What code do I need to remove Comments Rss from Wordpress?
-
Guessing I need to put something in functions.php file to remove site wide the "Comments Rss" link under "Meta" in sidebar?
-
Or you can install the WordPress SEO plugin by Yoast. If I remember well it offers the opportunity to hide the comments RSS (surely to not index it).
-
Depending on the template, I think you can just go into the admin panel and edit sidebar.php or sidenav.php or whatever it's called in your particular theme. You should just need to comment out 2-3 lines of code. Without seeing the theme or the site itself I can only tell you that much. It should be an easy fix.
Just copy all of the code to your toolbar when you make changes, so that if you delete something or make a big mistake you can quickly revert to the old file.

RSS Feed and WebTraffic
I am a weebly user and have a site (crmi-online.com) which has an RSS Feed of my current blog entries on my home page. I am struggling with the following issues... Duplicate Content - Moz shows duplicate content for my blog articles. Which are also housed here (http://www.crmi-online.com/news-and-press-releases). Could having the feed on my site be causing this issue? Traffic- My Weebly stats show that the RSS Feed is my 2nd highest ranking page at 713 views per this month. However when I compare it to the data in Moz my news feeds or the actual blog page are not one of my top ranking pages. Can someone help to explain the difference? Also, it appears that my site gets a lot of spam traffic and I wonder if removing the feed would help and give more accurate numbers. Is it necessary? - Is it necessary to have both the feed and the blog page? I want to move to one of the new weebly responsive themes after having trouble with a current custom/non-supported template. If I do that the feed will have to go since it jumbles the content in mobile view. I am not sure of the need except for the aesthetics on the home page since I dont see any correlation to traffic to the actual article/blog itself. Thanks in advance for your help!

Is my knowledge graph code wrong?
I inserted the Knowledge Graph code on our site last week and am still not seeing the knowledge graph in our search results. Is something incorrect with my code? <script type="<a class="attribute-value">application/ld+json</a>"> { "@context" : "http://schema.org", "@type" : "Organization", "name" : "IssueTrak", "url" : "http://www.issuetrak.com/", "sameAs" : [ "http://www.facebook.com/issuetrak", "http://www.twitter.com/issuetrak", "http://plus.google.com/google.com/+Issuetrak"] } script>head> I suspect it is the alignment of the "{" and "}" but others in the company say that doesn't matter. Any other explanations for why the KG isn't showing in the results? Thanks I did test it with Google's Structured Data Testing Tool and got the "all's good."

After I 301 redirect duplicate pages to my rel=canonical page, do I need to add any tags or code to the non canonical pages?
I have many duplicate pages. Some pages have 2-3 duplicates. Most of which have Uppercase and Lowercase paths (generated by Microsoft IIS). Does this implementation of 301 and rel=canonical suffice? Or is there more I could do to optimize the passing of duplicate page link juice to the canonical. THANK YOU!

Wordpress Archive pages
In the SEOMOZ site report a number of errors were found. One of which was no or duplicate meta desctions on certain blog pages. When I drilled down to find these i noticed thosepages are the wordpress autocreated archive pages. When I searched for these through the wordpress control panel through both pages and blogs they were nowhere to be found. Does anyone know how to find these pages or are they not something I need to worry about?

WordPress post indexation speed
Has anyone noticed any increases in the length of time it takes for WP posts to get indexed by Google? I have a website with the following: domain.com - CMS with lots of pages/content blog.domain.com - subdomain for the blog using WP It's odd.. the pages on the main site are indexed almost immediately. The posts on the blog are taking between 2-5 days. The blog posts are all unique content, here's an example of a recent one: blog.looksfishy.co.uk/2013/three-rivers-angling/

Subdomains at Yola, Blogger, Wordpress
If the purpose of constructing a site or blog is for SEO ie a linking microsite, is it better to keep as a subdomain or to register on its own domain. The question is how much of the Domain Authority of that site will flow through the subdomain to linked site. I note that these subdomains have PA of 1, does this answer my own question?? Thanks eg widgets.yolasite.com or widgets.wordpress.com
