Metadata

Configure default SEO meta tags that appear when your site is shared or found in search results.

Overview

Metadata settings define the default information that appears in search engine results and social media shares. When a page doesn't have its own specific metadata, these defaults are used.

Where to find it

Navigate to Settings → Metadata in your dashboard.

Default Title

The default title appears in browser tabs and search results for pages that don't have a custom title set (like your homepage).

Default Title Field

Set your site's default title

Recommended: 50-60 characters for optimal display.

Image requirements

Use an image that is 1200 × 630 pixels for best results across all platforms. Keep important content in the center as some platforms crop the edges.

How Metadata Works

Understanding the metadata hierarchy helps you optimize each page:

1Page-Specific Metadata

If a post has its own SEO title, description, or image set, those are used first.

2Default Metadata

If page-specific metadata isn't set, the defaults from this settings page are used.

3Auto-Generated

For posts, if no custom description is set, an excerpt from the content is used.

Best practice

Always set custom SEO metadata for your most important posts. Use defaults for less critical pages to save time while maintaining good SEO.
