Frequently Asked Questions
What are meta tags?
Meta tags are small pieces of HTML in the head of a page. They tell search engines and browsers what the page is about. The title and description are the most important.
Do meta tags improve rankings?
The title tag is a ranking signal. The description is not a direct ranking factor, but a good one can bring more clicks from search results.
Why does Google show a different title or description?
Google may rewrite them to match what the visitor searched for. Clear, accurate tags make this less likely.
Is the meta keywords tag needed?
No. Google has ignored it for many years.
Why can the analyzer not open my page?
The page must be public. Some sites block automated visits.
Are the pixel lengths exact?
They are close estimates. Google measures in pixels, so wide letters use more space than narrow ones.
