Lessons

Finding Answers in SEOSpace Documentation

The documentation library is your starting point for most SEO troubleshooting. Here's how to use it effectively:

Step 1: Go to the SEOSpace support page and click on the documentation section.

Step 2: Use the search function to find articles related to your specific issue.

Step 3: Check the article date to ensure you're reading current information.

Step 4: Follow the troubleshooting steps in order, testing your site after each change.

The documentation covers everything from basic metadata setup to advanced technical SEO fixes. Most common problems have step-by-step guides with screenshots.

Getting Quick Help Through Chat Support

Chat support works best for immediate questions and simple troubleshooting. Here's how to make the most of it:

Step 1: Check if chat support is currently available on the SEOSpace support page.

Step 2: Prepare your question beforehand. Include your site URL and a clear description of the problem.

Step 3: Have your browser open to the problem page so you can share details quickly.

Step 4: Take notes during the chat session for future reference.

Chat support typically handles questions about tool features, basic setup issues, and clarification of documentation.

Pixelhaze Tip: Take screenshots of any error messages before starting the chat. This helps the support team understand your issue faster.

Using Ticket Support for Complex Issues

Some SEO problems need detailed investigation. Ticket support is designed for these situations:

Step 1: Go to the SEOSpace support area and select 'Submit a Ticket'.

Step 2: Choose the most relevant category for your problem.

Step 3: Write a detailed description including:

  • What you were trying to do
  • What happened instead
  • Steps you've already tried
  • Your site URL and affected pages

Step 4: Attach screenshots or screen recordings if they help explain the issue.

Step 5: Check your email regularly for updates and respond promptly to any questions.

Ticket support handles technical problems, site audits, and issues that require backend investigation.

Pixelhaze Tip: Keep your ticket updated if you discover new information or if the problem changes while waiting for a response.
