Server Side Includes
What exactly are Server Side Includes? How could you increase your rankings through SSI?
Server Side Includes (SSI) is a simple server-side language, which enables you to include text from a specified source inside a web page. In the most popular case, the text from one file is integrated in a second one, giving a site the sense that it's dynamic. As an example, if your site has ten web pages, five of them can easily have the content of some file, for example horoscope.txt. In case you modify this text file, the new content will come up on all of the five web pages, which shall let you revise your website much easier than if you had to update an element of all five web pages. Server Side Includes is at times used to contain the output of simple commands, scripts or functions as well - a hit counter that is shown on the website, the current time and date or the visitor's IP address. Every webpage that works by using SSI should have a particular extension - .shtml.
