Establishing authorship with Google for images on our sites

(1/4) > >>

Jo Ann Snover:
A couple of site owners posted about claiming authorship for our images with Google and how to get the process to work - the reason for doing it is that supposedly it helps with search ranking plus it ties all your content together in searches (because Google can show other works by you).

After trying to follow Google's directions and getting the same errors others did I thought I'd have another go at making it work. I was able to and wrote a blog post about how - note this is specific to a Symbiostock site but could be adapted for any site:

If there are questions about it, here's the thread in the Symbiostock forum to follow:

Jo Ann,

I got a little lost at this part -

4. Google+ Profile link to author page  While editing your profile, go to the Links section and add your Symbiostock author page URL as a place you are a contributor to.

I didn't even know there was a Symbiostock Author page. I have filled out all of my author settings, but I haven't seen instructions for setting up an author page. What am I missing?
