Water
First, be careful never to let water sit in the rosette as it can cause rot or fungal diseases that will kill the plant.

Rather than giving your succulents sips of water here and there, give them a good soaking — to the point the water runs out the drainage holes at the bottom of the pot. Be sure to empty the water that runs into the saucer beneath the plant pot. Then let the soil dry out completely before watering again.

Outdoor plants generally require more water than indoor plants.

During winter, water your succulents when the soil is dry. This could be as infrequently as once per month but will depend on your conditions.
Sunlight
Keep them out of intense sunlight from late morning to mid afternoon.
Fertilizer
Adding a flower plant fertilizer will help extend the blooming and increase its beauty.
