that copied will be the ones penalized.

Is there a limit to the amount of keywords you can use for a single niche website? Is there a limit where it becomes overbearing if too many?
It can come across very badly with too many. Google will some how put you out of business! :( Don't load it up!
One in title of post, one in first paragraph, and that is it! That is all it takes to make it work. It does not get any better if you ad more then this, and once you ad too many it becomes detrimental. Members have tried different amounts and show there to be no difference between loading with five verse using 2,3. Sometimes members put one in the last paragraph, also, which is fine.
It is far better for it to read correctly, and google knows when it does, then to have more then the one in title, and in the first paragraph. Members all do it differently but like I said, the results do not vary. Unless you use too many.
Same results with only two as adding 5. Except after five KW placements your article is going to start sounding somewhat choppy. Anything over 3 in my book and from researching this very thing you speak of....you are going the wrong way. So yes you can add too many.

Not to familiar with blogging. What are the "tags" that are required to publish the blog?
I usually put my keyword in the tag. Put what your post is about. Add tags to it. if it's on let's say "DIY Solar Panels", one tag I would use would be just that, then I'd use solar panels, at home projects, diy so on and so forth.
I hope this helps
