Reader Question: Blog not being found by Google

I am posting this question for the broader community, from a Genealogy Blogger: Once I post it, I will do some research. I want to get this question for others to help with.

Cousin Russ,  

I am having issues with my blog posts on Blogger not showing up via a Google search. I've been researching this for the past week and can't figure out what the cause is. I've created a blog post to explain what is going on:  

https://heartlandgenealogy.blogspot.com/2019/02/why-not-indexed.html.

If you or any of your community have any suggestions on how to fix this issue, I'd love to hear them! 

Please read the blog post and either answer on her blog or here.

Thank you

Hi Cousin Russ, last night when working on my FTM, I deleted mygrandfather from the tree in error.

Hi Cousin Russ, last night when working on my FTM, I deleted my grandfather from the tree in error. I thought I was deleting a fact but deleted the person.

I have been trying to add him back but when I do that it makes a new tree.

I see that my grandmother and their children are still in FTM and a box that says "no name" married to my grandmother with their children.When I try to add in his name, the name disappears and still see "no name."

What should I do? Thanks!

Does anyone have experience using the online request for Social Security application papers (https://secure.ssa.gov/apps9/eFOIA-FEWeb/internet/main.jsp)? I'm trying to decide if the $21 is worth it for my great-grandmother. She was born over 120 years ago, according to the website there should be no reason they can't release the file. Just wondering how long it takes.

Thanks!

Hi Cousin Russ, I'm stepping into new territory today.

Hi Cousin Russ, 

I'm stepping into new territory today. You may have heard that I'm helping our friend and neighbor, J, who is looking for his biological family. I am ready to try to upload his AncestryDNA raw data to FTDNA. Where should I go to begin? Does he need buy anything?

Thanks in advance for the information.

Hi Cousin Russ .

Hi Cousin Russ ...I know you have done work with city directories and I have now found them for some of my ancestors also.  Question - do you consider a city directory to be Original, Derivative or Authored work?  Honestly, I could make a case for all 3 but interested to hear what others are doing.

Thank you!
