I have my Hubpages profile verified with Google for authorship. Now, how do we do this for Windows Live (Bing-Yahoo}?
I have wondered why traffic from Bing and Yahoo have dropped to absolutely nothing for a while when Google has grown so much. I see now that they want the same verification. So, how do we do this???
I tried the advice from Windows Live, but they ask to add html or tag to your site server. (Which we cannot do) Any solution?
Yep... But maybe the answer is just.. "Ef the world - Let's become Pirates!"
How the Ell do you verify your Author Ship?
"Arghhh there she be mas'r google.... me sloop she be unauthored tho she be my Ship!"
I had help from a forum post on here to finally get authorship verified with Google. The link on my profile page with my name and the + in front of it has the link within the name to allow Google to verify my work.
Thanks Michael.. appreciate that.. wish I could help you with the Bing Thing!
I may go ahead and e-mail HP Staff and see if someone there can advise.
I am also hoping another Hubber may have done this and have some tips!

This might be a complete co-incidence, but I switched to the new profile a couple of days ago, and today Google is pretending it doesn't know me. Hubs that ranked on the first page for main keyword are not found in the first 10 pages. Even more worrying, I can't find them in Google even...
