Watch the tutorial video:How to Add Images"
Why is there a limit on the number of blocks on a page?,"On most pages, you can have a up to 21 blocks. See this limit as an invitation and an opportunity to organize your content more effectively for Google and for your readers. On each page, you should write on only one topic. Shorter, clearer pages invite your readers to continue exploring, either by clicking on a link on your page or on a menu tab. 
Keeping pages short is also a way to make your website load faster. This improves the browsing experience for your visitors and the visibility of your website on Google. Don’t forget that most people use their mobile phones when they browse the web. Studies show that visitors often quit a site after 3 or 4 screen lengths if there is no call to action (e.g. a link to go to another page).
The exception is the Blog page, on which you can have up to 99  blocks. You can add up to 10 posts per day, display the date above each post and, on Smart and Pro sites, include a comments box below each block.
Note that there is no limitation on the length of the text you can type in a block, whatever the page type."
What are Blocks in SimDif?,"SimDif utilizes ""Blocks"" as the fundamental building elements for creating web pages. As the name suggests, Blocks function as building blocks that can be easily assembled to construct a web page. They also allow you to change the appearance or style of the block without affecting the content within it. For example, you can create a block which has a small image on the left and text on the right, and change the block type to large image on the right and text on the left.
Blocks can be easily moved up and down on a page, and moved or copied to another page using ""Move"" mode.
There are several types of blocks available in SimDif, including standard, special, blog, and e-commerce: • Standard blocks are used for creating common page elements, such as images and text. • Special blocks are used for creating more complex elements, such as maps, videos and buttons.• Blog blocks are specifically designed for creating blog posts.• E-commerce blocks are used for enabling online store or ""Buy Now"" button solutions, which include features such as payment options.
SimDif's system of content blocks makes web page creation truly easy, allows you to create a website with clear structure, and helps you improve your visitors' experience."

What can I do if I have reached the limit of 99 Blog posts on a page?,"If you have written 99 blog posts on a page and are unable to post another one, but would like to continue blogging on your SimDif site, we recommend doing the following:

SEO #3 How do I write a good Title for my website?,"In the header of your website, tap on ""Title of this Website"" to open the text editor and set your website's title (which appears on all pages).

Of course, you can complement your title with a couple of keywords related to your activity. For example, the place you live in, or the kind of website you are making. 
Be careful: If you add too many keywords, readers won't be able to remember the title of your site, your website will lose its identity, and the header of your website will end up cluttered with words.

Why has my website disappeared?,"• An ""inactive website"" is a site that has not been published at least once in the last 3 months.
• Removing inactive sites is a way to conserve server storage space and to provide the best service possible to our active users. It also helps us keep the price of the Smart & Pro versions as affordable as possible. (As a result, SimDif is probably the most affordable website builder in the world)
• It is also a way to make sure that under ""•simdif•com"", Google will only find well structured and active sites. This good reputation benefits all websites made with SimDif.
It is a part of our Ethics: 
• We don't keep the data of people who no longer use SimDif, and we never resell the information of any SimDif user.
• It is also a security measure. By not maintaining email addresses and personal information on our servers, it becomes much less likely that hackers will take an interest.
Last but not least:
• The reminder to Publish often is a way to invite you to take a fresh look at your website. It gives you a chance to adopt your readers' point of view and improve your site.
• This creates a clear signal that your site is regularly updated, for your readers and clients, but also for Google and other search engines."
How do I see if my site is on Google?,"To verify that your site is being indexed by Google, type “site:” followed by your website address into the Google search box. For example, “site:mywebsite•com” or “site:mywebsite•simdif•com”. You should see your published pages in the results.
If you have only recently published your site for the first time, wait a couple of days and then try again.
Next, see if you can find your site by searching for something your potential visitors might type to find you. For example, “artisan pizza in Toronto”. 
If your site is not ranking as high up on Google as you would like, there are many steps you can take:
 • Make sure you have completed all the recommendations of the Optimization Assistant. • Type “SEO” into the search box above and look for the FAQs titled SEO #0 to SEO #12.  • Visit the links below for more in-depth guidance on the topic:

Mega button with image (for Smart & Pro sites)
Instead of previewing a page, this Mega button uses a custom image to advertise the content of the page you link it to.
• Choose a page to add the Mega button to. • Tap on the ""Add a New Block"" button.• Select ""Special"", ""Mega button with image"", and hit Apply.• Tap on the block, ""Choose an image"", then ""Link a page"".

Watch the tutorial video:How To Use Mega Buttons with Previews"
SEO #4 How do I add keywords to my website?,"Google first identifies keywords in your page titles and block titles, and then in the text of your website. 
It is important to understand that google does not only check for keywords that can be placed in the metadata of your pages.
Choosing the right words and expressions in all your titles and text helps Google to reference what your website is about and at the same time improves the way your readers browse and understand the content of your pages.

Why is SimDif slow on my phone?,"Editing a fully featured website remotely takes more resources than other tasks you can do with an app. However, our high performance servers allow SimDif to run as fast as your device and internet connection permit.
 • If the app is loading slowly for you, connect to the best available wifi connection.
 • If you have confirmed that your internet connection is fast and the app is still slow, check your phone storage and cache. 
You might also check that your phone is not either too hot or too cold."
Why can’t I log in to my SimDif site?,"There are a few reasons why you might not be able to log in :
• Make sure that you are using the correct email address, the one you created your account with.
• Re-check your password. If you have forgotten your password you can reset it by clicking the link on the login screen.
• After 6 months your Free Starter site will be automatically unpublished. If you don’t publish it again within a further 3 months, your site will be automatically erased by our system.

How can I make a Logo for my business?,"SimDif does not offer to design your logo for you, but we can happily share our experience and advice on the qualities a good logo needs.
● Make a color version and a black and white version of your logo, and start with the black and white version.
● Unless you always want your logo to be text based, make a version with the name of your company in it, and a version without. See if you can still create a feeling of brand identity even without the name.
● Try to make your logo recognizable even when really small.
● Try to design a logo that is visually balanced and easy to read in a square. Your logo will then be more adaptable to different media, including your website and social networks, and to business cards, posters and fliers.
● SimDif websites accept logos based on a square frame. You can upload a png with a transparent background if you wish."
How can I make a Logo for free?,"There are many apps and websites with which you can make a logo. We looked at several and picked out a few which we think can help you get a good result easily, and for free.

This formatting tool will make sure that your text will flow within your block, whatever the size of the screen used by your reader."
SEO #6 How do I create meta tags for SEO in SimDif?,"Meta tags help search engines understand your website's content and display it correctly in search results. Three important meta tags you should always set up are: Title for Search Engines, Meta Description, and (if you have a custom domain name) Site Name.
Title for Search EnginesThe Title for Search Engines is the title of each individual page of your website in search engine results. Make sure it clearly describes what your page is about, keeping it short and interesting to attract potential visitors.
• To set a Title for Search Engines, on each page of your site tap on the 'G' icon and complete the field.
Meta DescriptionThe Meta Description should be a brief and inviting summary of the content of a page. It is often displayed in search engine results below the Title for Search Engines.
• To add a Meta Description, on each page of your site tap on the 'G' icon and complete the field.
Site NameSite Name is a recently added element in Google Search results which is the same for every page of a website, and should be your brand, organization name, or website name. 
For now, the only way to control the display of a Site Name is to have a custom domain name such as ""mywebsite.com"".
• When you have a custom domain name, set up your Site Name by opening your homepage in the SimDif app, tapping on the 'G' icon, and completing the Site Name field.
Watch the tutorial video:How to Add Metadata"
How do I add a map to my website?,"Tap ‘Add a New Block’ on any page, select ‘Special’, and choose the ‘Map' block.

How do I edit the Menu Button?,"SimDif has a Menu with tabs which is always visible on the left on computer screens. On phone screens there is a three-line button ( ☰ ) which you tap to open the menu. 
By default the label of the button is “Menu”, but you can change it as follows:
• Open Site Settings, top right• Go to “Tools & Plugins” or “All Settings”• Choose “Edit the Menu Button”• Type your new label into the empty field, hit “Apply”, and Publish.
Your Menu Button will now be updated on your published site."
How do I edit the Title Tag of my website?,"Each page of your site has some code which tells search engines like Google what to display as the Title of your page in search results. 
When you give your page a Title, SimDif automatically sets your Title Tag to the same. So, in most cases the Title in Google will be the same as the Title of your actual page. However, you can change it to something else.
To edit the Title Tag, hit the ‘G’ icon (top-left of the page in the app, top-right on a computer browser) and edit the field “Title for Search Engines”. Then ‘Apply’ and ‘Publish’. You may need to wait a few days before Google’s ‘robots’ notice the change."
How can I make money from my SimDif website?,"SimDif is dedicated to the organization of your content for your clients and search engines.
SimDif is really good at creating presentation websites for your professional activity or hobby.
Let us know what is your area, we might be able to show you some examples of similar businesses that also use SimDif.

Why can’t I delete the contact page of my SimDif website?,"The contact page cannot be erased, here's why:
 • When visitors view your site on a desktop browser, there is an important button ""contact us"" that appears in the top bar as they scroll down. This is linked to the contact page.
• It is not safe to display your email address on your website. This will dramatically increase the amount of spam sent to your email. Hiding your email address is one of the functions of a contact page/form.
• A contact page with a form also allows people to write to you, even if their email software is not on the device they use to check your site.
• The contact page allows you to put a postal address, a Google map location, your phone number, buttons to reach you through WhatsApp or Messenger (or other communication apps). 
• You can rename your ""contact"" to ""get in touch"", or anything you like.
• The best place to have your contact page (in your tabs) is last. This is where most people will look for it first. 
If you want to put a link in your footer it is best to make it your contact page."
How do I move a block or page tab up or down in SimDif?,"If you want to change the order of blocks or pages, tap on the Hand icon in the top toolbar.(If you are working on a mobile phone and want to change the order of the pages, please tap on the Menu button at the top right)When you are done changing the order of things, tap on the pencil in the top toolbar to go back to Build mode."

To space out your tabs you can add a spacer by selecting “Add a Spacer” from the bottom of the tabs menu.
Select the Pencil icon to go back to Edit mode."
SEO #5 How do I choose a good domain name?,"It is important to keep your domain name short and descriptive.
A good domain name should be easy to memorize and difficult to spell incorrectly.
If you want to use your brand name as your domain, make sure to place keywords that clearly describe your business and location in the title of your home page.
Another option is to use keywords in your domain. For example simple-website-builder.com or vegan-pizza-oakland.com
Think about the words and phrases people will use to look for your website on Google."
How do I name or rename a menu tab?,"Go to the page of the tab you want to edit.
Click on the tab to open the text editor.
If you are using a phone: 
1. Tap Menu and go to the page of the tab you want to edit.
2. Tap Menu again to bring the tabs into view and tap the tab of the page you are on to open the text editor.
Tips:
• You want your readers to have a clear idea of the page content when they read the tab name.
• If some of the content of your page is not represented by the name of the tab it won't be easy for your readers to find it."
What is the address of my site on the web?,"If you haven’t already given your site an address, when you Publish for the first time, the app will prompt you to name your site.
 • You can do this before publishing by going to ‘Site Settings’, top right, then ‘Site Address - Domain Name’. Choose either a ....simdif.com domain, or your own domain name, even on a free site. • As soon as you publish your site, it will have this address. • Every time you publish your site, the app will give you a link to visit your site in a browser. • There is also a direct link to your published site at the top left, just under the toolbar."
Can I add HTML or scripts to my SimDif website?,"Right now it is not possible to insert your own HTML code or script in a SimDif site. But in many cases, we can still help you.  Please let us know what is the service you want to integrate into your site."
What is the difference between a SimDif website and social media?,"SimDif is good for creating websites to present your business or hobby to your clients, readers, and search engines. SimDif is not a social network like Facebook or Twitter, and it does not offer your readers the chance to log in and post something. 
You should use a website as the hub for your presence on the web and as a place to display things from your perspective. 
Use your Facebook page to get feedback and posts from your friends and clients."
Why am I not receiving emails?,"If you are having issues receiving your verification email or password reset email, please check your junk/spam folder. 
This often happens with Hotmail, Outlook, and Live. 
If you cannot see your junk/spam folder on the app you use for email, you will need to log into your email from a browser to locate it.
If the emails are not in your spam folder, you may want to check with the administrator of your email account, and get them to allow all emails coming from “@simple-different.com”.
If the problem is with an email coming from your contact page, and the emails are not in your spam folder, you may want to check with the administrator of your email account and get them to allow all emails coming from “@simdif.com”."
Why do I need to fill up meta tags for Facebook and Twitter?,"You may not use Facebook or Twitter yourself, but many people do, and what they share is up to them. Open Graph metadata is also used by other social networks, such as LinkedIn. 
Whilst you cannot control what people share, if you have a SimDif Smart or Pro site, you can control how your site is seen when people do share it.
How to set Facebook and Twitter metadata

Do I need to Upgrade to use my own Domain Name?,"SimDif Smart & Pro plans do not include a custom domain name. Instead:
Use a Custom Domain with any SimDif site: Starter (Free), Smart or Pro
Other website builders don't let you do this!
To buy a domain for your site, go to SimDif Site Settings > ""Website Identity"" > ""Site Address - Domain Name"", and tap the ""Purchase your own domain name with YorName"" button.

How many products can I sell on my SimDif site with a Buttons solution?,"If you plan to sell a lot of products – more than 15 or so – we recommend using an Online Store solution. An Ecwid or Sellfy online store will allow you to add a whole catalog of products to a page of your site very quickly.
In the spirit of curiosity, a Buttons solution has the following limits:
1. A SimDif Pro site can have up to 30 pages.2. Keep 3 pages for other purposes: your homepage*, a contact page, and a Terms of Service page, for example.3. 27 pages x 21 blocks x 3 items = 1701 products.
*We advise using your homepage to guide your clients towards your product pages with text links, and Mega buttons with previews.
It is also a good idea to use the block at the top of each page to describe what is below. This is helpful for your readers and for Google.
Keep in mind that with PayPal, Sellfy or Gumroad buttons, you need to manage your stock manually."
Can I add PayPal Smart Buttons on my SimDif site?,"Currently, SimDif does not support PayPal Smart Buttons.

POP #10 Should I do all POP's Recommendations at once?,"The answer depends on how old your page is, and on how high your page currently appears in Google search results for your main keyword phrase. 
If your page already appears quite high in Google for your keyword phrase, it's best to make only a few tweaks at a time. This way, if a change negatively affects your position, you will know what to put back.
If your page is new, a good strategy is to first do enough to appear in the top 100 Google results. Getting a score of around 75% will usually be enough. Once in the top 100, make a few changes at a time so that you move up gradually. Once you get more comfortable with SEO and using POP’s recommendations, you will better understand how ambitious or patient you need to be in your SEO work."
POP #15 Why did my page go down in Google search results?,"If you follow POP's recommendations your page is unlikely to move down in Google search results, but it can happen. 
Drops sometimes occur when something has been removed from a page. If your page has moved down, check that you didn't accidentally remove anything (anything at all) from your page.
What to do if your page has dropped
• First, give your changes enough time to work. If, after waiting for at least 10 days, your position is still lower, put any removed content back.To be able to undo changes, it's essential to keep a record, for example by saving your page content in a note on your phone.
• If you only added content to your page, and didn't remove anything, and your position in Google has remained lower for 20 days, undo your last changes.If you undo changes which had a negative impact on your position in Google, you will usually get your ranking back."
POP #9 How soon will my page move up in Google after using POP?,"While ""On Page SEO"" usually produces the fastest results, it can still take a little while. Typically, if changes will have an effect, the results will be seen from 10 to 21 days after making them. If your page is new or just published for the first time, it can take longer.
Several small moves in the right direction are better than one big jump."
POP #14 How do I make the best use of POP?,"• Do not blindly follow recommendations. If something seems wrong, decide what advice to follow based on your knowledge of what you offer.
• If you already appear high in Google search results, be careful and change just a couple of things at a time.
• If you have an established page, we do not recommend changing your page name/address to include your main keyword phrase. If you change a page name, you can lose your position on Google. Only change URLs on very new pages.
• Even if you see movement in Google just a few days after making changes, you would still be wise to wait 10-21 days before making any further changes. This way you can more confidently assess any positive or negative movements.
• It is not always a good idea to follow your competitors exactly, because they may have done some things incorrectly, and there may be important differences between what their page is offering, and what your page is offering.

POP #11 Can I have more than one Main Keyword Phrase for a page?,"The most effective approach to SEO is to target only one keyword phrase for each page. For example, if you have a page about tacos, don't talk about burritos on that page as well. Burritos should have its own page.
""One page per topic is almost always the best strategy.""
A well optimized page will rank for many related keywords
When you follow POP's advice to optimize your page for your main keyword phrase, you will often find that your page ranks well on Google for many related keywords. If your main keyword is ""tacos recipes"", for example, your page could easily rank for ""homemade tacos recipes"" and ""easy tacos recipes"". Well optimized pages can rank for many keywords."
POP #3 How do I choose a Main Keyword phrase?,"First, remember that you need to choose a different keyword phrase for every page of your site.
What is a ""Keyword Phrase""?
""Keyword phrase"" means the full question, or just part of it, that someone types into Google.
Examples:
• cheesecake recipes• vegan blueberry cheesecake recipes• buy blue suede shoes• how to clean blue suede shoes• best noodles in tokyo• best noodles tokyo
Key Points:
- Being specific: ""vegan raspberry cheesecake recipes"" is more specific, and will be easier to rank for, than ""cheesecake recipes"".
- Why are they searching?: Someone looking up ""buy blue suede shoes"" wants to purchase them. Someone looking up ""how to clean blue suede shoes"" wants to know how to take care of them.
- Tiny details matter: ""best noodles in tokyo"" and ""best noodles tokyo"" are not the same, and POP's advice will be different depending on your choice.
Choosing a Keyword: 4 Questions to Ask
1. Are Many People Searching For It?If no one is searching for the phrase on Google, using POP to optimize your page for it won't help.
2. Will It Help My Business?If people searching for it only want free information, will it help you if they visit your site?
3. Does It Match My Page?The keyword should fit what your page is about to be useful for your visitors.
4. Is It Too Competitive?POP has great advice, but some keywords are so popular that large companies spend a lot of money to get to the top of Google for them. Be realistic!
Local Tip:
If you have a local business, adding your city to the keyword phrase can help.
How Do I Answer These Questions?
Use these free tools to help you pick your keyword phrase:
? Google Keyword PlannerThe best free tool: It offers the most detailed information, and you get unlimited free use.  You will need to create a Google Ads account to use it.
? Answer The PublicA great visual tool to explore keywords. You can use it 3 times a day for free.

? Ahrefs Free Keyword GeneratorThe free version is limited, but you can discover new keywords quickly. Copy them to Google's Keyword Planner for more information."
POP #5 Why didn’t POP find any Variations for my keyword?,"Sometimes a keyword phrase does not have any variations. Variations are often the plural form of your keyword, a very close synonym, or a component part of your keyword phrase. Some languages don’t have plural forms, and variations will be less likely in those languages. And sometimes there are no synonyms for a keyword: for example when your keyword is an acronym, a technical phrase, or a product number."
POP #4 What is a Keyword Variation in POP?,"A variation is a term that is essential to support your main keyword. Variations will often be the plural form of your keyword, an extremely close synonym, or a part of your main keyword phrase.
Keyword Variations help you rank for your main keyword- POP does not aim to help you rank for variations.
We do NOT recommend removing variations except in the following cases:• Remove any words or symbols that are not part of the alphabet of your website’s language.• Remove competitor brand names."
POP #8 Does POP work in my language?,"Probably! POP currently works in at least 60 languages. 
SimDif only offers POP for sites which are in one of the supported languages. So, if you see POP available in the 'G' tab of any page, POP works for your language.
To ask about support for your language, please write to us from within the SimDif app Help center ( bottom left corner )."
"POP #2 What is PageOptimizer Pro and what is ""On Page SEO""?","What is POP?PageOptimizer Pro is a search engine optimization tool that helps website content writers optimize their pages for better appearance in Google search results.
POP aims to take the guesswork out of writing for the web by analyzing Google search results, and your website's competition, to provide you with easy to follow advice. POP can help you write new text and titles for your website, or help you optimize your existing content.
What is ""On Page SEO""On Page SEO is the process of optimizing web pages to be more relevant to what people using search engines are looking for, and more helpful to visitors when they arrive.
The key elements in On Page SEO include the search engine title, page and block titles, page name, ordinary text, links, and image descriptions.
POP's score for your website is an On Page optimization score, and the recommendations POP makes are only for elements which you can easily edit in SimDif.
Search engines like Google look at keywords and other on-page SEO elements to understand whether a page matches a user’s ""search intent"". If the page is seen as relevant and useful, Google includes it in search results.
The ""rules"" can change from time to time, but Google always prioritizes user experience, and recommends that website creators focus on ""people-first content."""
POP #7 What is a Good Score in POP?,"Most pages will start to move up in Google search results when they get a score of between 60-70%. Usually a good score will be in the 80%  range. It is possible to get above 90%, but a score that high isn’t always necessary to rank well.
Check your page's position in Google using Google Search Console
How well your page performs in Google is obviously more important that getting a specific score from POP, and Google Search Console makes it very easy to see how each of your pages ranks for its main keyword.
Watch the video:How to Verify Your Site with Google Search Console & Submit Your Sitemap"
POP #12 Do I need to know a lot about SEO before using POP?,"You don't need any special SEO knowledge in order to use POP and be successful. POP is already designed for people with limited SEO experience, and POP's integration with SimDif makes it even easier.

If your page is new or just published for the first time, it can take even longer."
POP #6 What are Supporting Terms in POP?,"Supporting Terms add context, and make it easier for both users and search engines to know what your page is about.
Supporting Terms help your page to appear in Google when people search for your main keyword.
Can I safely remove Supporting Terms which I think are wrong?
• Check POP's suggested Supporting Terms carefully. If a term is related to something your page is definitely not about, feel free to remove it. We especially recommend removing any competitor brand names.
• Sometimes, words or symbols from other languages can appear in the Supporting Terms, and you should remove these. You can also remove any partial or broken words.
• If there are supporting terms which you are unsure about, it is best to leave them.
Tip: Unexpected supporting terms can sometimes give you good ideas for how to improve the text of your page."
POP #13 How important is it to meet POP's Target Word Count?,"In general, the more competition there is on Google for your main keyword phrase, the higher POP's target word count will be.
POP counts all the text which is visible anywhere on your page, including:
• Ordinary paragraph text, bold and italic text, links and lists• Titles: including your Site Title, Page Title and Block Titles• FAQ blocks• Buttons and Mega Buttons• Image descriptions
Google takes all the important terms into consideration, wherever they are located on your page.
POP will not count text in some kinds of blocks, including:
• Ecwid and Sellfy E-commerce Store blocks• YouTube or other videos• Google Map blocks• Contact Forms
Should I Reduce my Word Count?
Even if your word count is currently over POP's initial target, it is almost never a good idea to reduce your word count. In the Word Count section in POP's score and advice screen you will still see the green circle even if your word count is more than POP's target."

What's the difference between Buying a Domain and Buying SimDif Pro?,"A domain name and a website are completely different kinds of resources. You may just need a website, or you may only need a domain name. Buying just what is needed helps keep the cost low for everyone. 
For this and other reasons, we decided not to include a domain name in the Pro version
You might think, if you need both a website and a domain name, that a package would be a better deal for you. However, in our review of website builders proposing this kind of offer, package prices are higher than the total cost of a Pro site and a .com domain name purchased with us.
Buy a Domain Name for your Free, Smart or Pro website
With SimDif:  • You can use a .simdif.com subdomain or buy your own domain name, even if your website is a free Starter site. • You will pay a very reasonable and consistent price for your domain name, and it will include a free SSL certificate for https to work on your website.   • You keep your independence: The domain name that you buy with us can be linked to any third-party website builder, if ever you decide to leave SimDif.
In short, with us, you pay the right price and, as the website and domain name are not permanently tied together, the setup is easy to adjust as your needs evolve.

How do I Provide a Site Name to Google Search?,"Google recently put a new element called ""Site Name"" at the top of each search result, next to your site's favicon. It is the same for all the pages of your website which appear in search results. 
What is Google's new ""Site Name""?
Currently, if your website address ends with "".simdif.com"", your Site Name will be ""SimDif"". For now, the only reliable way to control the display of a Site Name in Google search results is to have a custom domain name such as ""mywebsite.com"". Google has stated that it will more fully support domain names ending in "".simdif.com"" and similar in the future.

If your site already has a custom domain nameFollow these steps to ensure your Site Name displays correctly:
1. Open your homepage in the SimDif app, tap on the 'G' icon at the top, and fill in the new Site Name field.
2. Publish your site again so that SimDif can add the necessary code to your website for you.
Note: Google can take days or even weeks to update a Site Name in search results.

3 Ways to Connect your Website with Social Media,"Here are 3 things you can do to build relationships between your SimDif website and your social networks.
1 • Create links to your different social media pages in the text of your pages and footer.
A sentence with a link, placed on the right keywords, is often better than icons, especially for your readers and search engines.
For example, create links saying something like:Connect with me on LinkedInCheck out and Like our Facebook pageFollow me on Twitter
In the Text Editor, highlight each phrase separately and tap on the chain icon to open the Link Editor. Then add the corresponding link to your individual social media pages.
2 • Share your site’s address
Share your site's link anywhere widely: on other websites, in forums, in comments, on social media, the list goes on...
It is VERY important to remember to share your website URL on your own social media profiles, you will be surprised how many people forget to do this. Your social presence helps direct people to your site and your site is a way to control your presence online and explain to people what you do.
3 • Add social media buttons on the pages of your website
If you have a Smart or a Pro site, you will find ‘Social media button’ blocks available under ‘Special’ when you go to ‘Add a New Block’. In these buttons, you can set the addresses of your own social media pages (Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, VK). This is a good way to promote your social media and is a way for people to connect with you further."
How do I add videos to my SimDif website?,"To place your own video in your site:
• Post/upload your video on YouTube, DailyMotion or Vimeo. You can set your video as unlisted or public if you desire. 
Copy the share link
• In SimDif, 'Add a New Block', tap on the ""Special"" tab and select the Video block.
• Once the block has been created on your page, open it and paste the address of your video to link it on your page.
Watch the video tutorial:How To Add A Video"
How do I create a View Cart button in PayPal?,"The view cart button requires a different kind of code than an add to cart button.

You will notice below the button code there is a ""Create a View Cart button"" link. 
Click on the link to create the code you will paste in the View Cart button of your website.

SEO #11 How do I see how many visitors my SimDif site gets?,"If you want to see simplified statistics on your site's visitors, and the number of pages they visit, go to Site Settings (top right corner) and ""Number of Visitors"".
If you want more comprehensive statistics about the traffic your site generates, and the behavior of your readers, you can integrate Google Analytics with a Smart or Pro site.
Watch the tutorial video:How To See The Number Of Visitors to my Site"
Can I have a visitors counter on my SimDif website?,"You cannot put visitor counters on your SimDif site. Here’s why:
Counters showing how many visitors have been to a page are misleading. They don’t help you understand the behavior of your users. Neither do they help you decide what to present to your visitors.
For example, does a counter give any indication of how long it has been running? Does it say anything about whether visitors liked the page, or whether they arrived by mistake and immediately left?
SimDif offers you much better statistics in ‘Settings’ > ‘Number of Visitors’. You can see how many people have been to your site, how many pages they visited, and over what period.
For the most complete statistics, use the Google Analytics integration offered in SimDif Smart & Pro sites.
Google Analytics allows you to collect precise information on how many visits your website has had, where they came from, how many pages people have seen, which pages, and where your visitors are in the world."
How can I get a free SSL certificate for my website?,"To get an SSL certificate with your domain name you must transfer it to where you host it, in this case with us at YorName.com.
YorName offers domain names and domain name transfers at a very reasonable price. You get a free SSL certificate, and you can use your domain with any Starter (Free), Smart or Pro site.
Go to Site Settings, the yellow gear icon at the top right of the editor, and choose ""Site Address - Domain Name"" ... Then, ""Transfer an existing domain name to YorName.com"".
An alternative for Pro Site users who have an active email account
If you don’t want to transfer your domain name to YorName, for example because you have an existing email account with another host, please contact us, we’ll be happy to create an SSL certificate for you."
Why is my website not showing up on Google?,"Answering the questions below can help you understand how to get your website found by Google.
When did you first publish your site?Even if you have followed all the advice here and elsewhere, it can still take several days, or as long as 2 weeks, for your site to start appearing in Google searches.
Have you completed the Optimization Assistant?The Assistant analyzes your site before you publish. It can help you to include many of the important details that a website needs to be successful.
What are you typing into Google to find your website?Even the most well known websites can’t appear in search results for every phrase typed into Google. For example, a tapas bar in Barcelona will have a lot of competition. If you simply type ‘tapas Barcelona’ there will be hundreds of restaurants in the search results. You may have to specify the neighborhood, or even the street. You can also try typing something more specific, if it is relevant, for example ‘vegetarian tapas Barcelona’.
Have you put your keywords into your Titles?When you have defined the phrase you want to compete for, a phrase that is relevant to what you do, make sure that the words in this phrase are in your ‘Page Title’ and ‘Title for Search Engines’. The ‘Title for Search Engines’ is edited by clicking on the ‘G’ icon.
Have you written a good amount of text for your pages?At least 300 words per page?Or do your pages contain mainly photos and graphics?
Google will often ignore pages that have little or no text. The absolute minimum you should have on one page is 300 words. 
If your site is Smart or Pro, have you enabled the SimDif SEO Directory?Adding your site to the Directory will give it a quality backlink, which Google will appreciate. You can do this in 'Site Settings' (yellow button, top right). The FAQ, 'SEO #9', has detailed instructions, with a video, on how to do this.
Have you verified your site and submitted your sitemap in Google Search Console?The FAQ, 'SEO #10', has detailed instructions, with a video.
I have done all of the above and my website is still not on GoogleIf you have covered all the points above, and after 2 weeks your website is still not on Google, even when you type the exact same phrase that is in the ""Title for Search Engines"" of your homepage, please contact us in the app."
Why has my website with a YorName domain stopped working after 2 weeks?,"When you first purchase a domain name with YorName, your email needs to be verified byㅤ domainnameverification.netFor this purpose, they send an email in English just after a domain purchase. You must click on the link inside this email.
If you don't click on the link within 2 weeks, they may block your domain name.
Note: If your domain name has already been blocked, clicking on the link should unblock it within 2 hours."
How do I pay for multiple SimDif Smart or Pro sites?,"For technical reasons, it is not possible to have more than one auto-renewal subscription on the same account.
If you already have a monthly or yearly subscription, only manual 1-year payments are available for any additional sites you make from the same account.
To get the best price for manual 1-year payments, login your SimDif site on a web browser, from a phone or a computer: 
https://www.simple-different.com
There you can also take advantage of our special offer, 3 years for the price of 2.
