Aside from saving time with tips and results, what other benefits does Tipstrr bring?


Part of the reason running a site can be so difficult is SEO. SEO stands for "Search Engine Optimisation", and relates to how members find your site. Many of you will use Twitter and Facebook to get your traffic, but what do you do to get organic traffic?

Companies can invest a lot of money in getting their site SEO friendly. We've taken this burden for you, so whilst you're out advertising your site, Google and other search engines are happily logging pages and remembering you next time someone searches.

So how do we help you with SEO? Many ways!


1) Sitemap

All sites have a dynamic sitemap tailored specifically to TipstrrEngine. This will include all tips, results, pages, blog posts, and everything in between. No more having to generate a sitemap weekly (or using site plugins that will attempt to figure it out). You can see an example of the sitemap at "http://playground.tipstrrengine.com/sitemap.xml"


2) RSS feeds

With the next version, TipstrrEngine introduces RSS feeds to everywhere that matters. This means feeds for tips, blogs, and pages. On top of that, we've handled the newer HTML 5 tags so that crawlers will find these feeds.


3) Social tags

Maybe people are sharing your posts to Facebook, maybe to Twitter? But what will people see? Well, without a bit of work, nothing interesting. With the release of v1.11 we've done the footwork to make sure that if someone shares your tip, it's your tip image people will see, and a relevant description. Your website will be easier to share in today's social world.


4) Page Speeed

Many people do not realise this, but Google now takes a sites speed and usability into account. The TipstrrEngine has been designed from the ground up with mobile in mind. We also cache and compress in all the right places, to ensure Google gives a great PageSpeed score. Compared to some of biggest Tipsters who aren't yet on the engine, we're miles ahead!


5) Analytics

Whilst not strictly SEO, it still relates to how many people see your site, so I'm including it. Ever wonder how often your site gets visited? Who by? What the most important source of traffic is? You no longer have to. All premium TipstrrEngine sites come with full Google Analytics contracts. Let us know what your Google account is, and we'll hook you up.
