Search Results for 'amp'

Google has been cleaning house on junk news sites (our news network sites have been in GN since it was in beta many years ago) and getting stricter on what kind of sites they will allow; specifically if you’re just copying YouTube videos and cloning stories from major news portals, stealing images without permission, and not creating “first of its kind” original content, they might not take your content. They also don’t want “made up” stuff like a psychic blog, or things which attack other groups, and they do want to see an editorial staff, content which is not “guest posts” or paid content.

You need a Google XML sitemap, Google Webmaster account, unique URL for each story — traditionally they needed a unique ID number for each story which is why you see those strings of numbers on URLs to most real news sites.

Often done as

site/12345/pretty-url-here/

or

site/pretty-url-here_12345

But they do have specific guidelines you can read – both for content and technical requirements (for example they don’t expect to grab content more than 2 days old, so you need to have “current news” every day once you submit your application). Bylines, proper dates/times, etc.

Also remember that the XML sitemap, and Google News sitemap are two totally different things. Your XML sitemap should be working for awhile (not a brand new site), and you should not ping Google News with your news sitemap until approved.

Hope that helped somebody.

I know of many websites which have been kicked out due to “low quality content” this year.

I have not yet submitted one of our sites running this theme, which we’re still messing with as it’s consolidating 3 ooooold sites into one new magazine (ga-ga.com); but one of our sites running this theme *is* in GN right now, although the site is 10 years old and pre-dates GN. We switched over with zero trouble. This theme is properly optimized for Google News as long as your content is newsworthy.

1. Thanks Lucian h1 works perfect now.

2. Yes I know it is default h3 theme tags, but I want to change only post sitltes for widget. When I change td_module.php:

function get_title($excerpt_lenght = '') {
        $buffy = '';
        $buffy .= '<h3 itemprop="name" class="entry-title">';
        $buffy .='<a itemprop="url" href="' . $this->href . '" rel="bookmark" title="' . $this->title_attribute . '">';
        if (!empty($excerpt_lenght)) {
            $buffy .= td_util::excerpt($this->title, $excerpt_lenght, 'show_shortcodes');
        } else {
            $buffy .= $this->title;
        }
        $buffy .='</a>';
        $buffy .= '</h3>';
        return $buffy;
    }

All post titles transform to h3 on my homepage.

For example I want to:
-> widget post titles (h3)
-> article post titles (h2)

It is bad for SEO, when I have twenty titles h2 and zero h3.

If the <p> tag has any “style” content, the inline adsense ad doesn not show at all.

Content of many posts are given justified style on my site. Here is the example:
http://www.igeeksblog.com/put-apps-on-the-notification-center-using-weespaces-cydia-tweak/

Is there any way to post Article Top ad slot after number of paragraphs instead of exactly below title?

One more thing, I experience drastic down in CTR and CPC in adsense since I have changed theme to Newspaper. Is there any tip to improve CTR?

Another important thing, Can I block specific third party scripts to load from responsive mobile site?

Hi ! Thanks for the quick answers.

@Lucian I inspected (as you told me) the select menu for custom field but strangly no traces of my custom (_mp3_url) field here too.. (for curiosity, I don’t get why some custom fields are shown in the select, some in a metabox and some are not ? )

@Christopher Simmons or @Lucian, I inspected the function.php of the old theme, no trace of custom-fields definition. If I want a metabox for my custom field should I recreate it ? And if yes where can I do that ? Is there a good way to do it ?

Thanks a lot for your help.
Looking forward to read you (or an other developper angel who wants and can help me :).
