Walkthrough Guide

A walkthrough is a meticulous way of onboarding users. It ensures that no stone is left unturned and gives new users a great understanding of how the product works.

But not all walkthroughs are made equal.

A walkthrough, if done the wrong way, can have too much emphasis on hand-holding and not enough focus on engagement. This could frustrate new users and actually send them packing before they’ve even finished onboarding.

Questions

What an amazing walkthrough has?
An amazing walkthrough is: 

Clear – telling users exactly how each feature works

Concise – covering all bases without dragging on

Engaging – giving users the option to interact rather than just watch

Skippable – to accommodate faster learners

Offers additional support – a speak-to-a-coach feature in our case, for example, for users that are struggling to follow

Web Property

A web property is a point of presence on the web that is an asset of a corporation used for the purpose of representing a brand, person, or another identity.
The property can be considered a communication channel for the entity whose identity is associated with it. Points of presence on the web which contain content about an entity may not be an owned property but an earned one (e.g. restaurant review pages on sites such as Yelp).

Questions

What is a web property?
A web property is a point of presence on the web that is an asset of a corporation used for the purpose of representing a brand, person, or another identity.

The property can be considered a communication channel for the entity whose identity is associated with it. Points of presence on the web which contain content about an entity may not be an owned property but an earned one (e.g. restaurant review pages on sites such as Yelp).
What are the types of Web properties?
* Full-blown websites, 

* Landing Pages, 

* Power Pages, 

* Engineering-as-marketing

* Pages or apps (Calculators, quizzes, etc)

* Mobile apps

* BOTs

* Pre-launch Pages and 

* Other specialized-purpose pages.
Why do you need more than one web property?

Google said they generally won't show more than two results from the same domain in the top Google search results. Google may still show more than two results if they determine a searcher would benefit from it and it is relevant for the query. That means that if you have only one property you limit yourself to occupying only 2 out of the 10 available positions on the 1rst page of Google.

Webhook

A webhook is like a notification system that automatically sends information from one app to another when something specific happens.
Instead of checking for updates yourself, a webhook instantly delivers the data as soon as the event occurs. It helps apps stay connected and work together in real time.

Questions

A webhook is like a notification system that automatically sends information from one app to another when something specific happens.

Instead of checking for updates yourself, a webhook instantly delivers the data as soon as the event occurs. It helps apps stay connected and work together in real time.
How a webhook looks like?
A webhook is essentially a URL (web address) provided by one app, where another app sends information when an event happens.

Here’s an example of what a webhook URL might look like:

https://example.com/webhooks/order-updated

When an event (like "order updated") happens, the app sends a POST request to this URL with data about the event in a format like JSON or XML. Here's an example of the data sent in JSON:

{ "order_id": "12345", "status": "shipped", "customer_email": "customer@example.com" }

This lets the receiving app process the information immediately.
