This guide is intended for users of Site Creator who want to optimize the SEO of their site.

Preamble

• Infomaniak is one of the most performant hosts in the French-speaking market, which contributes to the good referencing of your sites.
• However, Infomaniak will not intervene in the content or development of hosted sites (refer to this other guide regarding referencing).

Add Site Creator to Google

Prerequisites

• Access Site Creator:
  1. Click here to access the management of your product on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
  2. Click directly on the name assigned to the relevant product.
  3. Click on Customize my site:
     

To submit your site to the Google search engine:

1. Click on the Applications button in the left sidebar.
2. Click on the Add to Google application:
   
   
    
   • You can insert the verification code if you use Google Search Console.

Define the Meta tags

Once in Site Creator:

1. Click on the Settings button in the left sidebar.
2. Click on General Settings.
3. Click on SEO and statistics.
4. Insert title, description, and keywords for the entire site:
   
   

This is also where you can manage the robots.txt file if necessary.

To set this up for a specific page:

1. Click on the Settings button in the left sidebar.
2. Click on General Settings.
3. Click on Subpage settings.
4. Click on SEO & Metadata.

If you do not intervene on this page, it is Site Creator that dynamically manages your tags.

You can also manage the URLs of your pages independently of your page's SEO title (page named "Contact" for SEO purposes while its URL will be, for example, "/enterprise").

What are "Meta Keywords"?

To enter multiple keywords, separate them with a comma or similar:

Sitemap.xml

Do not confuse this with the Site Map module, the sitemap.xml file lists all the pages of your site to help search engines discover and index them effectively. You can examine it to understand the site structure; replace domain.xyz with your domain name to access it (publicly) from a browser:

https://domain.xyz/sitemap.xml

Submit your clean URL to Google Search Console (refer to the first chapter above in this guide) and other webmaster tools to improve indexing.

Insert tracking codes

Your website includes a simple Statistics module, but you can use Google Analytics or other tracking methods (such as Facebook Pixel, Google Tag...) that require inserting a code on your site:

1. Click on the Settings button in the left sidebar.
2. Click on General Settings.
3. Click on SEO and statistics.
4. Scroll down the page and insert your tracking codes.
