Course SEO

The main purpose of the SEO configuration for your courses is to make the course pages more easily discoverable by search engines and properly index their information. 

For more information about the process, you can check out our relevant guide: How to Configure a course's SEO.

Course Layout page Vs. Course player

The Course layout page is the welcome page of your course where users can find more information about the course, check the contents (according to the contents sections you have added), and enroll. If the course were a book, the layout page would be the book cover. 


The Course player is the classroom where the course takes place. As soon as a user enrolls in the course, the course content (learning activities you have created) appears in the course player.


Once you create the course, add the content, and set up your preferences, you are ready to start selling it. However, what about some more useful tips? Check out the following links:
