How do i get to the top of Google?
Maakum websites are optimized for search engines, that is a fact. The problem is that everyone wants his website at the top of the search engines!
Here are some tips to help you to get found:
- Make sure the title of the website makes sense.
- Write your text for people, not for search engines, but make sure you mention your keywords in your text.
- Try to make a page contain one subject.
- Make sure the titles of the sections contain important keywords.
- Register the site at as many search engines as you can.
- Try to get links to your site on other relevant sites. Relevance is the keyword here!
- Use Webmaster Tools
- Use the FURLS module (friendly urls)
More information about search engines and tools to register your site you can find on Google on "search engine optimization" or "SEO".

How does the document upload module work?

At the bottom of the text block a link will automatically appear to your uploaded file.
What is the mediatheek?
The Mediatheek library is a directory structure in which you can place your documents. Just like on your computer, but then on the internet. You can also make it accessible for visitors, with or without a password.
What is the difference between the simple- and extended members module?
In the simple members login module, there is only one password for all members. So this is a very simple way to give access to your famlie for instance to certain private pages or photos.
With the Extended Members login module everybody has his own password and login name (email address). In addition, you can require your members to fill in certain additional information, such as addresses and perhaps interests.
You can also set whether you want to receive an email when a new member has registered and set if new registered members automatically have access to the protected part of your website or not. Further, the registered members can unsubscribe, of course, automatically.
