Search, analytics and security settings

Open Settings in the editor to find the tabs for your published site. Changes go live the next time you publish, and the Publish panel shows Changes not published until you do.

Search and sharing

The Search & sharing tab controls how your site shows up in Google and when someone shares a link.

• Link preview. The card people see in WhatsApp, Slack, X and search results. Without your own share image, BYQ uses a screenshot of each page.
• Per-page titles and descriptions. Titles can be up to 70 characters (a warning appears over 60) and descriptions up to 200 (a warning over 160). Each page can also have its own share image.
• Show in search results. Turn it off and search engines are asked not to list any page. On, your site is indexed at its address with a sitemap of every page. You can also hide a single page from search in the Pages panel.
• Language for your site.
• Google Search Console. Paste the HTML tag token to verify the site.

For a quick improvement, use the one-click Improve the SEO of prompt for a page and the agent writes better titles and descriptions.

Favicon

The icon you upload in Settings is used first. Without one, the site's own icon is used, then BYQ's. Your logo is placed in the navbar and footer and also used as the favicon if you have not set one.

Analytics

The Analytics tab shows who visits your published site. It uses no cookies, so no cookie banner is needed for it. A visitor is counted from a daily-changing anonymous code, not a personal profile, bots are filtered out, and it records page, referrer, country, device and browser.

• Publish your site to start counting.
• The toggle turns counting on or off. Turning it off stops counting at once, and turning it back on takes effect when you update the site.

Prefer Google Analytics, Plausible or another tool? Add it in Integrations (see Forms and integrations).

404 and redirects

In 404 & redirects, choose whether missing pages show a 404 page or send visitors home, and add redirects from an old address to a new page. Changing a page's address in the Pages panel adds a permanent redirect for you.

Custom code

The Custom code tab adds code to every page: a head box for tags like Google Analytics or verification, and a body box for chat widgets and embeds. Each holds up to 20,000 characters and saves when you click away.

Security

Every published site gets these protections. The Security tab shows the result of the last check.

• Secret key scan. Every publish is checked for API keys and private keys. A site that would expose one is not published, and the agent can remove it.
• Secure headers, always on: HTTPS only, no content sniffing, private referrers, and camera, mic and location off.
• Allow embedding. Off by default, so other sites cannot show yours in a frame. Turn it on only if you need to embed your site.
• Insecure links. The tab lists anything that loads over http://.

The check cannot catch every possible risk, so keep real secrets out of your site.
