Oh my God! You are a star! I've been looking for this information all over the web for the past 1 month, everyone was just copying and pasting the codes with any indepth explanation about how to get the IDs. This is great information, thank you so much.
ReplyPlease where are the links for facebook app ID, etc?
Also, how can I stop my blog name from appearing before the post title when I share my posts on social media? I want the blog name to appear after the post title or not appear at all.
ReplyThanks
Hi Jenne,
Reply1. Thanks for your feedback and appraisals :) Yes even i did struggle a lot when i wanted to implement this for my blog itself, which triggered me to make a post myself elaborate to help my fellow bloggers.
2. Regarding other app id's im sorry i totally forgot. Have it as drafts. Will post it all in a week. Thanks for remainding. Do keep following for more posts.
3. For your blogname to appear after the post title, just add the complete SEO code into your template and fill out the Red marks. This will itself give the result that you ask for.
Stay in touch... :)
I've filled out the red marks. That blog name part is not included in the red ones. Everything else is working apart from that one. It's really affecting my organic search traffic. Please help.
ReplyYour blog name in the sense? Do you mean if you share your post it will be displayed as "Post XYZ" by "your blog name" ?? if so this can be specified in that line which tells add your name
Replymeta content='YOUR NAME HERE / your name on your google+' name='Author'
Here just input your name or your blog name as per your wish. Note that this will take at least 3 days to get into effect. It took me 3-4 days to work.
I mean, the name of my blog is Care Naturele, when I share a post on twitter or facebook, it shows like this. Care Naturele: How to colour your hair safely.
ReplyI want it to show like this. How to colour your hair safely | Care Naturele.
Do you understand?
Yes jenne i got it.. Yes by this code u will definitely get that after the blog post title.If u have updated ur template today it will take atleast 3 days to reflect. Wait patiently
