Features of MyPost
The purpose of creating a post is to write content that appeals to you and your audience. In order for you to create a beautifully written post, you should have a good understanding of all the control you have over your post. This article will highlight all the features on the post page.
Posts
Headline: this is the title of your article and will also appear as the main headline in search engines and shared social media links.
*This field is required.
Description: this gives general information about what your post is about and may appear in search engines and shared social media links.
Custom URL: this is the location or address of your post on MyPost. When someone searches the Internet and discovers your post, they will be able to access your post with the URL. The prefix of the URL is already set up for you. The URL should closely match the headline with the major keywords, or the main points in the headline.
Password: Every post needs a password in order to be published. Since MyPost does not have user registrations, profiles, or accounts, it associates your password and post together in order to identify you if you wish to edit your post. While we suggest creating strong passwords and have provided a password strength meter to help, we do not have any specific minimum or maximum limit on password length.
