Great, thanks!
-
Ahaa, Sure.. Thanks ...
Seems have not recvd notification for your reply in that thread - hence could not revert on that. Reverting on that thread now !!

Hi Brian,
Sure. Thanks. However, We tried this earlier. Will do it again. Infact there are other sections like News & Reviews too - which has only single link to Google+ Profile - but unfortunately doesnt work to show author photo.
-
Hi Gagan - Did you see the response I left you on your original question at http://moz.com/community/q/authorship-photo-not-showing-in-for-last-6-months-now? I included a couple screencaps of Authorship showing for select searches.
-
One thing I noticed is that your using the
rel="author"
tag twice on the blogs you provided, one to link to your internal profile and one for your Google+ profile. I would try removing the tag from the internal link and leave it for the Google+ link and see if that makes a difference. -
Hi Angelos,
Thanks for writing in,
Unfortunately - still it has not worked up !! The Photo still not coming
Clueless now !!
-
Hey Gagan
just wanted to check out if everything worked out for you.
-
Ok, changed photo as advised
Keepin' fingers crossed - will let know
-
Yes, its showing in Rich Snippets and for over 3 months
The site gets crawled daily.
-
Hey Gagan,
Ok try to use a photo with a brighter background. I quarranty it will work. Give it a day or two too.
Don't try any tools or anything, its that simple and 100% sure.
-
Hi Gagan,
Try using the Rich Snippets testing tool http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets let me know if you can see the photo there when you type in the sample URL. If not then there is an issue with your code setup as this pulls fresh on each request.
If however you do see it there then it's possible that it's an issue on either your local cache or how your site is caching on Google. Are you sure the latest edits are live and crawlable?

Where Is This Link Coming From?
According to Moz Analytics we have a link coming from here: http://www.grayshadowfinancial.com/ The anchor text is earthquake prone map. I can't find the link, but if I cntrl+f "earthquake prone map" it shows in the find box, even though I can't see it. I'm guessing this is some spam tactic and they are hiding this with their CSS? Is there anyway I could see it? Best, Ruben

Are link directories still effective? is there a risk?
We've contracted a traditional SEO firm, mostly for link building. As part of their plan they want to submit our site to a large list of link directories, and we're not sure if that's a good option. As far as we know, those directories have been ineffective for a long time now, and we're wondering if there is the chance of getting penalized by google. When I asked the agency their opinion about that, they gave me the following answer - Updated and optimized by us - We are partnered with these sites and control quality of these sites. Unique Class C IP address - Links from unique Referring Class C IP plays a very important role in SEO. Powered by high PR backlinks Domain Authority (DA) Score of over 20 These directories are well categorized. So they actually control those directories themselves, which we think is even worse. I'm wondering what does the Moz community think about link directory submission - is there still something to be gained there, is there any risk involved, etc. Thanks!

Has google done well with these search results?
I am struggling to grasp the new logic behind google, my understanding was that they wanted to return more related searches so that the search matched the results giving people exactly what they are looking for from trusted suppliers. However I work in the vacation rental niche and I have found that the individual long tail searches have started to become less valuable as they are no longer giving the exact property. Here is a screenshot of the top 10 results for the key phrase "10 bedroom villas in quinta do lago" Position 1 & 2 are good results and would be expected however the next 7 positions are completely not related to the search, yes it is quinta do lago. But I am looking specifically for a 10 bedroom villa, none of these pages offer 10 bedroom villas. I actually found my listing outside the top 20 and mine is a 10 bedroom villa in quinta do lago. Does anyone have anything that can enlighten me on this? Thanks Andy 0bqdRJi

Does Backlinks from User Profile Page Still Matter
Though, lot of algorithmic changes, updates have happened. However, backlinks from quality source or trusted sites has hardly lost its importance and thats why Open SIte Explorer or Majestic seo is still there to find quality of backlinks, trust factor and authority factor of the backlinks. I need to know does having backlink (dofollow) from Profile Page - still matters and if yes - will a do follow backlink from Moz Profile Page or any authority site or forum page, having dofollow link from user profile page - does it still count as a mark to authority of your site.
