- This deck will outline the basics of Google Authorship: What it is How to implement it What the benefits are for SEO How brands can utilise it Tools to help you discover authoritative authors
- Authorship allows websites to publicly connect individual authors to their respective content across the web. Implementing authorship markup places an avatar next to your articles in Google search results. This increases click-through rate and makes your content look more authoritative and trusted.
- Quote from Matt Cutts indicates that Google may use author information as a ranking signal in the future
- We already know about PageRank – How Google uses who is linking to who to identify authoritative sites but now they will be adding AuthorRank to the mix.AuthorRank is the same, but uses individuals instead of websites. This could include who is retweeting who on Twitter, who is sharing who’s content on Google+ etc.
- http://www.seomoz.org/blog/authorship-google-plus-link-building This combination of PageRank and AuthorRank creates AuthoredPageRank.SEOs expect that this will eventually become the way Google ranks web pages.
- Currently, authorship is linked to an individual, not a brand or website.Google will only show your picture in search results if it is a headshot – No logos allowedRel=publisher can be used, but only shows information box in sidebarWe expect that Google will eventually expand the publisher tag and show logos in search results, with author images at the moment
- In the meantime, brands can do a couple of things to make the most of authorship:Guest blogging on other sites. This will get your content noticed by more people and build up the author’s authority, improving the brands authority at the same time.Use a spokesperson for the brand – this could be difficult if you have a big brand, but you could be creative and use your company mascot or the CEO.
- The AuthorCrawler tool crawls links to a domain and find out who is linking to your site. This is great for discovering the thought leaders in your industry. You can use this knowledge to build relationships - Tweet your content to the biggest influencers or ask them to guest post on your site.
- Linkdex also has a great section where you can find people who have linked to your content. It displays where they have linked to you from their site as well as the authors details including Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Google+ profiles as well as email addresses. This is great for relationship building
