-- Title
The title tag is the string of text that appears in the page tab and the overview for the page within search engine results. To learn more about title tags: https://moz.com/learn/seo/title-tag
-- Meta Description
The meta description appears below the title tag in search engine result pages. It is used to briefly describe what the page is about. Be sure that the description is relative to the page content and unique. You will be penalized by search engine crawlers for duplicate meta descriptions. https://moz.com/learn/seo/meta-description
-- Meta Keywords
There is some debate as to whether the meta keywords are useful for SEO. In 2009 Google announced it would no longer use meta keywords as a ranking factor. Some smaller search engines like Bing do still consider these when indexing.
Layout Related
-- Template
You can set specific templates to pages within the site. Depending on how your site is set up, you will have templates that pull different elements onto the page. For instance, one template may pull in a specific call to action while another may pull in a sign-up form. If unsure of how your templates are set up you can create a test page to test out what elements are within your templates.
-- Masthead
You can select which masthead image you would like to appear on specific pages. You will want to be mindful of other areas that allow you to set masthead images such as the Maintain Mastheads section in System Settings and the Page Editor module.
Include Code
Include code allows you to inject code either in the <head> of the page or just before the closing </body> tag. If you are unsure about the code you are adding to the site please feel free to reach out to our support team!
