Test your page title and meta description

What is the HTML title element for?

The <title> element in HTML is displayed in the browser's title bar or tab and is used by search engines to display a page's title in search results. It's very important for search engine optimisation (SEO) too.

The content of the <title> element should be a brief and descriptive summary of the webpage's content and should really include your page's main keyword. It is essential to use a title that is relevant to the content of the page, as it will help search engines understand the relevance of the page to a given search query. Additionally, it's the first thing that people will see when the page is shared on social media, bookmarked or in the search results.

What is a meta description and how do I write one?

The meta description is an HTML tag that gives a short summary of what's on a webpage. It usually shows up in search engine results below the webpage's title and URL. The text in the meta description should be a short, accurate, and interesting summary of the page's content. It should be written in a way that makes people want to click on the webpage.

The length of a meta description should be around 150-160 characters. It's good to include keywords and phrases that are related to the content of the page and that people are likely to search for, but make sure it reads naturally and not stuffed with keywords. Also, try to avoid using the same or similar descriptions across multiple pages of your website, as this can be seen as spammy by search engines and hurt your search rankings.
