Important Note

do-not-indexWhen adding content to your website you should strive to provide unique content that is written by you or someone else specifically for your website.

If content has been copied from a third-party source, the page cannot be indexed* and it will not help with your ranking. If this is the case, we ask that you please click the Do Not Index button in the post.

*Indexing content allows the search engines such as Google to review your page’s information. If the page is not indexed, the search engines will not see the page. Duplicate content found by search engines can cause your site to be penalized or be removed entirely from the search engines.

Alternate Text: When adding a picture, it is always a good idea to add an image description to the “Alt Text”. It allows the viewer to note what the image is, in the event that they cannot view it.

“Free” Images: Please note that it is important to make sure that you have permission to use an image or photo before placing it on your website. If you did not take the picture yourself or have someone take it for you, you will have to purchase the rights to use the image on your website. There are many sites that you can purchase a photo at a reasonable fee. Google Images are not free to use on your site.


Smile Marketing Syndicated Content

What Are All These Pages Under Smile Marketing?

The pages located in the Pages Smile Marketing section are associated with all of the patient-focused content we’ve provided for your website. These pages can be found in your sidebar menu and throughout your website, including techniques or procedures, stock content pages, newsletter articles, and any new information we publish for you.
Can I Delete a Page Under Smile Marketing?

Sure, if there is a particular page you would like removed from your site do the following:

  • go to the Pages Smile Marketing tab in the left column.
  • Locate the page you wish to Delete
  • Click once on the Trash link that appears when you hover over the title of the page.

NOTE: Please leave any unwanted pages in your Trash. Do not empty the trash. Here’s why…

Each day your website connects to our database to check for any new pages added or updated. During the comparison process, if it sees that a page does not exist, it will copy it back to your site. If the deleted page still resides in your “Trash,” then it will stay deleted and will not be copied back into your content.
