Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Andy, do you mean that you linked your website back to your personal Google+ profile with Rel=Publisher, and successfully verified it? I'm asking because I haven't heard of this actually working, as Google states Rel=Publisher is for brands, and Rel=Author is for, well, authors. I have only seen Rel=Publisher successfully used to associate a Google+ Page with a website, and Rel=Author successfully used to associate an author's content (on various websites/blogs) with their personal Google+ profile. Looking forward to hearing more about this from you! Thanks, Christy

Hi Rajesh! Has your question been answered?

Hi Laura, has your issue been resolved?

Hi Mark, has your question been answered?

And the rich snippets testing tool still shows that your authorship is verified for the pages that are showing in the SERPs?

If so, run through this checklist, posted in GWT Help: http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1306778 and see if there is anything you might have overlooked (like installing Authorship code twice, this is a pretty common issue.) If you still don't see any issues there, you might try running a few different queries for different type of content you have verified Authorship for. Google states that they only show Authorship information for the most relevant queries. What they deem as the most relevant queries can and does change. I've noticed that my Authorship information/photo will show for some keyword searches and not appear for others (alongside the same pages in search results). Searching for the URL almost always shows information.

Hi Daniel - Do you mean that your personal Google+ profile photo is no longer showing in the SERPs, period?

Hi Sachin,

Good news: Facebook Insights now offers limited data for referral traffic to your Page. To see how many visits (not unique visitors) were referred to your Page from outside Facebook, access Facebook Insights for your Page, then click on the "Reach" tab. Scroll to the bottom of the page, and you will see a list of websites that referred visits to your Page during the specified time period. This information, which also tells you how many visits came from each external website, is located under the "Visits to Your Page" graph in the "External Referrers" column.

Please take a peek at your Insights, and let us know how that works for you!

Cheers,

Christy

You've received some great responses, Project#Labs! Do they answer your question?

Hi Larry, has your question been resolved?

Hi Aaron - You have a couple of solid answers here. Has your issue been resolved in GWT?

The Rel Author tag is used to link content created by an individual (on a blog, for instance) to  the author's personal G+ profile. Andy is correct, the author needs to specify in their G+ profile that they area contributor to the site (thereby linking back to the site where their content is) to complete the author verification process.

You should not use Rel Author in conjunction with Google Places.

Hope this helps!
