Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I've noticed that when logged into Google, content shared by people within my social graph is being identified by a "(name of person) shared this". And, content shared by people not within my social graph (but people who have a Google+ account) is being identified with their picture.

My questions are:

• Is this "(name of person) shared this" content showing on first page of results because they're in my social graph. Or would this content have been on 1st page regardless of whether it had been shared?

• Why is google identifying who is sharing content when they're not in my social graph?

Thank you!

Thanks, dignan99. I'm currently hosting with Bluehost and their customer service is AMAZING. However, they haven't been able to help me with this issue since, as they say, wordpress is unique. That said, I didn't have all of this great information back then so I'll revisit it with them at your suggestion and see if they can help.

Thanks again for the suggestion.

Thank you, Alan. I will contact both.

Alan & Ryan, I'm the Lara referred to in this thread. I'm wondering if either of you can recommend someone who can help me with the transition I need to make - i.e. move ready2spark.com and all applicable posts (currently my blog) to ready2spark.com/blog. My web designer is not comfortable with it and I'd like to ensure it's done correctly. Would you also mind letting me know a range of what something like this would cost?

Thank you in advance.

Lara

Thank you

Thank you, Felicity. Do you have any recommendations for someone who can do the changes?

I'm so glad I upgraded to an SEOmoz pro account. You guys are awesome! Thank you for outlining the options.

Thank you so much for your feedback. I appreciate your fast response! I also found this page here on the SEOmoz blog: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/seo-guide-how-to-properly-move-domains (you touched on a few of these great points).

PS - And thanks for pointing out it's not a domain change. (I'm still learning

I have a self-hosted wordpress blog that I have been authoring for 5 years. It resides at www.ready2spark.com.

I have built a static wordpress website (fyi - it's a different wp theme from the blog) to promote my company, named READY2SPARK. The site location is temporarily http://www.ready2spark.com/staticwebsite. Since this will be my main company website, it makes the most sense to have the static site reside at www.ready2spark.com and the blog reside at www.ready2spark.com/blog (or, at least, I think).

I'm hoping some of you experts can let me know what the issues with changing my domain would be or provide suggestions on what the optimal architecture should be.
