Adding a Page Description
A page description is a piece of text that describes the page's content.
Page descriptions often show in search results and social media posts.
Write a description that would make people want to click on your page.
Tips:
- Should be 155-160 characters
- Try to include several keywords people might use in searches to find your page
- Include a Call to Action (Learn more, sign up, etc.)
- Focus on value. Provide a solution or benefit.
- Use AI to help you write your descriptions
Don't use the same description on multiple pages
Search engines ignore all descriptions that have duplicates
Descriptions are added in the Advanced settings of the General section details page for each section.
