Welcome to the updated XLink SEO Generator beta—your free tool to generate, edit, and upload SEO-optimized pages fast! Follow these steps to get started. Got questions? Hit us up on X @xlinkconnector!

Step 1: Sign Up or Log In

  1. Visit the App: Head to https://xlinkapp.netlify.app/.
  2. Sign Up: New? Enter an email and password, click “Sign Up (2 Free Runs)”—you’ll get 2 free generations to test it out.
  3. Log In: Returning? Use your email and password, hit “Log In”—you’ll land on the Dashboard.

Tips: Forgot your password? DM us on X—we’ll sort it. Session expired? Log back in if you see that message.

Step 2: Generate Your SEO Pages

  1. Dashboard: On /dashboard, you’ll see your runs left (2 for new users).
  2. Enter Website URL: Type your site’s base URL (e.g., https://yourwebsite.com)—must be live for analysis.
  3. Add Services: List services (e.g., plumbing, roofing)—these pair with locations for page titles and URLs.
  4. Add Locations: List target locations (e.g., seattle, portland)—combined with services (e.g., plumbing-seattle.html).
  5. Backlink Swap (Optional): Check “Backlink Swap” to include partner links (see Partner Links).
  6. Generate: Click “Generate”—it spins, then downloads seo-pages.zip. Site title and description appear below.

Tips: Short lists work best. Errors? Check URL (needs https://) or tweet us!

Step 3: Save the ZIP File

  1. Find It: Browser saves seo-pages.zip to “Downloads” (check download bar or arrow).
  2. Move It (Optional): Drag to desktop or a folder—keep it zipped for now.

Tips: No download? Check pop-up blocker. File’s tiny—compression’s on us.

Step 4: Upload to Your Hosting

  1. Log In: Access your hosting panel (cPanel, Plesk, etc.)—find “File Manager” or FTP.
  2. Root Directory: Go to public_html, httpdocs, or / (check host docs if unsure).
  3. Upload: Click “Upload,” pick seo-pages.zip—wait till it’s done.

Tips: FTP option: Use FileZilla, drag to public_html. Slow? Blame your host.

Step 5: Unzip on Your Server

  1. Locate: In File Manager, spot seo-pages.zip in your root.
  2. Unzip: Right-click → “Extract” (or toolbar “Extract”)—creates seo-pages with HTML files and sitemap.xml.
  3. Check: Open seo-pages—see files like plumbing-seattle.html.

Tips: No “Extract”? Ask host support—SSH option: unzip seo-pages.zip.

Step 6: Move Pages to Root

  1. Select Files: In seo-pages, select all HTML files and sitemap.xml.
  2. Move: Drag to public_html (or “Move” to /public_html)—e.g., public_html/plumbing-seattle.html.
  3. Clean Up: Delete the empty seo-pages folder.

Tips: Overwrite if prompted. Test: https://yourwebsite.com/plumbing-seattle.html.

Step 7: Verify It’s Live

  1. Check URLs: Visit https://yourwebsite.com/plumbing-seattle.html—see your site’s design with new SEO content?
  2. Sitemap: Check https://yourwebsite.com/sitemap.xml—submit to Google Search Console (optional).

Tips: 404s? Files must be in root, not subfolder. CSS off? Check your site’s URLs.

Step 8: Edit Past Generations (Optional)

  1. History: From /history, see past runs (URL, date).
  2. Edit: Click “Edit” on a run—loads files (e.g., plumbing-seattle.html). Pick one, edit in the GrapesJS editor.
  3. Save: Hit “Save Edited ZIP”—updates history. Download again if needed.
  4. Back: Use “Back to Dashboard” to return.

Tips: Editor slow? Wait for “Loading...” to clear. Changes save to your account.

Step 9: Explore Partner Links

  1. Partner Links: Visit /links—see our partners in two columns.
  2. Backlink Swap: Enabled in Step 2? Your pages link to them—boosts SEO for all!
