<p>A profile is a place on Facebook where you can share information about yourself, such as your interests, photos, videos, current city and hometown.</p>
<p>Profiles can also be places where creators connect with their fans by turning on professional mode. When a creator turns on professional mode, anyone can follow their profile and see the creator’s public content in their Feed. If you’re a creator with professional mode on your profile, you can still share information and posts to your friends only or to a public audience. To see your profile, click or tap your name or profile picture at the top of Facebook.</p>
<p><strong>Pages</strong></p>
<p>You must have a profile to create a Page or help manage one. Pages are places on Facebook where artists, public figures, businesses, brands, organizations and nonprofits can connect with their fans or customers. When someone likes or follows a Page on Facebook, they can start seeing updates from that Page in their Feed.</p>
<p>To see an example of a Page, see the screenshot below.</p>

<p><strong>Groups</strong></p>
<p>You must have a profile to create a group or help manage one. Groups are a place to communicate about shared interests with certain people. You can create a group for anything — your family reunion, your after-work sports team, your book club — and customize the group&#8217;s privacy settings depending on who you want to be able to join and see the group. When you join a group on Facebook, you start seeing content from that group in your Feed.</p>

<p>If what you are marketing through your ecommerce store is a product, then it is important to choose something that people are looking for and need. It would be helpful if it were a product that you could get easily and cheaply.</p>
<p>In terms of services, it is also important to provide services that users are looking for and need.</p>
<p>Finally, in both cases &#8211; goods or services &#8211; it is good to choose what you really like and are excited to sell.</p>

							<p>Once you have settled on your product or service, you need to start a market research in order to learn more about the competition in it as well as the needs of your customers.

<p><strong>Tip:</strong> A very good (and free) tool to do your research is Google.</p>
<p>Search for your product or service on Google and find where it says &#8220;Related Searches&#8221;. There you can find frequently asked questions that people ask on Google about what you want to sell.</p>
<p>We use this tool very often in the market research we do for our clients (see our <a href="https://webtrust.gr/5-technikes-seo-gia-na-ayxisete-tin-organiki-episkepsimotita-odigos-gia-archarioys/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">previous</a> <a href="https://webtrust.gr/5-technikes-seo-gia-na-ayxisete-tin-organiki-episkepsimotita-odigos-gia-archarioys/">post</a> &#8220;SEO Techniques to Increase Organic Traffic &#8211; A Beginner&#8217;s Guide&#8221;).</p>

							<p>The next step is to create an eshop. There are many ways for this to happen. You can do it yourself using some platforms and a ready-made template or contact a web development company.</p>
<p>If you have no experience in web development, it is better to talk to an expert so that you can create a more professional and functional eshop. Start a market research and look for a company that builds websites and online stores.</p>
<p><strong>Tip:</strong> Ask to see completed work and projects of other clients of the company you choose. This will make it easier for you to decide more quickly!</p>

							<p>SEO stands for search engine optimization and is the best way to attract more &#8220;eyeballs&#8221; to your website, content and brand.</p>
<p>By optimising your content for search engines, you increase your chances of ranking higher in search results.</p>
<p>Organic search is so effective because people who come across your content are actively searching for it. This usually means better quality leads and therefore more interaction and conversions.</p>
<p>SEO is a cost-effective way to boost your visibility and has huge long-term potential.</p>
<p>Unlike paid advertising, where your reach usually falls flat the moment you stop paying, a piece of content optimized for search engines can continue to get traffic months (or even years) after its initial creation.</p>
<p>It takes more effort beforehand and it may take some time to see results, but it&#8217;s definitely worth the wait.</p>

							<p>Looking at what your competitors are doing is a great way to gather information that could affect your SEO strategy.</p>
<p>Identify the keywords for which they rank highly and study their backlink profile &#8211; you&#8217;ll need an SEO tool like <a href="https://www.semrush.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Semrush</a> or <a href="https://diib.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Diib</a> for this.</p>
<p>We suggest that before you invest in purchasing an SEO tool, you should sign up for a free trial, gather the information you need and decide if you want to use this tool again in the future.</p>
<p>Another way to do this is to analyse the content of your competitors. Consider what they write about and what response they get from their audience. Don&#8217;t imitate their strategy, but evaluate what seems to work for them and use that knowledge to make decisions about your own strategy.</p>

							<p>Internal links are really useful for SEO, as they provide further information to your readers. Search engines see this as a more useful piece of your content.</p>
<p>Internal links also help search engines understand the relationship between different pages/posts on your website. It will also encourage readers to read more of your content.</p>
<p>You can also create links to other external sources if you think they are useful for your readers or if they make it easier for you to document your point of view. You should also turn every mention of a brand name into a link.</p>
<p>Backlinks, on the other hand, are an important ranking factor.</p>
<p>Backlinks are links from other websites to yours. Although quantity helps here, quality is even more important.</p>
<p>When high-quality sites link to your site, this tells the algorithm that your content is accurate and trustworthy.</p>
<p>Conversely, having suspicious sites linked to yours can damage your reputation, making it harder for you to rank at the top.</p>

							<p>Your SEO content will remain effective in the long run as long as it remains relevant.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s very important to frequently review older content that is performing well and update it if necessary.</p>
<p>It may not always be necessary, but think: is there anything else you can add to make this content even more valuable?</p>
<p>Or is there something in there that is no longer real or relevant? Regularly updating your content is an excellent practice for SEO.</p>
<p>Google tends to favour up-to-date and relevant content. This can also attract other users to share your content, and thus new backlinks from other websites. Backlinks should be part of your SEO strategy.</p>

							<p>Another important factor of SEO is the Core Web Vitals of your website. They are part of the ranking factors used by search engines and should not be overlooked.</p>
<p>Core Web Vitals are gathered through actual user data and these factors are important for an overall user experience. Counts:</p>
<ul>
<li>Largest Content Paint (LCP) &#8211; How long it takes to fully load the main content of your page (target is 2.5 seconds or less).</li>
<li>First Input Delay (FID) &#8211; How long it takes before users can actually interact with your content (target is 100 milliseconds or less).</li>
<li>Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) &#8211; How much your content moves around the page until it is placed in the correct position (target is 0.1 or less). <br />This may be too technical, but in general, it&#8217;s about the user&#8217;s experience when they first come across your site.</li>

<p>Some other factors to pay attention to:</p>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Page speed &#8211; Use tools like <a href="https://pagespeed.web.dev/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google PageSpeed Insights</a> or <a href="https://gtmetrix.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GTmetrix</a> to analyze your site speed and get recommendations for improvement.</span></li>

							<p>Now, in the digital age, where everything around us is done digitally and with a few taps on our mobile phones, searching online has become the first consideration for consumers and businesses alike. SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is a critical strategy that helps you optimize your presence in search engines. In this article we will explore the reasons why it is important to invest in SEO, whether you can do it yourself and whether you should work with an SEO company to achieve your goals.</p>

				<div class="elementor-widget-container">
							<p>SEO, or Search Engine Optimization, is the process of optimizing a website or blog in order to increase its visibility in search engines such as Google, Bing and Yahoo. The goal of SEO is to improve the position of the website in search results for specific keywords or phrases. This is achieved through content optimization, technical optimization of the website and the acquisition of external links (backlinks). By successfully implementing SEO, you can increase the traffic and quality of visitors to your website, helping to achieve your goals such as sales, subscribers or increasing brand awareness.</p>

							<p>Searching online is the primary way people find information, products and services that interest them. SEO helps businesses optimize their presence in search engines such as Google, Bing and Yahoo in order to appear in reliable positions in search results. This leads to increased visibility, increased traffic to your website and more effective promotion of your products and services.</p>
<p>There are many reasons why SEO is important:</p>
<ol>
<li>Increase Visibility: with SEO, you can improve your website&#8217;s search engine visibility. This means that more people will be able to find you when they search for relevant keywords related to what you offer.</li>
<li>Increase Traffic: By optimizing your website for search engines, you will attract more visitors to your website. This can lead to an increase in traffic, sales and customer contacts.</li>
<li>Best User Experience: Optimizing your website for search engines includes improving the user experience. This means that your website should load quickly, be easy to read and adapt for mobile devices, providing a better experience for users.</li>
<li>Competitive Advantage: In a competitive online world, SEO can give you a significant advantage over your competitors. If your website is optimised and appears high in search results, then it is more likely to be preferred by users than your competitors.</li>

				<div class="elementor-widget-container">
							<p>There are many reasons to invest in SEO but we will mention some of them below, perhaps the most important ones:</p>
<ol>
<li>Increased visibility: SEO helps you appear in the top positions of search results. Users rarely go to the second page of results, so your visibility on the first page is critical to attracting them.</li>
<li>Directed traffic: Visitors who come to your site through searches are directed and are likely to be interested in your products or services. This means that the chances of converting them into customers are higher.</li>
<li>Impact on trust: when your website appears in the top positions of search results, you gain credibility in the eyes of users. Showing you as a leader in your industry can boost their confidence and make them more likely to do business with you.</li>
<li>Competitive advantage: If your competitors are investing in SEO and you&#8217;re not, there&#8217;s a good chance you&#8217;re losing traffic and customers in the market. By optimizing your website, you can create a competitive advantage and stay ahead.</li>

				<div class="elementor-widget-container">
							<p>Deciding whether you need an SEO company depends on many factors, such as the budget you can afford, your knowledge and experience in SEO. While you can handle some basic optimization on your own, working with a qualified SEO company can provide multiple benefits.</p>
<p>SEO companies have the knowledge and tools to analyze your website, identify problems and opportunities for improvement, and implement strategies that will increase your visibility in search results. In addition, working with an SEO company or a freelancer will allow you to focus on your primary activities and free up time for other strategic aspects of your business.</p>

<p>While you can take some basic SEO steps on your own, working with a company that specializes in SEO can enhance your efforts and get you professional results. Remember, however, to choose a reputable SEO company with experience and a successful track record to benefit from the full power of SEO strategy.</p>

							<p><a href="https://wordpress.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WordPress</a> has been the most popular CMS (Content Management System) in the world for several years.</p>
<p>This is of course what makes it more vulnerable to would-be hackers.</p>
<p>Below we explain how you can disable file editing from within the WordPress admin panel. </p>
<p><strong>Step 1</strong><br />Connect via FTP to the files of your Site.</p>
<p>*You can use a program like <a href="https://filezilla-project.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FileZilla</a> or <a href="https://cyberduck.io/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CyberDuck</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Step 2</strong><br />Find the file <strong>wp-config.php</strong></p>
<p><strong>Step 3</strong><br />Right click and then click edit</p>
<p><strong>Step 4</strong><br />Find the line</p>
<pre>/* Add any custom values between this line and the "stop editing" line. */</pre>
<p><strong>Step 5</strong><br />Right after that add</p>
<pre>define( 'DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT', true ); // Added by .webtrust</pre>
<p><strong>Step 6</strong><br />Save the changes you&#8217;ve made and upload the file to the Server</p>
<p><strong>Ready</strong><br />Now file editing is disabled in the WordPress admin panel.</p>
