Page Settings

Setting your Page Title, Description and Keywords can help search engines figure out how your site should appear in their results.You can set up your Page Settings for each page you create, and we suggest you do so to make sure your pages are indexed by search engines as accurate as possible. 

Here is how the fields you fill out compare to actual search engine results of that page.

Robots

Want to work on a page but don’t want it to show up in Search Engines? Not a problem, when you go to publish your page just check the “Robots: Do not allow this page to be indexed by robots” option before you hit publish. You can do this on a page by page level, allowing you to control what search engines see and what they index.

Require Password to View Page

Every once in a while there is a need to publish something on the internet while restricting who has access to see it. While our Robots option will hide the page from being saved by Search Engines it does mean that anyone who clicks something to go to that page can see it. In order to restrict who can see a page you publish you can use the “Require Password to View Page” option. Clicking this box (under Page Settings) will allow you to set a page password. When users arrive on that page they will have to enter the password (you do not need to enter a username) in order to view the page. So just click to activate password protecting, enter the password and hit save.

How do I use this template?
Unlike most templates this requires no programming, no downloads, and no fancy pants installs. All you need to do is select it and sign up for a website. We host everything so you'll be free to access your site where ever you have the internet.

I see a video player, can I put video on this?
Yes'm you can. A Standard Bizideo Wizard account includes video uploads/encoding/hosting and streaming. So you can manage your website and your video all in one place.

What does a Wizard Account require?
An internet connection and one of the latest versions of the following browsers: Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox or Safari. You'll also need a mouse or a laptop touch pad. You can sign up for a free trial or if you know this is what you want you can purchase an account online and start working immediately.

No downloads, who hosts this stuff?
Yep, you don't need any downloads unless you don't have a browser, in which case I'm impressed your reading this. Bizideo also hosts everything either on our Cloud or on our Content Delivery Network. It's included in your price, and yes we know that's really cheap compared to other media delivery systems but don't worry it covers up to 5GB in bandwidth. (Yes that includes all your uploaded video and encoding.)

Request a Free 30 Day Trial or try it without registering. 

What is the top browser?

Chrome is Top Browser Again

Every once in a while it's a good idea to check to see what the most popular browser is out there, and to save you some time we thought we'd post the latest here. July ended with Chrome on top, with 52.8% of users, followed by 28.9% for Firefox.

W3Schools has these findings detailed here: http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp

(Don't worry if you use the Bizideo Website Wizard we have you covered since we support all the major browsers.)
