Do Structured Data Errors Hurt Your Rankings
-

Thank you so much! You're amazing!

Ok, this should fix your problem. Just add the "updated" that is bolded below. That portion of the code will look like this:
%3$s
/**
- Prints HTML with meta information for the current post-date/time and author.
- @since Twenty Ten 1.0
*/
function twentyten_posted_on() {
printf( ( 'Posted on %2$s by %3$s', 'twentyten' ),
'meta-prep meta-prep-author',
sprintf( '%3$s',
get_permalink(),
esc_attr( get_the_time() ),
get_the_date()
),
sprintf( '%3$s',
get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ) ),
sprintf( esc_attr( 'View all posts by %s', 'twentyten' ), get_the_author() ),
get_the_author()
)
);
}
endif;

I found the functions.php file, but not the content.php. I didn't see the code mentioned in the functions.php file, but could it be under another name in here?
Thanks,
Ruben

It's probably in content.php or functions.php which are located in the theme folder of your wordpress installation and are probably only accessible via ftp.

It is a wordpress site, and I get the fix. However, how do I replace it? I included a screenshot of all the different choices under editor, but I'm having trouble finding it. I thought it would be under post.php, but it's not there. Any ideas?
Thanks so much for the help!

Yeah, I actually just noticed that I had this issue as well. You just need to add "updated" as a class so the html for the date on your http://www.kempruge.com/suv-driving-tips/ blog should end up as:
June 19, 2014

I assume your site is running Wordpress Ruben? This is quite common - you should be able to find your fix here. Snippets do cause a lot of problems, especially when plugins are in use. See how you get on with that.
This error occur when Google Snippet cannot find date it was published or last updated.To solve this find,**
<span < code="">
class=
"post_date">`'j F,Y'
); ?></span <>`**
and replace it with<span < code="">
class=
"post_date date updated">`'j F,Y'
); ?>``</span <>```-Andy

Keyword Rankings: One keyword dropped, dragging other rankings down. Possible or not?
Hey moz fans, So these week I noticed significant drop in rankings... But what caught my attention is that one specific keyword dropped 18 positions, and all the other just 1-3. Print screen: http://prntscr.com/7fb4g4 Do you think it's possible that the drop of that page, that went 18 positions down, brought the whole domain down? Or is it another cause?

Site rankings down
Our site is over 10 years old and has consistently ranked highly in google.co.uk for over 100 key phrases. Until the middle of April, we were 7th for 'nuts and bolts' and 5th for 'bolts and nuts' - we have been around these positions for 5-6 years easily now. Our rankings dropped mid-April, but now (presumably as a result of Penguin 2.0), we've seen larger decreases across the board. We are now 5th page on 'nuts and bolts', and second page on 'bolts and nuts'. Can anyone please shed any light on this? Although we'd fallen some before Penguin 2.0, we've fallen quite a bit further since. So I'm wondering if it's that. We do still rank well on our more specialised terms though - 'imperial bolts', 'bsw bolts', 'bsf bolts', we're still top 5. We've lost out with the more generic terms. In the past we did a bit of (relevant) blog commenting and obtained some business directory links, before realising the gain was tiny if at all. Are those likely to be the issue? I'm guessing so. It's hard to know which to get rid of though! Now, I use social media sparingly, just Facebook, Twitter and G+. The only linkbuilding I do now is by sending polite emails to people who run classic car clubs that would use our bolts, stuff like that. I've had a decent response from that, and a few have become customers directly. Here's our link profile if anyone would be kind enough as to have a look: http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/links?site=www.thomassmithfasteners.com Also, SEOMOZ says we have too many links on our homepage (107) - the dropdown navigation is the culprit here. Should I simply get rid of the dropdown and take users to the categories? Any advice here would be appreciated before I make changes! If anyone wants to take a look at the site, the URL is in the link profile above - I'm terrified of posting links anywhere now! Thanks for your time, and I'd be very grateful for any advice. Best Regards, Stephen

Why am I not ranking in Google, but I am in Yahoo and Bing?
The website in question is: www.stbarthexclusives.com Our keywords are currently ranking for both Bing and Yahoo, but we're not appearing anywhere on Google. The website is being crawled successfully, but we still don't have any results. I hoping somebody can point me in the general right direction to fix/correct this problem. Additionally, there's a decent amount of "rel=canonical tags" on the website. If that helps your evaluation. Any advice would be greatly appreciated
