Hello,

I was just changing some keywords on my site and I was wondering is it wise to write down the changes I make to make sure if they work or not?

    Yes, keep track of changes.

    Something easy I do is simply submit my webpage/s to Wayback Archive before I make changes, this way I have the old version of the webpage saved online with almost no effort.

    To submit a page to Wayback, go to their Home page and paste your page URL in the text box on the right side of the page. Click the SAVE PAGE button.

  • I didn't know you can submit your site to archive.org I thought they only crawl your site.

    Thanks for letting me know.
  • Surely! If you make lots of little tweaks and changes, that would be rather hard to relate any impact to a specific change if you don`t keep track of them; I`d totally recommend to make notes. Also, a nice tip to keep to the older version of a page by submitting it to Wayback prior to updating. I personally mark the changes I make right on progress graphs in my rank checking tool - each one overlays the rankings and traffic graphs, so I can easily see if any changes match any leaps or spikes in my positions or visits.
  • I dont bother with so much. Coz i end up spending months on each of my sites. As long as you remember the major changes, everything will be fine.
  • Write Down in sheet all changes. If your changes is not work then update all keywords.
  • Your question reminded me of my grandmother who died 20 years ago, and who left behind thousands of hand-written pages about every day of her life.
    He was a trully bogger, before blogging has even been discovered.
    Since I've found those notes, I believe, it's impossible to write down your changes and actions.
    So, yes, Julie, write them down!
