Adding Pages and Metadata
When entering metadata, consider the following:
- Meta keywords are individual keywords or phrases that, when entered into a search engine, retrieve the web page and display it in the available search results.
- Meta descriptions are the 160-character text snippets of information that are meant to provide a quick overview of what the web page is about. Search engines often display this text in search engine results. Social media platforms often display this information when a page link is shared.
Essentially, page visitors search for the page with meta keywords, and they view the meta description in a page's results.
