Improve Search Engines Crawl On Your Managed WordPress Website

Leave a comment

Crawling is a process used by search engines to find content and present it to the people searching for it on the internet. In this process, search engines like Google send robots known as crawlers and spiders to find content on blogs and websites.

They not only take new content but also look up the updates made to content on websites. This content could be a blog post, image, video, or file such as PDF but anyhow of the format, the content is generally discovered by links.

Generally, websites contain a lot of information in headers which is not useful for many of us and instead makes the website insecure. For example, WordPress headers contain information about plugins and themes used on the website. This lesson will guide you on how you can remove such things on your website to better the crawl rate, make your website load faster and be more secure.

How To Remove Unnecessary Information From Your Header?

To make your website load faster, have a better crawl rate, and perform more securely on the internet you will need to remove unnecessary information from the header. This can be easily done by a plugin you can install on your website.

Simply navigate to Plugins -> Add New page on the admin area dashboard of your WordPress site and search the term ‘Crawl Optimization’.

Install and activate this plugin and it will deactivate elements such as short links, REST API links, RSD/WLW links, oEmbed links, generator tags, and X-Pingback headers to streamline website navigation and reduce the amount of data transferred.

Have A Faster, Secure & Easy Crawlable Website

As a result, your website will become faster as unnecessary data transfer and streamlining navigation are now minimized. SEO is enhanced as your website is not easily navigable by search engines. The crawl rate improves as the plugin removes all unnecessary links and information from the HTTP headers of your website.

Leave a comment

The event managers plan, publicize, and arrange the occasion of an event from a wedding to businesses, and virtual conferences. They must have a website to showcase their past work to their prospective clients, bring new clients from an internet search, and provide an option to contact or book an appointment.

With Managed WordPress, any event manager can create his own website simply by registering his domain name and subscribing to a Managed WordPress plan.

How To Make An Awesome Event Management Website?

Simply register your domain name and then subscribe to a Managed WordPress plan. Next, visit the ‘My Products’ page on your Sangkrit.net account and select ‘Setup’ next to WordPress in your ‘My Products’ list.

Now the automated process will ask you a few questions and you will be shifted to your WordPress admin area dashboard where you can start managing your website.

Install An Event Theme

Since you are starting an event management website then it would be better to install a theme designed especially for your business type as that will give a professional feel to your website.

You can install such themes from the Appearance -> Themes page by clicking the ‘Add New’ button. Simply search the term ‘Event Management’ in the themes search box and you will see that there are many themes you can choose from.

Create New Categories

The design of your website will only look better when you will have content. So create content by adding new blogs and pages with photos and galleries.

Create Necessary Pages

Similarly, you can create pages from Pages -> Add New page. Unlike posts that display new on top on the home page of your website, pages look stand-alone. Some common examples of pages include an about page and a contact page.

Display Menus

By displaying menus you can show your clients what content you have on your website and make browsing easier for them. You can create and manage menus from the Appearance -> Menus page to show categories and page links on the header of your website.

Install Plugins

You may also install some useful plugins to make your website more featureful and better. Visit Plugins -> Add New page and search for the feature you want to add to your website.

For example, to display social sharing buttons on your website simply search the term ‘Social Sharing’ and you will be presented with a number of social media sharing plugins you can select from.

Event Posting

A plugin called ‘Event Post‘ makes blogging more specific to event managers by adding more meta-data to posts to convert them into full calendar events. Each event can be exported into iCal, Outlook, or Google Calendar.

It also offers you an option to show Geolocation and automatically fetches the weather of the place where the event is going to happen.

It enables you to display:

  • Event Begin Date
  • Event End Date
  • Custom Color
  • Event Status
  • Event Attendance
  • Address of the place
  • Weather & Temperature
  • GPS coordinates of the place

To start your website you will need to register your domain name and then subscribe to a Managed WordPress plan. Once you do that, the automated process will guide you to the admin area of your website where you can create new pages and posts.

This lesson is about using WordPress to write long articles as blog posts. For very long articles such as essays and lessons with multiple headings, you need to add a table of contents at the top of the post to ease things for your readers.

Create A Category

The category feature on your WordPress site lets you create a hierarchical structure of categories that you can assign to your posts. Suppose you are willing to post lessons on a certain subject. Simply create a category in the name of the subject and then assign all lessons to that specific category. This is done while writing posts from the Posts -> Add New screen.

You can also add a link to the category on your website from the Appearance -> Menus page. The category link can be obtained from the Posts -> Categories page where you can also manage all other categories on your website.

Enable Table Of Contents

Next, each article will have its own headings so to make a table of content simply install a WordPress plugin called Automatic TOC – Table of Contents. Next, all you need to do is paste a shortcode [toc] in your post wherever you like the table of contents to appear and it will automatically create and display a TOC from all heading tags you have used in your post.

You can allow customers on your WordPress Ecommerce website to send queries or messages to you. These may include:

Reduce The Time CSS Takes To Load On Your WordPress Website

Leave a comment

In the case of CSS, there are two factors that affect the loading of CSS on your website. First is the size of the CSS file working on your web page and second is the number of CSS files actively working on your web page.

Hence, if your website is taking longer to open then CSS could be one reason. To resolve the issue you should choose your WordPress theme wisely. You may stick to the default WordPress theme or select one from the popular WordPress theme by clicking the ‘Most Popular’ filter on Themes -> Add New section because popular themes become popular when they perform better.

Now if you have a good WordPress theme and your website is working fine. Still, you can reduce its loading time by lazy loading necessary CSS files on your website.

How To Lazy Load CSS On Your Website?

Simply install-activate the new WordPress plugin called Lazy Load CSS. Upon activation, visit the plugin’s settings page on your dashboard and specify the CSS stylesheet files that you want to lazy load, and the plugin will do the rest.

What CSS Should Be Avoided?

Lazy-loading important CSS files of your theme or CSS files used on the viewport or above the fold may result in issues with the design of your website.

You should only lazy load the CSS that is below the first fold of your website. That means lazy load only those sections that appear when a user scrolls down on your website. In other words, lazy loads only the content that is not visible without scrolling otherwise the first view of your website could be blank for some seconds, and that is something nobody wants.

The plugin works well in reducing the time your website takes to load and improving FCP i.e. First Contentful Paint as well as LCP i.e. Largest Contentful Paint scores, and the overall performance of your website.

If you yet don’t have a website you can easily have one by registering your domain name and subscribing to a Managed WordPress plan with or without the eCommerce option and the system will guide you in bringing your website online in less than an hour.

Why WordPress Keeps Redirecting You To Old Web Address?

Leave a comment

This issue is experienced especially when you move your WordPress site from a subdirectory or subdomain to the main domain. Maybe you have developed your website on a subdomain or directory and now you want to move it to your main domain address.

Whatsoever may be the case, if you see that your domain is still trying to send you to that old address then make sure of the reasons mentioned below.

Have you checked the .htaccess file for any manual redirects?

The .htaccess file is present in the root directory of WordPress. On the server, it is hidden by default. There are some plugins especially cache and SEO plugins that make modifications to this file which may cause redirect issues at the time you migrate your website to a new address.

To make sure your .htaccess file is free from any manual redirects, visit the file manager of your web-hosting or server, navigate to the root directory of your website, and open the .htaccess file for editing.

Next, make sure you don’t have any manual redirect code, if you have then remove it. You may simply remove all additional rules and leave only WordPress default rules in this file.

Have you updated the new address of your website on the admin settings page?

Before moving your website you need to update the new address of your website on Dashboard -> Settings -> General page. You need to update both the ‘Home’ and ‘Site URL’ fields.

In case you don’t do that, your domain will keep redirecting to that old address. Somehow if you forgot to change the URL of your site and have already moved the files then now what you can do is update the wp-config.php file by adding this code –

define('WP_HOME','http://yoursite.com');
define('WP_SITEURL','http://yoursite.com');

Make sure you replace yoursite.com with your own domain name. It simply hardcodes the values on your website.

Another way of doing the same is by editing the wp-options table of your MySQL database.

May be old URL is hardcoded in any of your plugins

Another reason for this error is sometimes some plugin hardcodes the old address of your website and attempts to load it during the login process.

So once you are sure that the ‘Home URL’ and the ‘Site URL’ have been properly updated then the next thing you should do is visit your site’s root directory -> wp-content and rename the ‘Plugin’ folder. This will simply deactivate all plugins. Now try to open your website.

If this trick works then you can log in to your website and start re-activating plugins one by one. Following this way, you will reach the plugin that is causing the problem. To resolve the issue, simply delete the error-causing plugin.

Next, clear your browser’s cache and see whether the error is gone or not. If the problem persists then use the following comment form to get in touch or you may contact 24/7 phone-call support if you are a user of SANGKRIT.net.
