Server Side Includes
What are Server Side Includes? How could you boost your rankings using SSI?
Server Side Includes (SSI) is a well-known server-side scripting language, used to add the content of one file within another file. It's utilized primarily with online content and it will help to make a static HTML website much more dynamic. If you need to have a daily quote displayed on a number of webpages within your website, as an example, you can make a text file and replace the quote in it every single day. All webpages where this file is integrated will display the updated quote, so you will not need to update them manually every single time. SSI could also be used to include the output of simple functions instead of a static file - for instance, the client's IP address, a hit counter or the current date and time. This way, you may make your site seem much more professional and much more appealing to the website visitors. Pages that implement SSI use a .shtml extension.
