1. Mark up your content with microformats2

Almost there!

An h-card was found on your site! Consider marking it up as the representative h-card.

To identify the h-card that represents the page, you can:

  • Add class="u-url u-uid" on the h-card’s link to https://jamesg.blog/
  • Or: add class="u-url" rel="me" on the h-card’s link to https://jamesg.blog/

Here is the first h-card found:
