Welcome to the Q&A Forum

DK, You can follow Christy's advice with the Yoast plugin. If you are wanting to have the Author image show for the Home page then select that option in the Yoast plugin OR you can simply add a link to the Home page as explained in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgFb6Y-UJUI. As Authorship has become more recognized and can increase click through rates, people have been rushing to implement for ALL pages, including the Home page. So, to your question, it's recommended to attach to your Home page if you are the only author to the website. If you are not, then leave the Home page out of it and connect Authorship to your individuals articles or pages. Hope this was the answer you were looking for. - Patrick
