Page switches or automatic scrolling

  Page switches or automatic scrolling Page switches or automatic scrolling, let's figure it out. Pagination, page-by-page output of information is called pagination. Page numbers in the output of the news feed or products can be seen on any site or online store at the bottom. Infinite scrolling, it loads when scrolling the page, that is, the lower posts appear automatically, often with beautiful transition effects. Well, and something in between, a button to load more, show more and the like. Many have seen all of this. Each of these methods has its pros and cons. Personal opinion on this matter, the news resource has better switches, since automatic scrolling has a number of disadvantages. The load more button is more relevant for goods. Moreover, the last two methods do not always work correctly. Devices with limited resources may start to slow down due to the huge amount of loaded information. Website developers should weigh the pros and cons of infinite scrolling and paginatio...

Why ratings are not shown in Google, rating in the form of stars

  Why ratings are not shown in Google, rating in the form of stars Why ratings are not shown in Google, rating in the form of stars. Where does it appear, of course in search queries you can see news or a page with a rating from one to five, and next to it below the average rating which in turn can show the accuracy of the number with a dot, for example 4.9. The same thing happens with the company on the map, Google My Business builds ratings on the same principle. What factors influence the issuance of ratings in search results. First and foremost, the quality of the micro markup created on the site. And the most important thing is that on young resources it is rarely shown immediately. In my experience, about a year later. And do not abuse spam in micro markup, purchased links, all this only makes the site worse. By the way, not all site management systems can implement micro markup, since you need to get into the source code, or install a plugin like WordPress. If you have a poi...

Own domain or free for website, comparisons

  Own domain or free for website, comparisons It is no secret that some website creation services offer a domain name for free, it is clear that the main condition is to be their client. Although in some countries there is an opportunity to check with the registrar and take a short name . So it is better, your own domain or a free one. It depends on what for, if you are making a website for your company, the domain name is definitely personal. If you want to try a rare product or service, you can also use the free option , there is nothing wrong with that. Moreover, you can buy a website name at any time, and as they say in the correct language, park it. Of the minuses of a free domain, the main one is indexing by Google. But it also depends on how much is hanging on such sites. Well, and the amount of information on the resources, from my own experience I see how my bulletin boards , and they are more than 10 years old, in view of the free domains, ha...

Why Google indexes websites sometimes worse than Bing and others

  Why Google indexes websites sometimes worse than Bing and others Why does Google index sites sometimes worse? I often encounter this question, and recently I decided to compare the results for some queries of my and other resources. I once wrote about Bing , I have a webmaster account in it. I import all the information there from something like Google, and here's what I noticed. In Google Search Console, I couldn't see any maps of several sites, but Bing took everything without any problems and its index has an order of magnitude more pages. But I went further and decided to check in Yahoo, the result there is also quite good. Google has the highest share of the search segment in Ukraine. If we talk about something Ukrainian, it is still based on the American giant. By the way, in the US itself, many users switch from Gmail to the Yahoo analogue, due to annoying advertising. The Google Local Experts Forum, which I have been visiting for a long time, often gives only in...

Do you need a survey on the site or not?

  Do you need a survey on the site or not? Do you need a survey on the site or not? Many old and new clients who have their own resources on the Internet ask me. To be honest, many are just a little tired of it, given that there are more than enough surveys with tests on social networks and other networks. And now they even pay small money or give some bonuses for completing multi-page questionnaires. How to make a survey if there is no module or plugin in the site management system. Many have been using Google forms for a long time, it is free, fast and reliable.  Surveymonkey is  a platform specializing in online surveys, I worked there for a while in the paid version, there are a lot of good things. I make a survey for each new customer on the site, the one they want with a choice of answer options. I have been doing something similar on my resource for many years. One question, and two answers are interesting to visitors on my site or not. Moreover, I see st...

WordPress Website, Good or Bad

  WordPress Website, Good or Bad I am periodically asked about websites on the  Wordpress system , let's start with the main thing for whom such a thing is suitable. Out of the box, WordPress is a system for news, articles, blogs and the like. In simple terms, for those who are engaged in the site. For example, a company with service pages, plus a blog for posts on their topic. Yes, WordPress has stores, one-page landings, and just resources with static pages. As for me, it is easier to use prepared, or rather tailored systems for this. Moreover, hosting for sites provides and describes what pre-installed CMS can be your choice. And for what purposes they are applicable. It is worth paying attention to plugins, add-ons for sites on similar systems, good ones are often for money. Normal masters creating resources should immediately say about something like this, that in addition to the domain and hosting, a paid template is also possible. Do I help clients w...

Should there be a date for news on the site or not?

  Should there be a date for news on the site or not? I hear this question from people who work with sites. Well, let's turn to Google in this case, what does it say. If our algorithms can determine the date of publication of your page or the video you uploaded and evaluate this information as useful, then it can appear in the search results. It seems that information about the time of the post is needed, on the other hand, the search engine does not rely on any individual factor when choosing a date, since each of them can be wrong. Now my own conclusions, I have experimented with similar things many times in different modules of my site, news, blog, forum, bulletin board. And I will say frankly that the date is absolutely necessary, moreover, if your site management system allows you to change the publication time, in this case it has a very good effect on search results. For example, you wrote an article a couple of years ago, and then decided to rewrite it, you don't like i...

How to make a site appear more in search results?

  How to make a site appear more in search results? Of course, you need to start with the site working correctly in the Google webmaster account,  search console new name, I like the old one more. The most important things for your resource are the correct robots.txt file and the sitemap, more often it is sitemap.xml or something similar.  Google periodically scans your site for updated information, but you can also manually ask to check any page. But there is a limit on the number, you will be told in your account that the quota has been exceeded. In addition to changing text information and images, when else is it useful to ask for a page check? For example, adding micro markup, changing headings, inserting links to other pages and resources. In addition to the above, it is useful to add these modified pages to social networks, write a note on Google Maps with a mandatory link. Well, and if there is a podcast, YouTube and do something similar there. ...
