  Howdy Gary,

  Thanks for the report, I was able to reproduce this issue on my iPhone as well.

  I checked with the developers and this is a known bug. They’ve been working on it, but it’s a tricky one to squash, apparently. We’ll let you know when we know more.

  Thanks for your patience!

  Cheers,
  Caroline

  Hi Caroline, thanks for getting back, it’s good to know what the problem is as I can now move on with designing around this issue. I was pulling my hair out looking for a wonder solution on the web! Thanks a million for your help, and good luck to the developers, I look forward to that solution. By the way I am really happy with the software in general, it’s fantastic.
  Cheers!
  Gary

  Hi there, I am working on my sites SEO at the moment and I am a little confused as to the best way to add tags etc. My site is mainly going to be a static page website at first, so I am only using pages at the moment i.e no posts or categories. Most of the help topics seem to talk about blogs as opposed to more static websites so I am a little unsure as to how to proceed with making my site Google friendly and visible? Any suggestions would be great,
  Thanks a million,
  Gary

  Hi Gary,

  We’ve now fixed the Carousel issue you reported last year.

  I am a little unsure as to how to proceed with making my site Google friendly and visible?

  WordPress.com automatically notifies search engines like Google when you update or publish a new page, so as long as your site is public Google will see it.

  You can also enable Google Webmaster Tools to monitor how your site performs with Google:
