The most common question:

1.“Why is it that cat doesn’t work for me?”
or “Why is the LJ and HTML markup entered into the post not working and being published as is?”
The fact is that on the page "Write a post" (http://www.livejournal.com/update.bml) there are TWO modes - "Visual editor" and "HTML". The tags presented here only work in "HTML" mode.

The success of any blog promotion depends on high-quality web analytics, including keyword selection, position tracking, comparison with competitors, page optimization analysis.

I want to remind you that Serpstat (former prodvigator.ru) is just a tool that helps to collect diverse statistics, and it is up to the optimizer to make decisions based on these data. The SEO optimizer makes decisions thanks to the most complete statistics based on his knowledge, skills and work experience.

Everyone's promotion is different:

it can be promotion for low-frequency queries, writing many articles for low-frequency ones.
more successful is to check requests for competitiveness and write articles on low-competitive topics. At the same time, requests can be mid-frequency. Such requests exist, but they are not obvious. In this case, the optimizer spends most of its time looking for such queries.
buying links. Until now, disputes continue on whether links affect the position of the site in search engines for certain queries. In any case, the process of buying links today has undergone significant changes. Links are bought on sites of the same or related topics, in a feature article and as naturally as possible inscribed in the text.
writing guest posts. These are also links, but, as a rule, they are free and the most natural, since you write the guest post yourself or a copywriter writes it on special order. You are interested in attracting an audience to your blog.
high-quality optimization of all pages of the site.
work to reduce the number of failures, including work to improve navigation and design. - your way. For a more detailed study of the topic, read the article.

.. Let's return to the review of the Serpstat service. This is a high-quality service for analyzing your site and competitors' sites. Using it, you can identify your shortcomings, find ideas for topics for writing articles, understand where you are inferior to your competitors, and what actions you need to take to level the gap. This service is paid, and the prices are quite high. There is also a free plan that offers you limited features. For the initial diagnosis, it will be enough. In addition, the free plan will help you try this service, and decide on the purchase of a more advanced plan. In my future articles, I will continue to introduce you to similar services for comparison. In this demo review, you will see real analytics numbers for one of my sites.

Before using Serpstat, you need to go through a simple registration. Next, move to the top of the menu in the "List of projects", and add your project.

Add your project by entering your project data in the fields - domain, project name and define the group in which your project will be listed.

Immediately after adding the project, you will receive primary information on the analyzed domain. This is the number of SEO keys, primary analysis of regional issuance, the number of referring pages and domains.

Here you can see that the site is in the growth stage for seo-keys in all search engines. This is due to the active content of the site for relatively low-competitive keys. There are few references, as I did not pay due attention to this issue.

Remove by CAT means to hide part of the post

- in the diary on the main page and in the friends feed.

This word comes from the English verb "cut" (cut, cut). This was invented in order to ensure that more messages were visible on one page.

The text is hidden under the cut so that the reader is not forced to view a bunch of unnecessary pictures or a huge text, but to show 1-2 photos or 5-10 lines of text. And let him decide for himself, but does he want to watch or read the rest?

Each service has its own way of removing a message under the cat. On LiRu - this is a tag.

How to remove a message under the cut in LiRu?

We divide our message into 2 parts: brief news (what your message is about, the beginning of the message), - THIS WILL BE A VISIBLE PART

And the full news (continuation of the message) .- WHAT WILL BE HIDDEN UNDER THE CUT.

And the third part (optional) is what you want to leave visible at the very end of the post (for example, I have a separator, an emoticon, and so on.)

Just put this tag at the beginning of the second part of the post (the one you want to keep under the cut) of your message.

2. METHOD. ANY inscription you have written

3. METHOD. image (HTML code that you have registered)

My words HTML code for some image carefully erase, and instead of them, write the code of the picture.
An image appears in the text (the HTML code of which was written), under which there is a link to the continuation of the message.

On the Internet, Photoshop craftsmen have created wonderful buttons for any topic. You can also make a button yourself and upload it as a regular picture in the field between the tags.

And when you click on it, your message will open

You can insert a picture not by HTML code, but simply take its address on the site where you found it, and insert this address between these tags.

PICTURE ADDRESS]

To make it clearer, look at the codes of some buttons. You can simply copy the code in the box and paste it into your post. The text after inserting this code will go under cat. (that is, it will not be visible).

There are a lot of buttons, on all topics, so insert and decorate your blogs. Who does not know where to get buttons - transitions

The closing tag is the tag

That is, what is located between the tags (opening) and (closing) () is HIDDEN, that is, IS UNDER THE CUT

Everything that is located BEFORE opening TAG, and AFTER closing, will be visible in the message.

2. You can hide any part of the message and even several of its parts. Hidden parts should be placed between the opening or (if with a picture) and closing tags.

3. Always close the opening tag closing tag.

4. There can be more than one tag in a message, but any number of tags.
That is, you can take some part of the message under the cat (for example, pictures), then, putting a closing tag, leave some part open, then open the tag again, and hide the rest of the post under the cat again. They all open at the same time.

Advantages of hiding "under the cut"

In my opinion, if the reader came to the blog for the first time or he visits it periodically, once a week, for example, then it will be much more convenient for him to scroll through short announcements. I skimmed quickly, noticed interesting headlines and topics, opened them in separate windows and moved on. This is how I do it on the hub.

Another advantage of using kata is that it is better for indexing and rankings. The point is that if you display the full text on the main page, then the page with the article itself will no longer be unique. In fact, this is a controversial point, since I have seen many popular blogs where the texts on the main page were displayed in full and at the same time the visitor there was from 1k and above. So I think this paragraph is nonsense :D

It is also worth noting another point in terms of convenience. Personally, I'm not comfortable flipping pages with full articles. I'm looking for something interesting, and to get through even one article of 2-3 thousand characters, I need to turn and turn the mouse wheel. I do not like it.
The second disadvantage of NOT using kata is that if there are a lot of pictures or videos in the article, then this miracle will be loaded for a very long time. Bad in terms of internal optimization and inconvenient for users.

How to hide text under cat in WordPress and other CMS

Everything is very simple here. If you use, then they all support this feature. In the visual editor of WordPress, for example, this button is used for this: . But I advise you to write posts in HTML mode, and there you will see the code:

Everything is very simple, as you can see.
Well, now you know what CUT is, how to use it in WordPress and some other platforms.

Do you use a cut or display full articles on the main page?

Today in the rubric we are discussing the pitfalls of such a phenomenon as "cut", "under the cut" (sometimes they write "tackle"). (And just in case, we tell you how to remove the text “under the cut”, if you don’t already know this).

If you are a surfer on the Internet, then you have probably noticed that there are two types of blogs. In some articles on the main page are given in their entirety. In others, you see only short announcements on the main page with a link inviting you to continue reading (that is, the rest of the post is hidden “under the cut”).

At first glance, this distinction seems not so important, but there are some points that are worth paying attention to.

"Under the cut": pros and cons

If a reader visits your blog for the first time or visits periodically, then it is probably more convenient for him to view short announcements in order to be able to quickly familiarize himself with the topics of articles and choose an interesting one for him. Only these announcements should be intriguing to make you want to continue reading.

In addition, short announcements on the main page have a better effect on indexing and site performance than full texts. After all, search robots index the main page and each article. In the case of full texts on the main page, the content is completely duplicated. And we all have known for a long time that search engines really do not like duplicate text (even if they are within the same blog) and reduce the performance of this resource.

How to remove text under cat

You can hide the text “under the cut” (that is, make a short announcement) as follows. Put the cursor in the place where you want to hide the text, and click on the button if it's wordpress, or if it's a blogspot.

In LiveJournal, this button is called "LiveJournal Inset" and looks like this:

This is done differently in different systems, but the meaning is clear from the picture - the announcement is cut off from the rest of the text, or, so to speak, the record is broken. That's all! A dividing line will appear and when publishing, you will see only the text up to this line and a link, by clicking on which you can continue reading the article.

We have already talked about both about and about, but, firstly, repetition is the mother of learning, secondly, many still have questions, and thirdly, in the time that has passed since the lesson about kat, he managed to become dynamic . What does this mean and how, in the end, does a cat differ from a spoiler? Read in today's lesson (under the cut :))

The etiquette of blogging in LiveJournal implies that large texts and photos should be hidden under links so that they do not “break” or “clog” the feed of friends. Of course, this rule is not written anywhere, but if you want to be polite to your readers, you should not forget about cat.

Why hide part of the text under the link?

Both the cat and the spoiler are designed so that part of the record can be hidden under the link. There are several reasons for this:

increase the speed of loading pages of friends' feeds or a magazine. Some people view LiveJournal from a mobile phone, someone has a slow or limited Internet, and in order for the page to load faster, it is better to remove large heavy pictures under the cat
basic courtesy. There is no clearly defined etiquette in LiveJournal, but it is still considered that large amounts of text and many photographs should be removed under the link. This way you do not make your friends scroll through your post for a long time. The requirements for kat in communities are especially strict, there they can even be banned for not putting it down.

So, it is customary to remove long texts under the link (usually everything that is longer than a couple of paragraphs of five lines each), all photographs (you can leave one in front of the cut, not the largest), as well as pictures that can offend someone's feelings or that pass like "materials for adults" (many people read the feed of friends at work).

Have you noticed that everywhere, except for one case, I said “under the link”, and not “under the cut”? It's time to figure out what kind of links are possible and why in some cases kat is preferable.

I hope this table has answers to all possible questions:

	Cat	Spoiler
How to put?	Visual Editor: Button	Visual Editor: Button
Can you put it on the notes?	Yes	Yes
Can you put it in the comments?	Not	Yes
Can I open it directly in the friends feed?	Yes	Yes
How to open?	Click on the link or use the keyboard shortcut "ctrl alt +"	Click on the link
Where will it open?	On the current page	On the current page
Can you roll?	Yes	Not yet (but definitely possible)
How to turn?	Click on the "Collapse" link	Not yet
When is the content below the link loaded?	Only after clicking on	When loading the page (that is, even before clicking on the spoiler)
Rolled up in your friends feed?	Yes	Yes
Collapsed on the page of the post itself?	Expanded on the first page of post comments Collapses on the second and subsequent pages of comments	Yes
Does it show up on the preview page?	Not	Yes
Is a click on a link displayed in the statistics (counts as a visit to the post and view)?	Yes	Not

I want to draw your attention to the point "When is the content under the link loaded?".

If the photos are removed under the cut, then all the information before and after the cut will be loaded in the friends feed, and the photos under the cut will be loaded only after the user clicks on the link. This may take a couple of seconds, but the traffic will not be spent immediately.

If the photos are hidden under a spoiler, then they will be loaded along with the page. After clicking on the spoiler link, it will open instantly - but if there are a lot of photos, then the entire feed of friends may take longer to load.

This means that you should not use a spoiler instead of a cat if you put a lot of photos or other "heavy" content under the link. In fact, this means that you increase the load time of the feed and the traffic consumption of your friends (and they may not be going to read this particular post).

A spoiler is best suited for hiding a piece of text - in fact, this is what it was created for :)
