Componentization – Forms
Path: CMS > Select Profile > Components
To enhance the user experience and support our componentization initiative, we have introduced the capability to use form components directly within Page Studio. This new feature provides users with a more streamlined and self-service experience, enabling them to efficiently add and manage forms as part of their page design process. The addition of form components is aimed at empowering users to have greater control and flexibility in creating dynamic and interactive web pages in Page Studio.
Forms that can be used on a page will be available under the ‘Add-on Components’ section in the Component Library.
Form Configuration
Once you have selected a form you can change the configuration of the form. The form configuration can be updated using the settings icon to the top of a form component on the page.
The configuration section allows you to update the form name, the description, enable or disable spam filters, send form data via secure PDFs, authenticate forms, and allow selected third parties to view form data.
The submissions section lets you configure the email addresses to which the form submissions will be communicated and compose and send replies to form submissions.
The Referenced In section lets you view which pages reference the same form on your website.
You can also view form properties like who created the form, the date it was created on, who made the last modifications to the form, and when was it last modified.
In conclusion, the introduction of form components within Page Studio marks a significant step forward in our commitment to enhancing user experience and advancing our componentization strategy. This new capability not only simplifies the process of designing and managing forms but also provides users with the tools they need to create more dynamic and engaging web pages. By empowering users with greater control and flexibility, we aim to foster creativity, efficiency, and productivity, setting a new standard for web page design and management in Page Studio.

Keyword Ranking Report
Path: Milestone Insights > Content & Relevancy > Keywords & SERPs
We're excited to announce a major revamp of our Keyword Ranking Report dashboard! While the current version is functional, it lacks essential key performance indicators (KPIs) and detailed visualizations that help users make quick, informed decisions. To address this, we're redesigning the dashboard to enhance usability, incorporate actionable insights, and increase engagement and adoption. Taking valuable input from clients like Neighborly, our goal is to create a more intuitive, competitive dashboard that delivers a superior user experience and stands out in the market. Stay tuned for these improvements, which will help you derive insights faster and more efficiently.
The Keyword Ranking section displays the performance of your business for keywords that you have chosen to rank for.
The Keywords and SERPs section of Milestone Insights displays your business profiles and three Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) in regard to keyword ranking and Search Engine Result Pages (SERPs);
-
Average Search Volume: Average Search Volume for a Website refers to the average number of searches per month for a set of keywords that are relevant to the website’s content, products, or services. This metric indicates how often users search for terms related to the website in search engines over a given period, usually measured on a monthly basis. Understanding the average search volume helps website owners and marketers identify high-demand keywords, optimize content, and develop strategies to improve search engine visibility. A higher average search volume for targeted keywords typically suggests greater potential to attract traffic to the website through search engine optimization (SEO).
-
Average Rank: Average Rank refers to the mean position of a website’s pages in search engine results for a set of targeted keywords over a specific period. It is calculated by taking the ranking positions of a website across multiple search queries or keywords and finding the average of those positions. This metric helps measure the overall visibility and performance of a website in search engine results pages (SERPs). A lower average rank number indicates better performance, as it reflects that the website consistently appears higher in search results, which can lead to increased traffic and user engagement.
-
Monthly Traffic: Monthly Traffic for a Website refers to the total number of visits or sessions a website receives over a one-month period. This metric encompasses all visits from all sources, including organic search, direct traffic, referrals, social media, and paid advertising. Monthly traffic is a key performance indicator (KPI) for understanding a website's visibility, reach, and overall online presence. It provides insights into user interest, content effectiveness, and marketing performance, helping website owners and marketers gauge the success of their strategies and identify opportunities for growth or improvement.
