Metadata tells AI which version of a page to trust and how to represent it. Clean canonical tags, titles, meta descriptions, and Open Graph are quick wins that improve how engines index and cite you.
Steps
- Set one clear canonical URL per page so engines do not split signals across duplicates.
- Write a specific title under ~60 characters that states what the page is.
- Add a meta description of roughly 70–155 characters that summarizes the page.
- Add Open Graph tags (title, description, image) for clean previews when your link is shared or cited.
- Make these consistent across any duplicate or paginated versions.
- Validate with a rich-results or social-preview checker.
Why it matters
When metadata is missing or conflicting, AI engines guess — and often guess wrong, or skip you. Clean tags remove that ambiguity and make your pages safe to quote.
