All you need to know about CDN ....

If you have read any article recently about how to optimize your web-site’s speed, you have heard of CDN – and wondered what the hype was all about. I thought I would like to dig a little deeper and show what it is & how it can help your site – in some more detail.So, What are CDNs?The popular term CDN is short for content delivery network.It is a smart inter-connected system of computers available on the Internet that help provide Web content rapidly to huge number of users by simply duplicating the content on multiple servers. These serves then direct the content to users based on proximity.How do CDNs Work? Let‘s talk about how data flows to your on-site visitors when someone visits your WordPress site. The visitor automatically gets sent to your web hosting provider (say in GoDaddy). Your Hosting guys are probably located in some remote location! Ideally every visitor on your website is accessing this one server to view your website.What if your hosting server experience a traffic surge? It would consume your resources, slow you loading speed and might even lead to a Server Crash! This is where a CDN comes in play. Lets Find out how…Why you definitely need CDN on your Hosting servers ..?(1) Cost-Effective Solutions :Say you Sell Digital content online eBooks, online courses etc,and you get a high surge of traffic usually trying to download a large number of content of your site. You have to ensure you site is up and running no matter how many products they download any given point.(2) Crash Resistance :With a CDN and proper caching set-up the site load gets distributed to multiple servers instead of having 100% traffic on your site.(3) Much Better UX :Better connectivity increases the number of page-views and number of visitors that prefer you site to your competitor‘s. (Pssst: This means reduced Bounce Rates and better conversions!)(4) Max your SEO-Juice!We all know the big-daddy Google has made it absolutely clear that faster site will ensure a better search results ….obviously better Ranking for your site.My Recommendations for an efficient CDN for you website..WordPress definitely has a plethora of CDN plugins that can help you better optimize your Site Speed.Although I would recommend using Clouflare CDN for your wordpress sites. It best to try their FREE Cloudflare analysis for your own site and see how you perform. Why don’t you try setting-up a Cloudflare account for your website?CDN are used for best B2B interactions and in serving content to consumers.Evidently more day-to-day life aspects are moving online.

5 SEO Tools That You Can't Do Without

A friend of mine recently complained to me that he had no idea why her website sales kept swinging wildly – there were sudden spurts in sales and equally low dips too, quite often. But the reason he had no clue why this kept recurring was because he didn’t have a handle on analytics – he wasn’t tracking his website traffic sources, he wasnt checking how conversions occurred , the usual visitor workflow on his site, which pages visitors’ were exiting from etc. Without a good analytics tool on your site to guide you, you are blind as a bat.

I love the 90-10 rule that @Avinash explains so beautifully – if you have a budget of $100 to spend on critical decisions about a website then you must spend $10 on tools for analysis and $90 on analysts. What he means is that more investment should be made on the people front in the form of training or monitoring or supporting greater involvement in decisions than the investment made in tools. Further Avinash says that multiplicity is a great practice. No single tool can be enough for gathering insights into every parameter of a website. Best to make use of a couple of tools to equip yourself with just the right set of data to analyse. I couln’t agree more.

Here are some of my personal favourites – you can pick and choose 1-2 tools based on your needs.

1. Google Analytics – FREE and PAID Plans

I am sure you already know about Google Analytics but I can’t imagine any Analytical tools list being complete without mentioning Google Analytics. The free version itself can fully take care of the analytical needs for small businesses.

Highlights:

Robust and exhaustive – custom reporting, clubbing of desired metrics over the desired period, options for generating reports and so much more

Can be used on multiple sites, provides a consolidated view , allows you complete control over how you want to organize your dashboard.

2. KISSmetrics – PAID Plans

If you visit its website it boldly announces “Google Analytics tells you what’s happening. KISSmetrics tells you who’s doing it.” That should give you an idea of the in-depth analysis offered by this tool. KISSmetrics tracks people,their sources and the ones that convert.

Highlights:

Has an interesting data funnel feature. This feature allows you to understand the sections of your website that aren’t doing very well.

Paid software- Offers a thirty day trial period Split testing – Tracks the activity of a customer after acquisition too

You may not like:

Feels short of tools like Google Analytics as it is centred around customers primarily, it does not offer very detailed data about the overall traffic sources.

3. Piwik – FREE

It is used by over half a million websites as of last count. Allows you to save data in several formats like CSV, TSV, XML, PHP etc. It’s free and open source. Piwik is a great web analytics tool for ecommerce sites and can track the earnings from visitors and measure overall performance. Its dashboard shows data sets like keywords, browsers, map views of the visitors, real time traffic to name some. The mobile view for this tool is great.

Highlights:

Can track multiple websites

Open Source – customizable Multiple website tracking is available

On premise data storage- data is not shared with any third party

4. Clicky Web Analytics – FREE And PAID Plans

Approximately 694,830 websites depend on it to monitor real time traffic. It provides details of the visitors who searched your website. The free registered account can only track up to 3,000 visitors per day while the range of charges for better upgrades is from $9.99 to $19.99 per month to $159.99 per year. Heat mapping and A/B split testing is an interesting option available.

Highlights:

Accurate realtime data Integration with WordPress with a simple plugin

Heat maps

You may not like:

User interface is not very appealing Many features are available only in paid versions Usage on multiple sites is only allowed under the paid version

5. Woopra – FREE and PAID Plans

Woopra as an analytic tool is designed around site visitors. It allows a user to see the number of people available on the site and track each visitor’s actions. Woopra’s core competency lies in visitor behavior analysis.

Highlights:

You may appreciate the dashboard if you are a seasoned webmaster

Shows how your website is being used/explored

Live chat – You can interact with your customers when they are present on your websites

You may not like:

The dashboard – A first time user may not find the dashboard very friendly.

Although each of these tools offer analytics in the broader sense, you will need to understand which type of tracking you will be able to best leverage for your business. Once this becomes clear, you can pick a couple of SEO Tools that will work best for you.

What are Breadcrumbs in WordPress and How Should They be Used?

Breadcrumbs is a term that talks about the nature of the concept in WordPress. These are basically the tools that allow users to navigate through your WordPress site in a comfortable manner. Breadcrumbs become the food for thought when considered for optimizing the website for search engines.

They allow search engines crawlers to easily move over the website. One can’t ignore the power of Breadcrumbs for SEO purposes.

The users are benefited in a way that, they can easily glide from one portion of the website to the other without being weighed down by the interconnections between pages.

Adding Breadcrumbs in WordPress can be an easy as well as difficult task, depending on the way to do it. It is better for the beginners to use the plugin method of installation in WordPress.

There are several Breadcrumbs plugins readily available for download, however the Yoast Breadcrumbs plugin is among the most popular ones. All you are required to do is to download the plugin and unzip the package.

You can easily upload the contents in the extracted folder to the plugins folder of the WordPress installation directory. Once this is done, you can go to the Dashboard and enable the plugin.

Once the plugin is enabled, you can make manipulations to the settings by going to Settings > Breadcrumbs.

Importance of Breadcrumbs in WordPress:

Breadcrumbs in Search Results

Google has dedicated people to work on breadcrumbs but that isn’t the only reason we know they’re important.

Breadcrumbs are important in Google because they actually show up in their search results. If you’re lucky, that is. Or maybe I should say: If you’re good.

Take a look at a screenshot where the results for wordpress.org show breadcrumbs instead of a single URL.

Just by implementing breadcrumbs on your site, Doesn’t necessarily guarantee that you can see them in your search results. Firstly you need to have a site that Google trusts and believes that it has something of an authority.

That said, it’s not hard to see that Google thinks they’re a good thing. And so implementing them might be a good idea if you’re looking for one more little push toward gaining more authority and upping your SEO score.

Ideal for User Experience

Breadcrumbs can help search engine spiders crawl your site and understand its architecture and also help with user experience. They can help users not only know where they are, but they can help them give easy access to other pages they might need.

Google also uses breadcrumbs in their own search results. They don’t do it to make it easier for search bots to crawl search pages. But they do it because they believe it improves user experience.

And, of course, Google even use them on their own info pages. Take a look at the screenshot below on a page for breadcrumbs.

How to Implement Breadcrumbs

There are two way, you can either go the plugin route or the more manual route.

Some SEO plugins may contain a breadcrumbs component. But there are stand-alone breadcrumb plugins too. The most popular is Breadcrumb NavXT.

With about 1.3 million downloads and 4 ½ stars on the WordPress.org directory, it has a very good track record.

It gives you lots of options in the settings (many more than you probably thought possible for breadcrumbs), and it’s easy to set up.

Inserting Breadcrumb Code

You will surely need to insert a bit of code into your theme where you want the breadcrumbs to appear. The only easiest way to do that is to insert the code into your header.php file near the bottom.

Breadcrumbs without a Plugin

There is an option available without plugins, for those who don’t like plugins and it is definitely possible to get breadcrumbs without a plugin. You may find a solution on Cazue.com.

However it is recommended that you should also check the backend of your theme for any breadcrumbs as they might be already built in. As sometimes they are.

Please let us know about you views and experiences regarding the same. We would be delighted to hear from you.

5 Steps to Improve Your Website Bounce Rate

It is a good sign if people visit your website, stay for long and turn into useful leads. Lower the bounce rate, better the site performance. Bounce rate is nothing but the number (percentage) of visitors who enter your website and leave without seeing any other pages.

There are two main reasons for a high bounce rate.

1. Traffic is being misdirected to your site or

2. Visitors are finding exactly what they were looking for on your website and leaving immediately

Many website owners give more emphasis on quantity rather than quality of clicks when they analyze their Google Analytics Dashboard. But, without a second thought, quality is much more important. Reducing the bounce rate of your website can bring about effective results and raise the user engagement rate bringing about better conversion.

Some quick and easy steps to improve your website bounce rate:

Better usability and design

If your site visitors don’t find what they want in the first few seconds of their visit, it is likely they will leave your website in a jiffy. There are great websites to compete with and in today’s digitally savvy world; no user will waste their time in poorly designed site. So, your website has to have smooth and convenient usability features and an appealing design to grab visitor attention and retain it.

Generate good content

By good content, it doesn’t mean you use terms which sounds fancy but rarely heard of before. Keep your target audience in mind and accordingly create content that interests and appeals them. No spelling mistakes, correct grammar, smart tone and precision are what make the content alluring and readable. Original content will set you apart from the competition in the market. Great text with eye catching graphics is the perfect amalgamation for an effective website. Long, raving and absence of attractive graphics and content results in higher bounce rate.

Aim for less loading time

Internet users have a short attention span and will leave a site place of it takes more than 10 seconds to load. For this avoid using heavy files, videos, graphics or images. Do not select a theme which takes hours to load. Lower bounce rate is directly proportional to better and faster site speed.

Note the variations between the bounce rates

Noting down the percentage of bounce rate at regular intervals help you learn about the various online campaign’s performances and its effect on the bounce rate. If your social media campaign has noted a bounce rate of 70% while your search and paid ads have witnessed around 90%, its clear that your social media activities are yielding better results than AdWords. You can then eliminate the ones not showing any results and focus more on the campaigns or projects that are generating fruitful results.

Use New Trending keywords

Online marketing is an ever changing platform with changing consumer needs and wants. New words and trends urge you to be well informed about the latest search terms. Using the same keywords which you used 2 years ago makes no sense at all. To learn what is the latest keyword trend, use Google AdWords keyword tool. This mechanism helps you get the knowledge of all current words being searched by users that relates to your business, uplifting your website quality.

A low bounce rate is not the only thing that determines your online marketing efforts. But it is one of the major factors that reflect how far or near you are to your online marketing goals. Experience and expertise teach you various methods and tips to overcome the bounce rate issues. Begin with these five basic ones and you will learn further.

Tips to manage WordPress comments and avoid SPAM

For all blog owners, the work does not get over by just posting your article. The blog has to be taken good care of by regularly cleaning and updating it. One of the biggest issues that you may face as your blog gains popularity in the industry is spam comments. There are comments full of pornography, viruses and a chunk of harmful stuff. Besides, there will be many fake sites which look like they are providing back links to your site. Read about some of the tips, methods, anti-spam plugins and tricks to prevent your blog from becoming victim of these spam traps also saving your precious time and efforts.

Avoid using DoFollow links

Having Do-Follow links encourages spammers to leave such comments on your site. You can prevent all the link juice gain they want from your site by basically no-following all comment links. So, by default WordPress adds an external no-follow attribute to all blog links. Always remember, it’s all about the quality and not quantity. Get away with the Do-Follow link and if you do not have a plugin of that kind, then this step is not meant for you.

Add Captcha Verification

This method helps prevent robots and spammers from filling your blog with cluster of unwanted comments. The user has to identify a code displayed there and type it out in the text box available there before submitting their comment. This helps maintain safety and keeps away spam comments. There are chances that this may annoy your genuine commentators because, every time they wish to comment, they have to fill this Captcha. But the benefit of using this feature overlaps the latter reducing your spam comments

Get Akismet

It is one of the most useful and valuable plugin for your WordPress blog. It is installed in the WordPress site by default. But it works once you activate it and get an API key. Without an anti-spam plugin, it becomes extremely difficult to deal with those deadly creatures. Akismet marks suspicious comments as spam and pushes them away in the spam folder. There are chances of genuine comments also being considered as spam and moved into the spam folder. But, that won’t be much of an issue. You can just keep an eye on your spam folder at frequent intervals and recover the real ones.

Know who you are approving

Even if you have activated Akismet, be very careful of who and what you approve. Because, if you chose moderate once option, you have invited the spammer to fill your blog with spam. Do not blindly accept comments, assuming that since it has passed through Akismet, it may be a genuine one. Keep an eye on all the comments that come in.

Disable trackbacks completely

Out of the spam comments, a large portion of it is occupied by trackbacks. Simple trackback validation plugin for WordPress performs effective tests on all incoming trackbacks to stop that category of spam. For some of the blogs, it is not even necessary to have trackbacks, allowing you to disable the trackback system on the entire blog or an individual post. Do this and avoid some harmful spam.

De-activate comments on older posts

It is advisable to close comments on older posts. This helps to protect your blog from getting spam. You can do it very easily. Just select the number of days, articles before which will not be receiving any comments.

Blacklist the spammer

You can blacklist the spammers and prevent them from participating in your blog by using their name, email id, URL or even their IP address. You have to do nothing, but just type any data about the spammer, either name or email id in the blacklist box. You shall never see that comment in the moderation again.

Don’t be afraid to mark a comment as spam if you have a doubt about it. You risk blocking a true commentator but it’s better to be safe than sorry. Keep your WordPress site updated and clean. Do not flood it with unnecessary data to avoid spam. The brief it is, the better and interesting it will be.
