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 Increases Titles and Meta Descriptions Length
So, we now know that Google are changing the Title and Meta Desc length limits to 70 and 200 respectively. Does this mean we all need to jump to immediate attention and modify all our current pages OR, do we wait?

Fetch as Google
Are there any pros or cons with using Google fetch and submit? I realise Google will likely find it of its own accord in due course but I have found it may take a couple of weeks if at all. Fetch and submit seems to speed this process up, sometimes anyway.

Google Index/Cashe questions
I have 15k+ pages. I have 4.5k pages indexed. What relation is the google cashe to indexing pages? My site gets cashed every two days. The competition in my SERP goes 2-3weeks to get cashed. What does this indicate? Is your cashe date your last google crawl? How can I get google to crawl my site? Is there a way I can get google to crawl my site starting from an internal page. This way I could set up a better linking structure that would benefit from doing activities that get that page indexed to help get my site indexed more thoroughly...

How to properly remove pages and a category from Google's index
I want to remove this category http://www.webdesign.org/web-design-news-all/ and all the pages in that category (e.g. http://www.webdesign.org/web-design-news-all/7386.html ) from Google's index. I used the following string in the "Reomval URS" section in Google Webmaster Tools: http://www.webdesign.org/web-design-news-all/* is that correct or I better use http://www.webdesign.org/web-design-news-all/ ? Thanks in advance.

Blocking Google seeing outbound links?
Apart from rewriting the outbound url to look like a folder 'abc.co.uk/out/link1' and blocking the folder 'out' in the robots.txt file, along with also nofollowing the links as well, is there anything else you can do?
