Frequently Asked Questions

What are meta tags?

Meta tags are HTML elements placed inside the <head> section of a webpage. They provide metadata about the page to search engines, social networks, and browsers. The most important are <title>, meta description, robots, canonical, og:title, and og:description.

How long should my meta title be?

Google typically displays 50–60 characters of the title before truncating. Aim for under 60 characters. Titles shorter than 30 characters may be expanded by Google using other on-page text.

How long should my meta description be?

Google shows approximately 155–160 characters of the meta description in search results. Write a concise, compelling summary under 160 characters. Google may rewrite the description if it does not match the page content.

What are Open Graph (og:) tags?

Open Graph tags (og:title, og:description, og:image, og:url) control how your page appears when shared on Facebook, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, and other platforms. Without them, social networks pick content arbitrarily.

What is a canonical URL?

A canonical URL tells search engines which version of a page is the "preferred" one when the same content is accessible at multiple URLs. This prevents duplicate content issues and consolidates ranking signals.

What is the robots meta tag?

"index, follow" tells search engines to index the page and follow its links. "noindex" excludes the page from search results. "nofollow" stops link equity from passing. Use noindex for thank-you pages, login pages, and internal search results.

What is the difference between Twitter card types?

"summary" shows a small thumbnail with title and description. "summary_large_image" shows a large image above the text — recommended for article pages. "app" is for app store links. "player" is for embedded video/audio.

Do meta keywords still matter for SEO?

No. Google has ignored the meta keywords tag since 2009. Bing also gives it little weight. Focus your SEO effort on the title, description, and page content instead. Meta keywords are included in this generator for legacy/niche search engines that may still read them.
