Frequently Asked Questions
What are meta tags?
Meta tags are HTML elements in a page's head that describe the page to browsers, search engines, and social platforms. They can help software understand a page, though they do not guarantee rankings.
Which meta tags are important for SEO?
A clear title element and meta description are the most useful, along with a canonical link where appropriate and correct robots directives. Content quality still matters most.
What is a canonical URL?
A canonical link tells search engines which URL you consider the primary version of a page. It is a strong hint, not an absolute command, so engines may choose differently.
What are Open Graph tags?
Open Graph tags (og:title, og:description, og:image and others) provide metadata that many platforms use to build link previews when a page is shared.
What is a Twitter card?
Twitter card tags describe how a link should appear when shared, such as summary_large_image. Some other platforms also read these tags.
Does Google always use the meta description?
No. Search engines may rewrite or replace the title and description shown in results based on the query and page content, so treat them as suggestions.
Should every page use index, follow?
Not always. Most public pages use index, follow, but you may use noindex for pages you do not want in search results. Choose based on the page's purpose.
Is the generated code uploaded or stored?
No. The metadata is generated entirely in your browser and is never uploaded to or stored on our servers.
Where should I place these tags?
Add them inside the <head> section of your HTML document, typically near the top before the visible content.
Can social platforms rewrite the preview?
Yes. Previews here are approximate. Platforms may cache, resize, or override images, titles, and descriptions when a link is shared.
