Rel =" author" and/or Rel= "publisher" plugin
-
Has anyone used or know of a plugin for setting up authorship and/or publisher-ship? I have noticed that there are some plugins but I'm not sure if they are reliable. Would love to know if there's an easy way to set this up. We use All in One SEO pack, not Yoast, btw. Thanks for your suggestions!

I am using All in SEO and Authorsure plugin for Article and title meta keywords and Google Authorship respectively !
Am i doing right ! and i have some authors who wrote more than 50 aritcles for us. now they are using their own blog which we helped to create them. Can i change them to my author and give a note in the post who write it.
To add the authorship, they are now changed, not adding their email as author for our blog. (cheated us)
Can i change it to under my author profile - with a note to them (as a respect and genuine) -
Thank you, Matt. I'll check out Authorsure if Dana's solution with our All in One SEO doesn't work for our site.

Thanks, Dana. I will send you a private message. ;o)

I have a few clients using Authorsure (http://www.authorsure.com/) and they seem to like it. I use Yoast on almost all my other projects so I'm not sure beyond that. I'm sure it's not too difficult to setup though. AuthorSure would be my first bet other than Yoast.

Hi Gina,
We too are also using All in One SEO for our corporate blog which is located here: http;//www.ccisolutions.com/blog
Within WordPress, in combination with this Plug-in, you are allowed to select authorship of each blog post. As long as you have set up your users/writers with all the information needed to populate Structured Data (aka Rich Snipppets) information, this info should be communicated to Google with each post.
I don't think there are any FAQ's or guidelines telling you this, or even how to do this, but I have realized that as we publish our blog posts, Google is recognizing our Structured data as defined by who we select as the author of specific posts.
I hope this doesn't sound ridiculously vague. I can elaborate with some real world examples via private message if you like.
Dana

Switch to naked domain that has higher page authority
Brilliant Moz community! I just started here and find it so helpful and am confident that I can get an answer to this. Our domain is currently https://www.example.com. I have been wanting to move to https://example.com just for a cleaner URL. To my surprise, https://example.com has the same DA but a significantly higher page authority than our current https://www.example.com. Of course my immediate reaction is to 301 to the https://example.com but I wanted to get some advice and anything we should consider before doing this. My other question would be - how is this possible? I don't remember that we ever used that domain but we also had some rather bad developers a couple of years back. Thank you so much in advance!

How to Host Microsites: Mission Critical or Six of One / Half Dozen of the Other?
Hello, fellow Mozzers! Been racking my brain. Thanks for your help on this one! I am in the process of putting together several microsites for our marketing agency. The sites feature similar theme and design elements, but are focused on delivering a customized industry-specific visitor experience with unique navigation, brand messaging, services, case studies, etc. I am struggling with whether I should host as entirely separate websites, as subdomains of the parent site, or as separate WP installs in subfolders of the main domain. I have been leaning toward the sub-folder option to share domain authority and keep our SEO efforts consolidated. But I am also concerned that the microsite "home pages" will underperform as sub-folder pages, versus being an actual home page of a unique domain or sub-domain. Is this a six-of-one or half-dozen of the other situation, or are there some important considerations I'm missing here? Thank you for your help here!

Long Exact Match Domain, or short "Brand" domain?
I've searched and found a lot of discussion regarding the benefits of using Exact Match Domains, however I'm still unsure of what is a "too long" domain to make it not user friendly. I'm working on a new web application that help users design their own <product>. </product> Let's say that the product would be canvas paintings as an example. Would you choose the domain www.designcanvaspaintings.com if it was available? Or would you rather create a "brand" like paintify.com that is shorter and has a more "brand" feeling to it.

What is The Time/Cost For SEO In Rebranding A Large Site
From an SEO agency perspective. What would be the estimated man hours and hard cost to rebrand a large site (1000+pages)? And all that would go into it, like 301 redirects and etc.? I have a pretty good idea, of what it would take and how perilous it could be from an SEO perspective. Because of anchor text / 301 redirects / organic potential traffic loss and etc. I just don't know the man hours and hard cost would be.

Should I create a Google + account for the brand for Rel=Author
Hi, What I meant is should I use the above mentioned account as rel=author for category pages etc? It seems to me improper to use my account (with my picture) in a category page and to show my face in the SERPS for searches like "Toshiba Laptops". On the other hand, if in the SERPS it will show our Logo it might increase CTR... Any thoughts? Thanks

Separate social media accounts for 1 biz w/ multiple locations?
I'm managing a hospital that is acquiring several locations. Are there advantages to having a Facebook and Twitter account for each location? Or is it SEO smart to use one account for discussing all properties? Thank you,

Google Displays Domain / URL Above Description?
I am seeing a new SERP format from Google. (new for me at least) In the past the title tag would display as the first line of a listing, followed by description and domain / URL. Today I see the domain / URL as the second line. This is placing an emphasis on "Who". If you have a big brand or a great URL this might be helpful to your CTR. Are you seeing this? What do you think of it?
