    Hi,

    Please help me how to display my face on google alongside my blog posts. I hear adding your face in that spot boosts traffic and I wouldn't want to miss out.

    I followed these steps and it still didn't work: http://www.copyblogger.com/wordpress-google-authorship/

    I think it might have to do with removing "Author" and "date" metadata from the top and bottom of my posts. How can I keep those removed, but show authorship on a google search? Thanks so much in advance! I love this forum!

    Test here - http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets

    And i have an article here - http://coolestguidesontheplanet.com/adding-google-plus-author-profile-genesis-theme/

    Also note that it is not guaranteed that Google will display the image but the richsnippets tool will verify that you have it set up correctly

    It also takes a couple of weeks before Google will start to display your image. They review it before it is approved. They don't want any porn or Google+ accounts set up with an image of Rover.
