How To Add and Customize a Table of Contents in Tekmatix Blogs

Creating structured, easy-to-navigate blogs is essential for reader engagement and SEO. Tekmatix now offers a Table of Contents (TOC) feature in the blog editor to help you organize your content effortlessly and guide your readers seamlessly through long-form posts.

Why Is the Table of Contents Important?

The TOC feature not only boosts your blog's readability but also enhances SEO by providing a clear structure and clickable navigation links for search engines to crawl. It ensures your audience can quickly access the sections they care about most, delivering a better user experience.

Step-by-Step Guide to Adding a Table of Contents

   • Go to the Websites & Funnels section in Tekmatix and select Blogs.

   • Select the blog post you want to edit. 

2. Locate the TOC Icon

   • In the blog post editor toolbar, find the Table of Contents (TOC) icon.

   • Click it to access layout options for your TOC.

3. Choose a Layout

   • Select from three available layout options to best match your content style.

   • The TOC will auto-generate based on your blog’s headings (H1, H2, H3, etc.).

4. Customize the TOC Style

   • Use the toolbar to adjust text styles like bold, italic, underline, or strikethrough.

   • Modify the font size to align with your blog's overall theme.

5. Hyperlink Headings

6. Save and Publish

Using the Table of Contents for a Recipe Blog

Imagine you're running a cooking blog and publishing a recipe for "The Perfect Lasagna." Your blog includes sections like:

• Ingredients

• Preparation Steps

• Cooking Instructions

• Storage Tips

With the TOC feature:

• The headings for each section automatically appear in the TOC.

• Readers can click "Cooking Instructions" to jump directly to that section without scrolling through the entire post.

• This makes the recipe easier to follow and encourages readers to stay on the page longer.

Key Benefits of the TOC Feature

• Enhanced Readability

• SEO Improvement

• User-Friendly Navigation

• Professional Aesthetic

Start using the Table of Contents in your Tekmatix blog today and provide your audience with a seamless and engaging reading experience.
