Previously we have published an article about the process of setting up an cookie free domain or cookieless domain, where we have mentioned about creating a static version of your website.

If you have read the article already you must known about what is cookies and how it is useful for storing user informations into the browsers.

However, in the other hand cookies can hinder your webpage performance by not delivering static content to the visitors web browsers.

One example of cookieless domain decreasing page performance: detected by gtmetrix

When a browser makes request for static files on your page such as an image, CSS file etc there is no need for it to add cookies with it, which results in sending additional traffic to the server. And additional traffic means more waiting time for the response by the server.

You can try these steps if you think your server response time is not good.

So the advantage of setup a cookieless domain is that you can separate the content that doesn’t require cookies from the content that requires it.

Using cookieless domain will deduct unnecessary network traffic and eventually increase the server response time + the page performance.

How to setup a cookieless domain for WordPress site

There are couple of ways to set up a cookieless domain. You can read all the procedures in this page. However, in this article, I will mention how to set it up manually for WordPress website.

Before starting the process one thing you need to remember that if you set cookies on the top level domain ( yourdomain.com) all the subdomains will also include the cookies in them. Because, as it sets on the primary domain its childs are going to have the DNA for sure.

So in this case, you are recommended to use a separate domain to deliver static content. It’s a better idea if you register a new domain and configure the web server to serve static resources from the new address. You will completely prevent any cookies to be set in the new domain.

Instead, you can also set two different domains. One which includes cookies and one which doesn’t set cookies. In such a case, will set cookies on a www subdomain (www.yourdomain.com) and separately host your static files from another subdomain like (static.yourdomain.com). This static domain will no longer send cookies with your static files of a page.

Read the following procedures to setup a cookieless domain in WordPress.

1. Create a subdomain

Go to your cpanel and create a subdomain like static.yourdomain.com. From this subdomain you will serve or host all the static files.

Go to subdomains > make sure you are on the page ” create subdomain” > place “static” on the subdomain box > let domain box stay in default name > click on create.

2. Point subdomain to wp-content

Now point the newly created subdomain to the “/wp-content” directory of WordPress installation folder.

To do it again go to your subdomains and edit the settings by clicking on the edit icon next to your new static domain.

It will take you to the document root settings where you need to update the root address from “public_html/static” to “public_html/wp-content”.

3. Update your wp-config file

Go to the file manager using cpanel or ftp client and edit the wp-config file. Make sure the following code is available or added inside the file.

<?php
define(“WP_CONTENT_URL“,“https://static.yourwebsite.com“);
define(“COOKIE_DOMAIN“,“www.yourwebsite.com“);
?>

• Remember to correct your domain names accordingly.

4. Direct url to new subdomain

Before taking this step make sure you backup your database in awar to any kind of misconfiguration. Better to practice with demo site before applying in live the version. I do not take any responsibility for further loss of data or website down.

Now you need to run sql query on database table. Go to phpmyadmin > select your wp database > go to SQL tab and paste the following code in the command box.

UPDATE wp_posts SET post_content = REPLACE(post_content,’www.yourwebsite.com/wp-content/’,’static.yourwebsite.com/’)

This will make sure all the post urls are directed to the new subdomain.

• Again make sure that you have corrected the domain details inside the code.

Once you setup everything your cookie domain and static domain are ready for action. And the static domain will start delivering static resources without sending unnecessary cookies traffic.

I hope this guide will help you to establish your static site without any additional problems. Make sure you comment down below in case you need any more information.

What is the “holy grail” for Content Marketing? The answer is:  The ability to predictably say that if you target a keyword with a specific criteria, and produce an article that meets certain specifications, you will be “guaranteed” to rank in the top 10 of Google.  

Today we look at how CognitiveSEO can help in this quest!

The “Holy Grail” of Content Marketing might be a long shot, but we are always using our unique position of publishing A LOT of quality articles on great sites with Content Refined to try and come closer to understanding the variables that will rank your content with certainty on search engines. With the sheer number of articles published, along with access to data science talent, we were able to perform a multivariable regression analysis that we think it is worth pursuing.

In this article, we are going to talk about the results from one specific tool that can provide more metrics about both the keyword and content quality compared to almost any other tool on the market. 

CognitiveSEO provides an amazing array of metrics for data driven content marketers to dig into and analyze against the performance of their content. Where you would need data from several different tools such a SEMRush, MarketMuse and Ahrefs etc., CognitiveSEO consolidates a lot of that functionality into one super awesome tool. A great solution for those who have too many ongoing SAAS subscriptions already (I’ve been so guilty of this). 

So by using just CognitiveSEO, what are the metrics that would “guarantee” a ranking in the top 10? Come on a stats adventure with us.

Stats Disclaimer – Before we get dig too deeply into these numbers, it’s important that we share what some of the statistical performance was for these. 

The Keyword Monthly Volume, Content Performance, Article Word Count and URL Character length are the most valuable variables to analyze. Analyzing  50+ regression scenarios,12.42% r square is the best regression result available using a majority of only CognitiveSEO’s Variables. The best single regression variable, content performance, achieved an r squared value of 4.4%. In most successful multi regression analysis, a variable ” anchor” is needed to drive line of best fit. This seems to be missing as the most successful single regression variable only has 4.4% correlation to google rankings, making it hard to fit the rest of the data to variable with little fit. Actionable insights are still achieved and are explained below. 

Actionable Insights: 

If you are trying to create content that will predictably rank on google, according to CognitiveSEO, you want to follow these guidelines. 

Metrics: 

Minimum Conditions:

• Keyword difficulty should be at least 17
• Content performance score should be at least  51
• The readability score should be at least 47
• Minimum article length should be 250 words

Ideal Conditions: 

• Keyword difficulty should be at least 17
• Content performance score should be at least 85
• The readability score should be at least 65
• Minimum article length should be 1400 words

I checked to see if one of my best ranking pages met this criteria, and check out my findings below! 

My article “How to Build a PBN” is a great example of this. This article does really well–it has 10 keywords ranking in the top 3 spots on Google and it has been picked up for Google’s featured snippet for this article. 

In this case all of the “Ideal” Criteria were met!

• Keyword difficulty should be at least 17
  • For my Keyword it was 37
• Content performance score should be at least 85
  • Our content performance score was 97
• The readability score should be at least 65
  • Ours was 75
• Minimum article length should be 1400 words
  • We went big with this one and it was 14,743 words long! 

Conclusion: 

So what does this mean? Have we “cracked the code” of content marketing? According to this data analysis (which has pulled on hundreds of articles written by Content Refined) we are able to predict that if the ideal conditions of an article are met, you should be able to rank in the top 10 of Google. We’ve given you the Holy Grail–so give CognitiveSEO a try for yourself and really step up your game in the world of content marketing.
