Google AuthorRank is among the most trending SEO topics today, and is the subject of conversation on many blogs and forums. Chances are, in the near future, it could change search rankings as we know them. A while back, we discussed at length about what AuthorRank is, and how it's different from PageRank. Google obviously is trying to get more and more people to use Google+, so that authors can be socially recognized, and then associated with a website's content. But while Google is at it, AuthorRank won't start working out of the box. You will have to make adjustments to your site too, and incorporate Authorship. That said, let's take a look at some tools that will help you get started, and improve your AuthorRank for, and when, it really starts influencing search results.
1. Structured Data testing tool
OK, this is a nice starting point. Google provides you with a free Structured Data testing tool that you can use to check whether the Google Authorship markup is working correctly on your website or not. This is especially important for multi-author websites, as often times, Authorship doesn't show up for all the authors.
Just go to the Structured Data tool, and enter a URL. You can also paste an HTML code snippet. This tool will show you the result for that page as it would appear in Google Search. Not only that, it will show you a lot of other information that will help you identify any problems with your markup.
