We know that SEO can be overwhelming. In Google, a website’s ranking is based on more than 200 ranking factors covering its technical setup, content, links, speed, usability, and more. It takes a lot of expertise and experience to keep track of it all. Or does it?
Well, yes — and no. We’ve got both covered. All you need to do is profit from it. The XOVI NOW Advisor breaks down all you need to know into easy-to-digest tasks, telling you precisely what to do and why. These initial tasks are a mix of standard SEO measures and tasks tailored to your website’s needs. All you need to do is solve them. Today, you’ll learn how to use the Advisor and solve tasks.
Doing SEO Kanban-style
First, check out the Advisor’s board by clicking on Advisor in the top navigation bar. It is a Kanban board helping you organize your tasks by status. You can drag & drop as you complete tasks. Your tasks are color-coded by importance:
- Red: High. Solve ASAP.
- Yellow: Medium. Tackle those soon.
- Blue: Low. Keep them in mind and solve them when you can.
As mentioned above, tasks are a mix of standard, basic SEO measures and issues found in weekly, automated site audits of your website.
Advisor Integrations at Your Service
As you know, you’ll find the Advisor in the top navigation bar. But did you know that there are integrations throughout cPanel SEO so that you don’t have to stop what you’re doing to keep an eye on your tasks? There are two more ways to access your tasks:
- Advisor element in your Overview
- Advisor widget to activate a task sidebar
To activate or deactivate the task sidebar, click the Advisor menu icon to the right in your top navigation bar.
Tackle A Task
Now you know how the Advisor works, so let’s take a closer look at tasks. Simply click on any task to reveal everything you need to solve it, including links to articles for even more information.
When required, a task also provides a list of affected pages. You can open them in a new tab to view those pages and then check the box when you’ve fixed the issue for that page. That way, whenever you return to a task, you can easily pick up where you left off.
Create Your Own
Sure, we create tasks for you to help you optimize your website without being an SEO expert. In any case, you can add your very own tasks to better manage your website and SEO measures.
To do so, click the Add Task button in your Advisor and fill in the following information:
- Title
- Status
- Priority
- Category
- Description
Automated Task Updates
We run automated Site Audits for you weekly. In doing that, we check your website’s setup, content, and SEO compatibility.
Based on the results, we update your Advisor and its tasks. It’s a super-easy way for you to stay atop of any SEO issues your website might experience.
So, if we identify any issues concerning a task you completed in the past, it will automatically be updated and pop back up in the Open section.
Also, if you moved a task to the Done section but overlooked anything within its attached list, the task will update and return to the Open column.
Finally, if we detect any new issues, you’ll get new tasks for those, too.
Troubleshooting and FAQ
There are tasks I’ve long covered. Why do they pop up?
There are two reasons why you might see tasks you’ve already solved or covered. As mentioned above, tasks are a mix of basic SEO measures and issues found in weekly, automated site audits of your website.
First, the tasks covering basic SEO measures are the same for everyone and are not tailored to your website or business. For example, we don’t know whether you created a Google account for your business and set up Search Console, or if you installed SEO plugins. If you already did — great work! Simply flag those tasks as Done.
The second reason is that the Advisor is automatically updated based on the results of automated weekly Site Audits. In other words, if a Site Audit identifies any issues concerning a task you completed in the past, it will automatically be updated and pop up in the Open section.
