The problem appears to be your display in your own browser and not other people's. Site Support should fix!

Have you made your links with Pretty link? When you add spaces between the words, it gives you % 20 in the URL

The is the web representation of a space. I used to see this a lot in web days of long ago. I am not sure why you are seeing it. I'm not see any in the post or your website. Perhaps the tech guys can help on this one.

the problem must be fixed because I see "GET THE SKINNY ABOUT"

Site title looks great to me.... I don't see any issues at all right now!

Suzette I suggest you contact Technical support. I am sure you will get some other answers here as well, but Tech support will assist you immediately and they will fix it for you hopefully.

You can just copy and paste the question you have placed here in your support ticket.

Let me know how it went:)

Thank you, I will try that. I am getting so frustrated trying to figure this out. I have three other sites that this has never happened to, but I am using a different type of theme. That is why I thought it may the current problem I am having.

When I go and click on the link within the comment, It is not going to my website page. UGH

I hope it got fixed. I was amazed at how quickly tech support helped me and fixed my problems last week.

Hi gang, I just tried to do a screenshot of one of my WA blogs to share on Instagram. The image looked fine until I hit the crop button. The image came out blurry.

Hi Suzzette! I'm really glad you asked this question. I've had that happen to me before too. I'm using Monosnap. What are you using? I took screenshots for a post a few days ago and they were blurry also. I just thought it was because of my old monitor. I put them in my post anyway. @tommysedge has a great answer that I'm going to try out. Hope you got your issue resolved. Alanna

Screenshots typically are not high resolution, so if you expand the size of the image it will loose quality. When I do one, I normally zoom in on the page in my browser to make my target area as big as possible.
If you are doing a screenshot on a tablet you may find the image is quite small to start with.

Thanks Tommy, I appreciate the reply. It is the first time I tried a screenshot and it turned out BAD LOL. But hey, you don't learn if you don't try and ask questions right?

Thank you for the suggestion. I will try what you suggested on my next attempt.

No worries, good luck with v2. :)

Hi @tommysedge! I've had a similar problem and will try your idea! Thanks! Alanna

Great! Hopefully, it works for you. Let us know how you get on.

Keyword, Niche and Market Research

While using the new Jaaxy keyword research tool I noticed that the phrase I would like to use has words that are not bold like other words in the phrase I would like to use.

It does that because it's just trying to remind you what your main search was. The unbolded words show you all the different ways you can use your initial keyword phrase with.

Whatever keyword or keyword phrase you'll be using, it will include the entire phrase, all the words in that phrase (bold and unbold).

Thank you Grace, that throw me off a bit.

No worries and you're welcome. :)

If I was to modify, change, update, or add to a post or page, is it okay to change the publish date and time before updating it?

Yes of course you can, it's your website after all. You are the boss. So no worries. Do as you wish.

I like your reasoning! I am my own boss, I love being my own boss. Time to start owning that fact!

You own your time as well.
All the best my friend.

Yes you can, and in fact I sometimes do that, for two separate reasons. Sometimes I am too busy to take the time to create a whole new post, and also need to post, to keep the site current and active. So I will go to an older post, and simply change the posting date. Google considers this a "new" post, and will consider your site as being currently updated. I don't do that often, but it is one way to kind of "cheat" when you are frazzled with too much multi-tasking.

The other reason is when I have found new information to share that pertains to an older post. In that case, I will update the post with the new info, and change the posting date to current. It doesn't matter about the older comments being dated from way back, as long as you mention in the updated post that you have reposted now, to include the new information. In this case, the more current posting date is important to readers, letting them know that the info they are reading is up to date.

Awesome tip letting your readers know that the post has been updated with new information.

Yep you can change the publish date of any page or post

Do you know how to transfer the comments along with it? They are gone after the revamp Leo. And changing the dates of the comments too doesn't help.

What happens with the date in comments if you have them?

I just "revamped" an older page I exported from an older site that I am wishing to get rid of and imported into my new site. This page only had one comment on it and the date remained the same.

You need to collect new comments again Jovo.
I have tried to change the dates of the comments, but they don't display.

Thank you.

I revamp posts of 2+ years old, so I believe the comments have done their job.

Are you saying that you are deleting comments?

I don't want to answer for Loes and will look forward to her response, but I would think not. Why would you want to delete the comments that are already posted?

For one post, I did delete 1 comment, but now I am choosing to revamp posts without comments

I have tried everything to make the comment on the revamped post visible again, but I didn't succeed. So I have trashed the comment at last, because it's useless to let it stay somewhere in between the post and the comment section, without display on the website

So now I am confused, (what's new right?) So If I am to revamp post and pages that DO have older comments, do you recommend deleting them?

I recommend revamping posts without comments. But if you choose to revamp posts with comments, what is the use to keep them, when they will not appear anymore on the website under the article?

My situation is different. The older comments are still on the old posts and pages because I exported them from an old website and imported them into a new website. Did the 301 redirects, and now I am working on updating them for better SEO and adding more content and images.

So you don't have any comments to be worried about

Just did that

Thank you my friend. I will check out that link.

I just left you a question on the link you provided but I will ask here as well.

After we revamp our old posts or pages and go to Goggle Fetch, do we also want to index that as well or just do the Fetch?

I am not totally sure about that, I always do

Well that is a good enough answer for me Loes, Thank you for all your help :)

I am aware that a plugin is not necessarily needed to do 301 redirects but I not comfortable at all messing with any code.

I recently did one 301 redirect with this plu

Suzette - I use Yoast SEO and it has a really easy to use function where you can perform 301 redirects and other types of redirects.

My best guess it to have a look at Google Webmaster tools to see if the post has moved.

Thank you Patrick, I am using Yoast as well. Are you using the Premium version?

Yes I'm using premium. That was one of the features I wanted when I upgraded.

I recently changed my domain name and use 301 redirect and I dont get any errors in search console.

Did you use a plugin Gordon?

Yes The plugin is 404 to 301.

I looked at that plugin as well but it hasn't been update in 12 months. Since it works well for you I may just give it a shot any way.

Anyone else using a different plugin? If so, how does it work for you?
