One of the great features of the Little Forest platform is that you can import to your Domain Registry. This means any existing data or spreadsheets you have can be merged without having to manually input.
All you need to do is provide us with a spreadsheet with the data and then we can upload this for you.
Here are some tips for clear data importing:
1. Domains vs Subdomains Upload
We can only upload per view type; Top Level Domains or Specific Domain Subdomain lists.
So if your list mixes top level domains and different subdomains we ask you to split these into tabs, so we can upload to the correct list.
Top Level Domains List:
Specific Domain Subdomains: littleforest.co.uk
2. Remove Protocols
We use the domain only e.g. littleforest.co.uk
If you try and import with the protocols e.g. https://littleforest.co.uk
You will then get duplicates, so it is best to remove these.
3. Remove End Backslash
If there is an extra slash / at the end of a domain e.g. littleforest.co.uk/
This will then also create a duplicate if littleforest.co.uk already exists.
4. Automated Data Columns / Unique Column Names
We can’t import data to columns which use automated data from the crawler.
If you would like to add data which is already created by LF please can you give the column a different name. Examples:
LF Automated: Page Title
Import : Manual Page Title
LF Automated: Site Owner
Import : LF Site Owner
5. Creating an Import View
To be able to create a unique view with just the domains with imported data, please add a column at the end with a tag for all domains you want included in the view.
This can be anything that makes sense to you but here are some examples:
Import Date
or
Import Name
Please note – if you have the same domain listed more than once – we will upload only one.
If you upload data to a cell already containing other data it will also update to the latest data on the import.
