Meta tags are used to help search engines to index your site. The following tutorial will show you how to set up meta titles, descriptions and keywords on your Prestashop site.<\/p>\r\n

PrestaShop 1.6.x. How to edit site meta tags<\/a><\/p>\r\n

Meta title<\/strong> is the title of a certain web page. It appears in the page browser tab. The meta title should be unique for each page, and less than 70 characters in length.<\/p>\r\n

Meta description<\/strong> is a brief overview of the page used for search results listings. The meta description should contain less than 160 characters in length.<\/p>\r\n

Meta keywords<\/strong> are no longer used by most search engines. PrestaShop took them off from some pages. Meta keywords don’t have any effect on ranking in the major search engines today.<\/p>\r\n
