Manual content import

In order to analyze existing content (content audit), the existing content URLs must be imported.

1. Make sure you the content pipeline is set up according to your needs (Content Types, Tags, Custom Fields, etc.)
   
2. Go to: SETTINGS > SETUP > PROJECTS: Click on the name of your project, select Step 2 "Competitors" and put in as much as 3 competitors. contentbird will then monitor these domains in regards to your keywordset.
   
3. Go to: SETTINGS > IMPORT
   
4. Download the offered xcel import template, it resembles the import table you see in the browser, but it is much more convenient to collect the data in xcel.
   
5. Please fill the import template with data. The following columns are mandatory (marked with an asterisk in the browser´s import table)
   
   - Project
   - Title
   - Status
   - Language
   - Type
   
   This data we need to track your content:
   
   - URL
   - Published on
   - Google domain
   - Keywords
   
   Note: Make sure the writing (upper/ lower case) of the data is correct whenever you refer to data that´s already been defined in contentbird. F.e. "Type": If you put in "blog Post" instead of "Blog Post" the tool will not accept it.
   
6. Copy and paste the data into the browser´s import table and hit "Start import" at the bottom, of the page.
   
7. Go to ANALYSIS > CONTENT the next day, by then most of the data should have been pulled.

Note: In order for a content to be analyzed, it needs

• a URL where the content is published
• a publishing date from the past
• assigned keywords

To track visitors, time on page and bounce rate, Google Analytics must be connected to the content´s project.
