  • Introducing Matomo SEO Web Vitals

    13 septembre 2021, par Ben Erskine — About, Analytics Tips, Plugins

    SEO Web Vitals track your critical website performance metrics and are a core element of SEO best practice. 

    Start using Matomo SEO Web Vitals to monitor your website performance, optimise your visitor experience, improve your search result rankings, and see how your site compares to your competitors.

    SEO Web Vitals

    What are SEO Web Vitals ?

    Web Vitals are made up of a number of important metrics, such as your website’s page speed and loading performance, these metrics all play an important role in search engine optimisation. 

    The more technical terms for these metrics are Page Speed Score, First Contentful Paint (FCP), Final Input Delay (FID), Last Contentful Paint (LCP) and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS).

    Why should you use SEO Web Vitals ?

    SEO Web Vitals are being used more and more by search engines such as Google to rank websites so they help ensure a great page experience for users who arrive via links from their search results. 

    By monitoring your SEO Web Vitals you can see how good or bad a single page performs and then prioritise the optimisation of strategically important pages to help improve the ranking position within search engine results.

    For ease of use you can receive regular reports in your email inbox and you can configure custom alerts to automatically notify you when a page score changes significantly. This saves time by not having to check page performance scores manually while ensuring you will be notified should there be any important change that needs to be actioned.

    You should use SEO Web Vitals to understand how your site performance is impacting your overall visitor experience.

    Four key benefits of using SEO Web Vitals :

    Improve your search result rankings

    • SEO Web Vitals are a core element of SEO best practice and directly impact your search rankings.
    • Pages that load quickly and are more stable deliver a better user experience, so they’re ranked higher by search engines.

    Optimise your website visitor experience

    • Know how quickly pages on your website load to ensure you deliver an optimal visitor experience.
    • Identify page stability issues and implement the changes needed to enhance your visitor experience.

    Automate your website performance monitoring

    • Have peace of mind knowing if your metrics decrease, you can find and fix the root cause quickly.
    • Configure performance alerts and get automated reports sent to you.

    Incorporate website performance into your competitor analysis

    • These performance metrics are essentially open for anyone to inspect, so you can measure and benchmark your site against competitors. 

    How can I improve my SEO Web Vitals ?

    There are so many ways to improve these performance metrics, here are five of the common contributing factors.

    1. Your page speed score is a weighted average of your other performance metrics, so focus on improving the underlying metrics that contribute to this score.
    2. Ensure you use a high quality web host with an appropriate plan for your level of traffic to help improve your FCP time.
    3. Try removing large elements that aren’t required on your page to improve your LCP time.
    4. Optimise against Total Blocking Time to Improve your FID score.
    5. Consider using a Layout Shift Debugger to improve Your CLS Score

    Matomo SEO Web Vitals FAQs

  • How do I get videos to upload using carrierwave-video ?

    10 juillet 2016, par Eric

    I tried to follow the instructions on github to upload using carrierwave-video, but get an error that says the file or directory mmpeg -i doesn’t exist.

    The upload path for images is correct, just not the video one.

    I added all of the following code necessary to help solve the error and minified as much as I possibly could.

    This is the video uploader code using carrierwave :

    class VideoUploader < CarrierWave::Uploader::Base

     include CarrierWave::Video
     storage :file

     version :mp4 do
       process :encode_video => [:mp4, resolution: "100x100"]
     end

     def store_dir
       "uploads/#{model.class.to_s.underscore}/#{mounted_as}/#{model.id}"
     end
    end

    This is the movie controller code that handles uploading of videos :

    class MoviesController < ApplicationController
      include MoviesHelper

      def index
         mode "index"
      end

      def show
         mode "show"
      end

      def new
         mode "new"
      end

      def edit
         mode "edit"
      end

      def create
         mode "create"
      end

      def update
         mode "update"
      end

      def destroy
         mode "destroy"
      end

      def review
         mode "review"
      end

      def approve
         mode "approve"
      end

      def deny
         mode "deny"
      end
    end

    This is the model data for the movie that goes with it :

    class Movie < ActiveRecord::Base
     attr_accessible :created_on, :description, :maintenance, :reviewed, :subplaylist_id, :title, :user_id, :video, :remote_video_url
     belongs_to :user
     belongs_to :subplaylist
     mount_uploader :video, VideoUploader
    end

    This is where the movie is supposed to be displayed but it is not working :

    <% provide(:title, "Movie: Where movies are made!") %>
    <% provide(:keywords, "movies, video") %>
    <% provide(:description, "This is the place where users showcase their wonderful video talent.") %>
    <p>&lt;%= notice %></p>
    <h1 class="pageheader">&lt;%= @movie.title %></h1>
    <br />
    <p class="pagetext">&lt;%= video_tag(@movie.video_url.to_s, controls: true, class: "imagebox") %></p>
    <p class="pagetext">&lt;%= @movie.description %></p>
    <p class="pagetext">Created on: &lt;%= @movie.created_on.strftime("%B-%d-%Y") %></p>
    <p class="pagetext">Owner: &lt;%= getType(@movie.user) %>&lt;%= link_to @movie.user.vname, user_path(@movie.user) %></p>
    <br />
    <p class="pagetext">&lt;%= link_to 'Back', mainplaylist_subplaylist_path(@subplaylist.mainplaylist, @movie.subplaylist) %></p>

    This is where the movie new action is :

    &lt;% provide(:title, "Movie: Create new movies here!") %>
    &lt;% provide(:description, "New movies are uploaded only to the site when the movie gets approved.") %>
    <h1 class="pagetextheader">New movie</h1>
    &lt;%= render 'form' %>
    <p class="pagetext">&lt;%= link_to 'Back', mainplaylist_subplaylist_path(@subplaylist.mainplaylist, @subplaylist) %></p>

    This is where the movies forum parameters are :

    &lt;%= form_for([@subplaylist, @movie], :html=>{:multipart => true}) do |f| %>
     &lt;% if @movie.errors.any? %>
       <div>
         <h2>&lt;%= pluralize(@movie.errors.count, "error") %> prohibited this movie from being saved:</h2>

         <ul>
         &lt;% @movie.errors.full_messages.each do |msg| %>
           <li>&lt;%= msg %></li>
         &lt;% end %>
         </ul>
       </div>
     &lt;% end %>
     <br />
     <div class="pagetext">
       &lt;%= f.label :title %><br />
       &lt;%= f.text_field :title %>
     </div>
     <div class="pagetext">
       &lt;%= f.file_field :video %>
     </div>
     <div class="pagetext">
       &lt;%= f.label :remote_video_url, "or video URL" %><br />
       &lt;%= f.text_field :remote_video_url %>
     </div>
     <div class="pagetext">
       &lt;%= f.label :description %><br />
       &lt;%= f.text_area :description %>
     </div>
     <div class="pagetext">
       &lt;%= f.submit %>
     </div>
     <br />
    &lt;% end %>

    This is the movies helper code :

    module MoviesHelper

      def mode(type)
         code = auto_logout
         if(code == true)
            sign_out

  • The First Problem

    19 janvier 2011, par Multimedia Mike — HTML5

    A few years ago, The Linux Hater made the following poignant observation regarding Linux driver support :

    Drivers are only just the beginning... But for some reason y’all like to focus on the drivers. You know why lusers do that ? Because it just happens to be the problem that people notice first.

    And so it is with the HTML5 video codec debate, re-invigorated in the past week by Google’s announcement of dropping native H.264 support in their own HTML5 video tag implementation. As I read up on the fiery debate, I kept wondering why people are so obsessed with this issue. Then I remembered the Linux Hater’s post and realized that the video codec issue is simply the first problem that most people notice regarding HTML5 video.

    I appreciate that the video codec debate has prompted Niedermayer to post on his blog once more. Otherwise, I’m just munching popcorn on the sidelines, amused and mildly relieved that the various factions are vociferously attacking each other rather than that little project I help with at work.

    Getting back to the "first problem" aspect— there’s so much emphasis on the video codec ; I wonder why no one ever, ever mentions word one about an audio codec. AAC is typically the codec that pairs with H.264 in the MPEG stack. Dark Shikari once mentioned that "AAC’s licensing terms are exponentially more onerous than H.264′s. If Google didn’t want to use H.264, they would sure as hell not want to use AAC." Most people are probably using "H.264" to refer to the entire MPEG/H.264/AAC stack, even if they probably don’t understand what all of those pieces mean.

    Anyway, The Linux Hater’s driver piece continues :

    Once y’all have drivers, the fight will move to the next layer up. And like I said, it’s a lot harder at that layer.

    A few months ago, when I wanted to post the WebM output of my new VP8 encoder and thought it would be a nice touch to deliver it via a video tag, I ignored the video codec problem (just encoded a VP8/WebM file) only to immediately discover a problem at a different layer— specifically, embedding a file using a video tag triggers a full file download when the page is loaded, which is unacceptable from end user and web hosting perspectives. This is a known issue but doesn’t get as much attention, I guess because there are bigger problems to solve first (c.f. video codec issue).

    For other issues, check out the YouTube blog’s HTML5 post or Hulu’s post that also commented on HTML5. Issues such as video streaming flexibility, content protection, fullscreen video, webcam/microphone input, and numerous others are rarely mentioned in the debates. Only "video codec" is of paramount importance.

    But I’m lending too much weight to the cacophony of a largely uninformed internet debate. Realistically, I know there are many talented engineers down in the trenches working to solve at least some of these problems. To tie this in with the Linux driver example, I’m consistently stunned these days regarding how simple it is to get Linux working on a new computer— most commodity consumer hardware really does just work right out of the box. Maybe one day, we’ll wake up and find that HTML5 video has advanced to the point that it solves all of the relevant problems to make it the simple and obvious choice for delivering web video in nearly all situations.

    It won’t be this year.
