Frequently Asked Questions
What are meta tags and why are they important?
Meta tags are snippets of HTML code that provide information about your webpage to search engines and website visitors. They don’t appear on the page itself but are present in the page’s code. Meta tags are important because they help search engines understand your content and can influence how your pages appear in search results. They also control how your content appears when shared on social media platforms.
How do I add the generated meta tags to my WordPress site?
Once you’ve generated your meta tags using our Meta Tag Generator, you have several options for adding them to your WordPress site:
- Classic Editor (Text mode): Simply paste the generated code at the beginning of your page or post in the Text editor mode.
- Theme Header: Add the code (minus the WordPress comment tags) to your theme’s header.php file.
- SEO Plugin: If you’re using an SEO plugin like Yoast SEO or All in One SEO Pack, you can enter the individual meta tag values in the plugin’s interface instead of using the generated HTML.
What’s the difference between regular meta tags and Open Graph tags?
Regular meta tags (like title, description, and keywords) are primarily used by search engines to understand and index your content. Open Graph tags, on the other hand, were developed by Facebook and are used by social media platforms to control how your content appears when shared. While regular meta tags help with SEO, Open Graph tags enhance the social media sharing experience by defining specific images, titles, and descriptions for social platforms.
How long should my meta description be?
For optimal display in search results, meta descriptions should be between 150-155 characters. Google typically truncates descriptions longer than this, so keeping within this limit ensures your full message is visible in search results. However, the meta description should be compelling and accurately summarize your content, even if it means using slightly fewer characters.
Are meta keywords still important for SEO?
Most major search engines, including Google, no longer use the meta keywords tag as a ranking factor due to widespread abuse and keyword stuffing. However, some smaller search engines might still consider them, and they can be useful for internal site search functionality. While not critical for SEO, including relevant keywords won’t hurt and might provide minor benefits in certain contexts.
What are Twitter Cards and why should I use them?
Twitter Cards are a type of meta tag specifically for Twitter that allow you to attach rich media experiences to tweets that link to your content. When users share your content on Twitter, Twitter Cards make your tweets more engaging by displaying a preview with images, title, and description instead of just a plain link. Using Twitter Cards can increase engagement, drive traffic, and improve the visibility of your content on Twitter.
