Google Author Authority

I never pretend that I am a SEO expert because I rarely looked into things like that – I blog because I love all techie stuff and being an owner by association to the spouse’s business – being a computer store – with games and consoles and anything gadget – I have to know some techie stuff right? But yes SEO stuff is just as important if you are a blogger and wants people to come visit you and of course you want to be noticed by advertisers too right? be it a private one or a long term advertiser – you not only have to write a good post – you also have to make sure that your blog is highly visible on the search engine.
So you asked me what are search engines? they are like google – yahoo or anywhere on the web where you to go – to look for something – that’s a search engine. And when people are looking for something or anything – they always say – lets google it – or they tell you – go google it – like my ex-doctor’s secretary told me – when I had asked what do I have to take for my low blood. Yes! go google it is a famous and favorite phrase of a lot of people – so when a favorite food blogger wrote that she had spent the entire day adding google author authority to her site – I had to find out what it is. So what is Google Author Authority?
In short and simple words for the ordinary blogger – Google Author Authority is a formula used by Lord Google know that you are a real person and not writing spam and what you write is genuine – thus Lord Google will then reward you with a higher PR. As you all know that a good PR can bring in more money – and private advertisers but there are other factors that advertisers consider before picking your blog. Contents is important but so is the age of your blog – the longer you have been writing on the same blog – that is where your blog credibility comes. Not one year or two but more than 7 yrs – I lately noticed because a blog of mine which just turned 8 yrs old had been having a lot of private advertisers looking to place ads in it.
Now Google Author Authority is not only for bloggers it is also for small business with webpages as well – that is why when I do a website for a customer – they always asked – do you do all the SEO thingie as well? because they want to be first in the search engine when someone is looking for something they carry – so for those who have added Google Author Authority to its website – than you stand to gain because it will help your site appear in more relevant search engine – without you having to do more work.
So how do you add the Google Author Authority into your site? Stay tuned for another post on it.
