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.

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.

13 tips for speeding up and securing a WordPress blog

Posted on January 24, 2021

There’s a strong consensus among those in the blogging world that WordPress is hands-down the best blogging platform out there.

It’s ease of use, amazing flexibility and natural friendliness towards search engines makes using WordPress a true no-brainer in my opinion.

But that being said, it’s extremely easy to build a WordPress site that’s cumbersome to use, irritatingly slow to load and inherently insecure if one just throws a bunch of “pieces” together to create their blog.

And as you might imagine a slow loading and insecure blog tends to drive away visitors in droves, keep your pages from ranking well in the search engines and make your blog susceptible to hackers.

On the other hand, it’s actually pretty easy to build and maintain a WordPress blog that loads very quickly and is (more or less) immune to hacking attacks if you know how to go about it. Here are a few tips that can help…  [Read more…]
