http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc53/zymurgy_bucket/no-google-plus-image-snippet.jpgI feel ive waited long enopugh for it to be working by now & today i went back to the drawing board to see why does Kate Mallender have a pic & I dont. But having looked at my set up:

I cant see any difference. I admit Ive ran out of ideas, But if any SEO mozzer can point me in the right direction I'd be eternally gratefull

Hi Mat & Thank you for taking timne out to llok at my problem
When you say -"Try adding a link to your Google + page in the 'author bio' section of one of your articles"
Do you mean linking form the footer of davidclick.com to Google+ and linking back out from Google+ to my home davidclick.com page is not enough? Do i have to create a "Author bio" page in my website davidclick.com
Thanks,
David

If you have already ruled out that you set up your authorship correctly, then it is just a waiting game.
It took me almost 3 weeks before I saw it show up in the SERPs.
Test your url on this testing tool from Google to be sure you set it up right:

I submitted mine a week ago, and it also didn't appear at first.
I double checked using this: http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets and it started working quickly thereafter. Don't know if it was actually the problem with worth testing out to see if you have done everything correctly!

I had some trouble setting mine up and it ended up being my links were set to private instead of public.
Make sure all your G+ is public than list all the steps you have made I have successfully setup about 5 authorships now all work

Hi Nightwing!
I had the exact same problem a couple of weeks ago. But I seem to have resolved the issue now!
Try adding a link to your Google + page in the 'author bio' section of one of your articles. As well as a link to that article in the 'contributor to' section of your G+ page. Which I can already see that you've done the latter.
It can take a couple of days to show up but it worked a treat for me!
Best of luck

Google index graph duration in Google Webmaster Tools
Hello guys, I wonder, my sites are currently being indexed every 7 days, exactly. At Index Status page in GWT. However, this new site gets updated almost everyday, how can I ask google to index faster and more frequently/almost daily? Is it about SItemap.xml frequency ? I changed it today to Daily. Thanks!

How to know which pages are indexed by Google?
So apparently we have some sites that are just duplicates of our original main site but aiming at different markets/cities. They have completely different urls but are the same content as our main site with different market/city changed. How do I know for sure which ones are indexed. I enter the url into Google and its not there. Even if I put in " around " it. Is there another way to query google for my site? Is there a website that will tell you which ones are indexed? This is probably a dumb question.

Google autorship in specific field?
Hi, I want to ask you about something I 've read about google and authorship. It is written that it is better to show yourself as a author in a specific field. I myself have knowledge and interest in many fields - like SEO, vegan living, martial arts. And I want to be seen as specialist in all of them. Does it mean that we are limited to mark with autorship articles in only one field, in order to be seen as expert in a specific field? f.e. Should I mark with "rel=author" the articles that are about SEO because I want to be seen as author in that specific field for sure. Iif I mark with "rel=author" articles also about martial arts would these affect the understanding about my expertise in SEO?

Google Reconsideration Request (Penguin) - Will Google give links to remove?
When Penguin v1 hit, our site took a hit for a single phrase (i.e. "widgets") due to the techniques our SEO company was using (network). We've since had those links cleaned up, and our rankings have not recovered. Our SEO company said they submitted a reconsideration request on our behalf, and that Google denied it and didn't provide which links we needed removed. Does Google list links that need removing if they are still not happy with your link profile?

Google indexing tags help
Hey everyone, So yesterday someone pointed out to me that Google is indexing tags and that will likely hurt search engine results. I just did a "site:thetechblock.com" and I notice that tags are still being pulled. http://d.pr/i/WmE6 Today, I went into my Yoast settings and checked "noindex,follow" tags in the Taxomomies settings. I just want to make sure what I'm doing is right. http://d.pr/i/zmbd Thanks guys

How long does it take for Google to index a new site and has anyone experienced serious fluctuations in SERP within 2 weeks after launch?
Hi guys, I have recently launched my ecommerce jewellery site - www.luxuryfinejewellery.com - and noticed some serious swings in SERP over the last couple of weeks. From ranking No 2, 3 and 4 for the keyword 'luxury fine jewellery' on Google.com, the homepage periodically disappears from the Top 50 altogether. I thought it was the Sandbox, as I recently purchased the domain name, within the last 6 weeks, however the fact that it does rank on the 1st page some of the time is a mystery. Has anyone also experienced this? Could you provide some advice on what to expect until the the rankings settle. Thanks in advance, Satbir
