Are you using the All in one SEO plugin? I had an issue with it once. I ended up deactivating the plugin then reactivating..then went to features manager and making sure XML Sitemap was activated, clicked on update sitemap then view sitemap. Seems to be working fine now.

Hello, I am getting lost with the errors I am encountering in indexing and website structure. Is there a resource in or out of WA that can talk me through this? Thank you!!!<
I am not able to verify the property in Google. I've tried HTLM tag, Google Analytic account and HTML file upload. I have been unsuccessful on every attempt. Obviously, I don't know what I am doing!
Then, my question is.. has it very been indexed and if not, is that why I have zero traffic.
Thanks to all....... much appreciated.. Sue
You need to add the html meta tag for webmaster tools inside your <header>. You can do this via plugin. I am sure that Yoast SEO plugin has this option within its settings. I'm not sure about AIO SEO plugin (dont use it).
The other way is to use a plugin called header and footer scripts.. Install that and then add your html meta tag there. How Do I Know If My Site Is Indexed?
This should help you get your site verified Sue. You can also add your analytic tracking id in the same way. If this doesn't work out for you let me know.

I have taken the Universal Analytics tracking code, beginning and ending with [removed] and entered it as text in Rubix, and it is not working..
this is not where you place it... as per my last message, it needs to be placed in your header. between < head > and < /head >
THANK YOU! I was asking the wrong question. I was struggling to get the site verified.. Now it is verified and under my Google+/Analytical account. On to Bing!! Thank you!!!!!!
Hi! yes, i was able to verify on both google and bing.. I am not able to get the sitemap to work. google says your sitemap does not contain any urls and bing is still pending 2 days later..
thanks again for your help.. if you have a suggestion for the sitemap, I'm all ears!!
I use a plugin to create my sitemap.. yoast or all in one seo has this function i believe. There is another great plugin called google sitemaps which is great too
Hi, I am using what was recommended in training video. All in One SEO XML sitemap. It is not working.
Hi, go to wa keyword and put in your niche as a ? Find relevant topics that have a large tallyin the first column and a 30-50 or so in the 2nd column that will give you more of a chance for a sale. Use those words in your title/subtital and in your first few paragraphs.
what is your niche and I can help you out?
Hi. Thank you for responding. My problem is with website structure. HTML coding. And permalinks. I think!
The Htmp coding would be in your lessons and the perms links I can help you out because I had issues with them
Go to your airplane links and copy the wealthy affiliate, the 1st one, go to your post w your review and highlight your Wealthy affiliate, hit the link in your key tab that looks like a chain-a box will pop up next to it and past it in the box, click the button the right and select open in new box, click ok and hit the button the left and you are done
Hi, thank you for reaching out.. I'm not following your answer though.. My lack of knowledge, not yours!! lol.. I think you are explaining how to get a link on your page/post... Thanks again, Sue

I am struggling with the SEO coding. Is this the correct way to set up a permalink and is this what google searches are based on?
You have Pj here Sue. So I am just going to say hi and see if someone else could use some help.
Hi PJ. thank you for reaching out. I am so frustrated, I have stopped working on this site for a couple of weeks. I don't think its indexed properly.. I am getting zero traffic. I have watched videos, searched help, and still i have an error on my page. I'm at a loss.... any help would be deeply appreciated!! Thanks again, Sue
Yes Sue, this is what will show up in the Google search results. And, this is why we want our keywords within the post title - because that's how the permalinks are generated.... http : // domain / post-title
See attached.
Thank you!! To confirm: I should enter the /%postname%/ to the Custom Structure in my settings?
And the Post Name option should be clicked not Custom Structure option?
By the way, I really appreciate the help!!
Actually, they will both do the same thing. Provided /%postname%/ is in the Custom. This is simply the variable used for post-name (which is your post title)
Hi Sue - I am always thought that you only need your domain and the name of your post. Not sure if you need the part that says: single-at-50. But then again, your link works the way it is, so maybe I am wrong. It should create it for you automatically if you have "post-name" checked in your Permalink Settings. Maybe you should get a second opinion! :)
Good afternoon to you Sue. A permalink is automatically created when you write content. It is the exact location where the content can be found in your Wordpress. So, your example: http://livingpast50.com/single-at-50/internet-dati... tells me that the post (or page) Internet Dating can be found filed under Single At 50.
Your permalink does not show in Google, it only shows on your dashboard.
Good question, I hope this helps.

Hello, Please help. I cannot figure out why the Flexoffer link is not working. I install it and when i press it, it opens an error message:
%3Ca%20target%3D%27_
I think I figured it out.. this is my first link, so I pretty much do not know what I am doing. On FlexOffers, it has the link in text and a test your link button. The text was not working. at all. so then I clicked on the test your link button and up came the site. so I copied the url (?) address at top of page and copied. it works!! now I am wondering if that will still be 'my click' - associated with my account..
oh, and thank you for responding!!! sue
