Do I need to connect my website, and how do I do it?

Do I have to connect?

No. SEOmise can scan any public website without it. Connecting adds two things:

• Publishing: a site connector puts the fixes you approve live on your site, and can undo them.
• Visitors: a small tracker counts visits and shows who is on your site right now.

The ways to connect, by platform

• WordPress and WooCommerce: one click, or download the plugin. The one line of code also works, for visitors only.
• Laravel: the Laravel connector, or the PHP connector. Or the one line of code, for visitors only.
• CodeIgniter and other PHP sites (custom PHP, Symfony, CakePHP): the PHP connector, or the one line of code.
• Drupal and Joomla: the one line of code, or the PHP connector.
• Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, Ghost, Framer, HubSpot, static sites, JavaScript apps (React, Vue, Next.js and others) and the rest: the one line of code. Fixes come ready for you to apply by hand, with steps for your platform.

Where to connect

• During set-up, on the Connect screen: I use WordPress, or Detect my platform. Detect for me looks at your site and picks the right way; Choose my platform lets you pick it yourself.
• Later: Start here → Connect the website → Connect now.
• Or: Settings → Site connector (connectors and pairing codes) and Settings → Install guide (steps for every platform, with your own code filled in).

Good to know

• Connectors that publish come with plans that include direct publishing. Visitor tracking comes with plans that include it. If something is not in your plan, the screen says so.
• Not ready? Press Scan my website without connecting and connect later.
• If a platform is not supported yet, set-up shows a waitlist. Press Remind me when it's ready and we e-mail you.
