That is, whoever posts on the blog, Google regards Frank as "its author" - just the way its algorithm works I suppose.<BR/><BR/>There are ways you as co-publisher of the blog can optimise your search in Google, via submitting relevant metadata associated with your publication (eg your name in this case). I am not sure how to go about this but a publisher (of newspapers or books, say) should do, or there are probably loads of independent advice services to help you optimize search.<BR/><BR/>Or possibly Frank could alter the settings in Google when he registered the blog with Blogger - for example one can register a single-author blog or a group blog. Maybe he could re-register Books Inq as a group blog with the two of you named. I think he'd have to do this, though, if he registered the blog originally.<BR/><BR/><BR/>What you probably need is a 14-year-old person who will inarticulately mumble at your computer for an hour or so, then all will be fixed but you will never know why.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
