Page Title (Title)It is a concise summary of your page content, which is usually displayed at the top of the browser tab, favorites, and search engine results pages.It is one of the most critical signals for search engines to determine the theme of a page, and it is also the primary basis for users to decide whether to click and enter the page.A good title must not only contain core keywords, but also be sufficiently attractive and accurately reflect the content of the page.
Page Description (Meta Description)This is a further summary of the page content, which is usually displayed below the search results title.Although the description itself is not a ranking factor, it has a direct impact on the click-through rate (CTR).A well-written description can stimulate the interest of users, making them feel that your page is exactly what they are looking for, thereby increasing the click-through rate.

- Write an eye-catching copy:The title should be concise and powerful, the description should be persuasive. Try to add questions, numbers, emotional words, or unique selling points to stimulate the desire to click.
- Maintain uniqueness:Make sure each page of your website has a unique title and description. Duplicate TDK will lower the search engine's evaluation of your website.
- Pay attention to the character limit:The search engine has a limit on the display length of titles and descriptions (for example, titles are usually 50-60 characters, and descriptions are 120-150 characters), and any part exceeding this may be truncated.When writing, try to place the most important information at the beginning.
- Use the canonical URL (Canonical URL):AnQiCMS allows you to set standard links while editing documents.When your website has pages with identical or similar content (for example, the same product with multiple URLs), setting up canonical links can tell search engines which is the 'original' page, to avoid duplicate content issues.In the template, you can use
{% tdk with name="CanonicalUrl" %}Tag to call, but be sure to use it only after confirming the existence of the canonical URL. - Make good use of the preview tool:Although the AnQiCMS backend provides TDK settings, you can use SERP preview tools (such as Google Search Console or third-party SEO tools) to view the actual display effect of your title and description in search results so that you can adjust them in time.
