Authorship Not Displaying
-
I've been reading through a ton of articles on Google Authorship on Moz as well as a variety of other sites but still haven't solved my issue.
I set up authorship a while ago and it stopped working after a very short time. It came back and again stopped working. I use Yoast for the tags.
I realize that Google drastically decreased showing authorship photos in SERP but I've never been about to get it to show no matter what I've tried aside from that brief moment of success when I originally implemented the tags.
Rich snippet tools shows all as being a ok!
Any suggestions what I might be doing wrong?

Hi there,
The authorship is based on the personal page not the business one. I suggest you get some followers (or groups) on your personal page and use that a bit. Business page is more of a rel=publisher tag.

Hi Chris/Dennis!
Thanks for the reply! I have 2796 followers on my g+ website page....I typically post my latest posts on that page. However, I'm not terribly active on my personal g+ page.
Just regular personal posting on my personal g+ page will help?
Thanks!

Would agree With Dennis,
Make sure its working alright with the testing tool other than than that there is not much you can do. Make sure you are active on Google plus with a following and you may get it back but the authorship was decreased as you noted.
Good luck.

Hi!
Are you active on google+?
If you are, with a good following, you should get your image back.
They will email you that you are now showing up as an author or something like that.
Although this doesn't apply to everyone, this has been what has worked for me.

Mobile first - what about content that you don't want to display on mobile?
ANOTHER mobile first question. Have searched the forum and didn't see something similar. Feel free to passive- aggressively link to an old thread. TL;DR - Some content would just clutter the page on mobile but is worth having on desktop. Will this now be ignored on desktop searches? Long form: We have a few ecommerce websites. We're toying with the idea of placing a lot more text on our collection/category pages. Primarily to try and set the scene for our products and sell the company a bit more effectively. It's also, obviously, an opportunity to include a couple of long tail keywords. Because mobile screens are small (duh) and easily cluttered, we're inclined _not _to display this content on mobile. In this case; will any SEO benefit be lost entirely, even to searchers on desktop? Sorry if I've completely misunderstood mobile-first indexing! Just an in-house marketing manager trying to keep up! cries into keyboard Thanks for your time.

Google Displaying wrong URL but correct page title and description in SERPS
Hi. Our second highest performing page on Google is messed up in the SERPS. This is our login page. It always ranks high. It still does, but the URL is incorrect. Google is referencing an old redirect that was for a one off campaign from January 2014. This page has long been redirected. But now the vanity url for this page is what is displayed in Google. The link goes to our login page but once you log in it redirects you to a page saying the offer has expired instead of your account details. This is a huge issue for us. Can anyone shed some light? I'm having a rel canonical added since this page is used for a lot of vanity deeplinks.

Using Javascript to Display Responsive Images?
Hi We're making our new website responsive and are thinking of using a solution that would resize the images using javascript. So the image would be displayed like this <div data-src="/img/200x100.png">div> depending on what size fits the screen Is is okay for SEO? Or do we also need a fall back that doesn't use javascript? Thanks

Advice on display this content on my page for search engines
Hi, my website http://www.in2town.co.uk/Holiday-News is about bringing travel and holiday news to our readers of our lifestyle magazine but i am having problems at the moment with the layout. What i mean by this is, i have written content on the page as an introduction so google knows what this section of the site is about but to be honest it looks rubbish with having the introduction there and i would like to know if i am doing the right thing by having the content there for google to know what my site is about. I have tried taking it away and noticed i dropped in the rankings and when i have put it back up i go up in the rankings, can anyone please give me some advice over this issue

Page Title Not Displayed in SERPS
Why would a page title not be displayed in the SERPS? Everything appears to be formatted correctly in the code, yet the title of the company gets displayed instead of the page title? Any general idea why this could be happening?
