Buonjourno from 10 degrees C wet Wetherby UK
2 months ago i set up my Google+ account so i could get a thumb nail pic like this:

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:
http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc53/zymurgy_bucket/authorship-tested-but-no-imagecopy-2.jpg
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
Grazie Tanto,

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

Why is google ignoring my sitelinks demotions?
I'm referring to the sitelinks that appear in the SERPs when searching for my brand name. 6 subpages come up- some found in my main navigation, some not. 3 of the 6 sitelinks have been demoted in Webmaster Tools under "Site Configuration > Sitelinks." I realize that they say in their instructions: "Google doesn't guarantee that demoted URLs will never appear as a sitelink, but we do consider a demotion a strong hint that we'll try to honor when generating sitelinks." I am just surprised they would ignore 3 of the demotions and for so long. The pages that are demoted do not have very many internal links pointing to them (unlike other pages of my site that are targeted specifically). Also, the site has tens of thousands of pages to choose from. Why are they ignoring my request? What else can I do to fix this?

How does Google determine freshness of content?
With the changes in the Google algorithm emphasizing freshness of content, I was wondering how they determine freshness and what constitutes new content. For instance, if I write a major update to a story I published last July, is the amended story fresh? Is there anything I can do in addition to publishing brand new content to make Google sure they see all my new content?

Best blocking solution for Google
Posting this for Dave SottimanoI Here's the scenario: You've got a set of URLs indexed by Google, and you want them out quickly Once you've managed to remove them, you want to block Googlebot from crawling them again - for whatever reason. Below is a sample of the URLs you want blocked, but you only want to block /beerbottles/ and anything past it: www.example.com/beers/brandofbeer/beerbottles/1 www.example.com/beers/brandofbeer/beerbottles/2 www.example.com/beers/brandofbeer/beerbottles/3 etc.. To remove the pages from the index should you?: Add the Meta=noindex,follow tag to each URL you want de-indexed Use GWT to help remove the pages Wait for Google to crawl again If that's successful, to block Googlebot from crawling again - should you?: Add this line to Robots.txt: DISALLOW */beerbottles/ Or add this line: DISALLOW: /beerbottles/ "To add the * or not to add the *, that is the question" Thanks! Dave
