Legacy Embed Code

Information about the legacy embed code implementation for SEOFlow.

Overview​

The legacy embed code is maintained for backward compatibility with older implementations. While we recommend using the new implementation, this guide covers the legacy approach.

    s[f]=s[f]||function(){
      (s[f].q=s[f].q||[]).push(arguments);
    };
    s[f].l=1*new Date();
    l=h.createElement(o);
    y=h.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];
    l.async=1;
    l.src=p;
