How to install the Premium SEO plugin on almost any site

How to install the Premium SEO plugin on almost any site

We have several installation methods outlined below to suit your specific implementation requirements
Our Premium SEO Plugin is designed to allow for remote collaborative live document style management of article page content so we do recommend installing it so your team can be empowered to view and even modify your own SEO work.

WordPress Sites – If your site is not built with WordPress, skip to Option B.
For most WordPress sites, you can simple install the WordPress version of our plugin and be done.

-Plugin Installation Instructions-

  1. Save the SEO Network plugin file somewhere on your computer
  2. Sign into WordPress
  3. Navigate to Plugins found in the left menu
  4. Click Add New Plugin
  5. Upload Plugin
  6. Browse and locate the zipped SEO Network file (wherever you saved it) and select it
  7. Install Now
  8. Be sure to click the Activate Plugin button.

*some WordPress sites can experience a visual theme conflict that requires more troubleshooting.
This is usually because the theme’s default page filename was changed from the standard filename used by WordPress.
There are 2 ways to work around a theme conflict with our plugin on WordPress Sites:
  1. You can create a new page theme specifically for our plugin generated pages.
  2. You can implement the PHP version of our plugin essentially deploying the same content publishing code while bypassing any template footer interaction.
Since WordPress uses PHP, our PHP plugin is a very easy workaround for visual footer element conflicts or to have more control over the
aesthetics of how the footer links is displayed. Request "the PHP version". *ASP version also available.

OPTION B
Sites with root access – If you don’t have root access to your website server, please skip Option C.
For sites built with another CMS or static HTML pages hand coded or compiled within a tool like Dreamweaver, you’ll generally need FTP or File Manager access to add any code. FTP is preferred.

Your team or our team can simply:
1. Upload our PHP or ASP file to the root directory (main folder) of your website and connect. 
            This is usually the public_html folder, accessible via FTP or File Manager.
2. Add the provided code to your site footer to tie all new pages in with pre-existing pages.
Here’s a few examples of the code you can use to implement the footer links:

PHP:         <?php require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/YOURFILENAMEHERE.php'); ?>
ASP:         <!-- #include virtual="YOURFILENAMEHERE.asp" -->
HTML:     <a href="/YOURFILENAMEHERE.php?Action=1&k=keyword-1">Articles</a>

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OPTION C
Site builder sites with admin access – If you don’t have a login to make any change to the website at all, please skip to the next method.
Many sites today are built with proprietary platforms that do not allow for the installation of any code. This does remove our ability to add outbound links to these websites, but not to worry, these sites can still benefit from the SEO network linking and content.

To best mimic the value our plugin creates, please use the Keyword Content pane within the SEO Network Dashboard to fulfill the following steps:
  1. Create a new page for each keyword copy/pasting the corresponding written content into the body of the page.
  2. Create a new Articles page that links to each individual keyword article page.
  3. Link to the Articles page from your existing site footer.
Here are a couple example of a site that has the content implemented this way:

BigCommerce
Duda & DudaOne
GoDaddy Website Builder
GoogleSites
Network Solutions - nsWebsites
Shopify
SnapPages
Squarespace
VistaPrint
Volusion
WebEden
webflow
WebsiteBuilder
Weebly
Wix
…etc.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OPTION D
Sites with hosting account access – subdomain implementation
Article pages can be implemented on a subdomain leaving the existing site completely untouched but this does require that the subdomain first be created within the web hosting account and then pointed at our content server. My team will help generating and pointing the subdomain insite the hosing account or you can request instructions and we will walk you through the process.
