Google Authorship Problems
-
Hi,
I seem to be having a few problems with getting google authors set up on Wordpress. I've set up my G+ account, put the link to my blog http://appointedd.com/blog/ and then registered it on the yoast plugin.
However, I'm not sure it's set up correctly and I can't seem to be able to get it to work.
I'm hoping a fine someone here has experience in this as I'm a little flustered.
thanks.

Thanks for all the help! Hopefully that'll be it sorted now. Cheers!

It looks like your rel="author" is set up to your /post on your Google+ and not your Main Google+ Page.
On the plugin use this
https://plus.google.com/104817850948530040093
Instead of this:
https://plus.google.com/u/0/104817850948530040093/posts
Not sure that's it but I would definitely make sure that is changed.
Also, On your Google plus profile you can add "Contributor To" under Account > Me on the Web > Review Your Google+ Profile (click the bottom link named "open your profile" > under LINKS on the right hand sidebar you'll see a section call Contributor to > Add a link to that section
Lastly,
I would also go to Google's Authorship Verification if you haven't done so. https://plus.google.com/authorship
I also really like AuthorSure plugin to help this. It shows your profile on each particular page. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/authorsure/
Hope this helps.

Google AMP or CDN?
Hello. I'm running a CMS that cannot currently support both CDN and Google AMP. I would have to choose one or the other. Does anyone have any insight on which may be the better choice until I can figure out how to have both? I installed CDN first to reduce the time it took for my pages/images to load. I'd like to have AMP because it can do the same, and perhaps be a little more Google friendly (their product). I would appreciate any thoughts. Thanks! Steve

Strange ranking occurrences in Google (NL)
Mozzers, I got a question for all of you. Recently (about 3 months ago) I launched a renewed website for a costumer of mine. Since then rankings have been improving and some decreasing a little but overall it went quite allright. _Still, we now have some issues with some new pages and I really don't know what to do any more. _ The Case:
On-Page Optimization | | JarnoNijzing
For starters lets say the company sells vacuum cleaners. We now make pages for specific product ranges e.g. Miele Diamond vacuum cleaners which in turn tells something about this product range and has links to different pages of that series, for instance the Miele Black Diamond Silent Vacuum Cleaner. Why did we do this? We already ranked for specific product pages but also wanted to rank for more general terms and thus product ranges. What happened? We now rank perfectly well for the product pages itself but for some reason the Miele Diamond Vacuum Cleaners page doesn't rank at all or not as it should. Why is this strange? Because we applied the exact same tactic for some other product ranges on the same website and it worked like a charm (part of the reason why we started to do this for all product-ranges). I could really use some help here. If you want I can message you the pagelink in PM but I won't post it here for several reasons. The Vacuum Cleaners in this example or not the real products though but used as an exemplar. I really do hope to hear from you with some advice or request for more information. Regards

Does a page's url have any weight in Google rankings?
I'm sure this question must have been asked before but I can't find it. I'm assuming that the title tag is far more important than the page's url. Is that correct? Does the url have any relevance to Google?
