Overview
Web page metadata is important for site visibility and search engine optimisation (SEO). Product and category metadata and other details used for SEO are maintained in the CMS.
There are 3 main types of page metadata to consider:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| SEO Url | The user- and search engine-friendly URL for the page. |
| Page Title | The title that displays on search engine results pages, just above the URL. Also displayed in the title bar of the web browser when the user views the page. |
| Meta Description | The blurb that displays under the Title and URL. |
