Hey everyone, I’m having a problem with writing a comment. Every time I try to post it, the comment doesn’t appear, and it always says the same thing, like I never tried. I’ve attached a screenshot to show what I mean. Has anyone else experienced this? Any tips on how to fix it or get my comment to show up?
Hello!
Are you posting the comment on the WA site for the website requesting comments or directly on the article? It looks like it's directly on the article itself, and for that you won't get WA credit for.
Make sure that you post your comment in the area I circled in red on the WA page to get credit for it through WA.
If I have totally misread your pictures, please let me know and I will try to help further.

Hi Kyle,
All the best for 2025. Plse help. When go to "view my website" It takes me to "welcome to your P website. When i go into my back office my 2 posts logo//about me/mark/pp are there. Am i doing something wrong or is it not sinking - my site is run2wellness.com
Your website is looking fine to me, refresh your browser. See the attached screenshot of what I am seeing Mark.
Let me know if you have any further issues. ;)
Great lesson Kyle,
I'm still waiting on a new laptop and will be settling into the depths of WA and performing comments very soon for credits. I'm actually waiting for boxing day specials to see if any are avail.... In the meantime I'm publishing new content each day to stay ahead of the curve when the time comes - content creation and the platform is easy on my phone, some of the other tasks like adding pictures from the back office are a little tougher. Thanks again for another value added lesson!

Thanks Kyle. I learned a lot. I never thought that comments would be treated like content by Google indexing. Not only that, but they enhance the site engagement score.
I only have 5 articles on my site. I will start requesting comments and leaving them to see if that helps my site to get indexed. How do I find out if my site has been indexed? Thanks
You’re gonna find out if your website has been index directly within your Google console account, so make sure you keep an eye on that, and it will tell you which pages in which keywords your index and ranked under.
Thanks!
Absolutely!
