How to make Google and Facebook display a custom snippet for your blog posts

Posted on February 18, 2021

Have you ever noticed how Facebook and Google pull in the first few lines of text from your blog posts and use that text as the “snippets” they display in the search results?

That’s not always a problem, but it can be a big one if the snippet contains text that doesn’t accurately describe the content of the post.

For example, if you always begin your blog posts with generic content such as an author bio, the first few lines of that bio will be displayed as the snippet in the Google search results and on Facebook for every post you write.

That means every post you publish will have the same snippet, and that snippet won’t do anything to accurately describe the content of the post and entice the reader to click the link and read the post on your blog.

Luckily, there’s an easy way to get both Facebook and Google to display your own custom snippet for every post you write on your WordPress blog.  [Read more…]

Q&A: Strange posts are being published on my blog without my permission. How can I stop it?

Posted on February 1, 2021

Question from Melvin:  I have a “health and wellness” blog that I’ve been writing for over four years now. It runs on WordPress.

I write several new posts each week and the blog now has over a thousand posts on it.

About a month ago I paid a guy to make some updates to the blog to make it more attractive and add a couple of new features that I’d seen on other blogs.

With my permission he ended up changing the blog to a new theme (Divi). Now I have a big problem that I hope you can help me with.

How to quickly deactivate every plugin when you can’t log into your WordPress blog’s Dashboard

Posted on January 26, 2021

In my opinion, WordPress is the most powerful blogging platform out there. And truth be told, it’s also one of the easiest to use.

There are times however when something goes wrong and your blog simply refuses to load in a web browser.

If you’re new to WordPress it can be quite frightening the first time you see the dreaded “white screen of death” – the stark, solid white error page that WordPress displays when it encounters what it deems to be a catastrophic error.

I know how easy it is to panic when your blog won’t load, and that dreadful feeling is even more intense when you can’t even log into your WordPress Dashboard.

There are a number of things to check when troubleshooting “white screen” issues, but the first thing I always do when I don’t have a clue what’s causing an issue is to deactivate all the plugins at once to see if the problem goes away.  [Read more…]
