    In your css, you can try adding:

    .stb-custom_box{
    margin:0 auto;}

    Also, google considers link buying/pr juicing schemes to be outside their guidelines. If caught you could get de-indexed and banned from the Goog and you could also get any adsense money revoked.

    I know you disagree with Matt Cutts but the posts are helpful. Of course what you do with your website is your choice.

    Ah, I see what you want to do. Sorry for not understanding you correctly. Your first step is to make the site to allow search engines, via your privacy settings.

    This one could work: https://blogulate.com/content/nofollow-blacklist-plugin-for-wordpress/

    But it’s from 2008. Be careful with old plugins as there is the chance of a security vulnerability. Just sayin’.

    Yes, he said move it to the images folder within your theme. Can you do that via ftp?

    Note: don’t change anything in the code like “url” or “name”. Whatever is in the code from voodoo, just paste it as is!

    backticks! and you don’t need the <h1> tags anymore – that was a different method that I mentioned.

    See voodoo’s post below

    Like I said, if you enable your site to be crawled by search engines, all comments by default will be nofollow. That’s how wordpress works. IT’s because lots of spammers try to put links in comments.

    I always make footers nofollow because I’m envious of all the theme developers who have tons of links. I’m probably wrong to do this because they deserve some credit in the form of better rankings and higher PR but oh well. Their link is still there.

    Do you want to make your footers and blogrolls nofollow? What links are you looking to make dofollow?

    A link to your site would be helpful as well.

    In addition, if you are mentioning a website in a post, a simple way to make a link not followable would be to not make it a hyperlink.

    If you are looking to have google not follow your own pages, I ask why? Google loves big sites – the bigger your site is, and the more links you have pointing to you, the more authority and strength your site has.

    The method is laborious, yes. However, with WordPress, when you make your blog invisible to search engines – no robot will ever index your site. The links in your site can have any tag on them, but it won’t matter because no site will ever see them.

    Let me explain how privacy settings work in WordPress.

    When you select “I would like my blog to be visible to everyone, including search engines (like Google, Bing, Technorati) and archivers”, your robots.txt looks like this:

    User-agent: *
    Disallow:

    The entire site is available to be crawled and indexed by search engines.

    When you select “I would like to block search engines, but allow normal visitors”, your robots.txt looks like this:

    User-agent: *
    Disallow: /

    No search engine will crawl or index your site.

    The files aren’t available for me. You see them on your computer because they are cached. If you clear your browser settings/cache/cookies they’ll be unavailable to you.

    Did you ask godaddy about this? Maybe they can help. If not, you will probably have to re-add them all manually.

    Sorry to hear your site crashed! IT is always good to make sure your web host makes daily backups of your site in case anything goes wrong.

    I use cforms II with a site I made for a client. It can be really tricky and I had to do a lot of troubleshooting to get it working right. You also cannot update it via the wordpress plugin pane (at least you couldn’t as of a few months ago) which is a hassle. To update/upgrade, you must download from the site and upload the files.

    There’s a forum on that website and an an install guide. I’d suggest checking it out- it worked great for me.

    I think that code is for the div to either float left or right. You cannot float a div center. Additionally, div “align:center” won’t work either.

    To center a div you would can change positioning via the margins, or other methods.

    Can you post a link to your site and explain what you are looking to customize?

    RVoodoo, we should make a WP consulting company and offer support. Do you think theres a market for that?

    Now take out the background-image from your header div and you’ll be OK.

    We each had a different approach – they both work so you can do either one.

    If a SITE and PAGE is no-follow then no search engines will see/index the site. This is different from putting nofollow in links (the “a” tag). One is done via the robots.txt and the other is in the html coding. I am not clear on what you mean.

    Matt Cutts, who works for Google, says that pagerank sculpting is essentially a waste of time: https://www.mattcutts.com/blog/pagerank-sculpting/

    It can be tricky to widen/narrow a theme, but it’s very very possible. If she did not know what she was doing then problems would have arisen. I apologize for being blunt but I am not sure of her competency with wordpress – it’s fairly easy to customize a theme if you know what you are doing. It takes concentration, patience, and and understanding of how wordpress/html/css/php works. Even just the basics.
