Rel =" author" and/or Rel= "publisher" plugin

[gfiedel]

Has anyone used or know of a plugin for setting up authorship and/or publisher-ship? I have noticed that there are some plugins but I'm not sure if they are reliable.  Would love to know if there's an easy way to set this up. We use All in One SEO pack, not Yoast, btw. Thanks for your suggestions!

Hi Gina,

We too are also using All in One SEO for our corporate blog which is located here: http;//www.ccisolutions.com/blog

Within WordPress, in combination with this Plug-in, you are allowed to select authorship of each blog post. As long as you have set up your users/writers with all the information needed to populate Structured Data (aka Rich Snipppets) information, this info should be communicated to Google with each post.

I don't think there are any FAQ's or guidelines telling you this, or even how to do this, but I have realized that as we publish our blog posts, Google is recognizing our Structured data as defined by who we select as the author of specific posts.

I hope this doesn't sound ridiculously vague. I can elaborate with some real world examples via private message if you like.

I have a few clients using Authorsure (http://www.authorsure.com/) and they seem to like it.  I use Yoast on almost all my other projects so I'm not sure beyond that.  I'm sure it's not too difficult to setup though.  AuthorSure would be my first bet other than Yoast.

Thanks, Dana. I will send you a private message. ;o)

Thank you, Matt. I'll check out Authorsure if Dana's solution with our All in One SEO doesn't work for our site.

I am using All in SEO and Authorsure plugin for Article and title meta keywords and Google Authorship respectively !

Am i doing right ! and i have some authors who wrote more than 50 aritcles for us. now they are using their own blog which we helped to create them. Can i change them to my author and give a note in the post who write it.

To add the authorship, they are now changed, not adding their email as author for our blog. (cheated us)
Can i change it to under my author profile - with a note to them (as a respect and genuine)
