Meta Description

(click on Edit Snippet, shown in green box above)

A meta description generally informs and interests users with a short, relevant summary of what a particular page is about. They are like a pitch that convince the user that the page is exactly what they're looking for.

** Include the product name and focus keyword in your Meta Description.

Recommended length: Keep the Meta Description to approximately 120 characters for best results, no more than 155 characters.

Focus Keyword

The focus keyword is simply the search term you want your post or page to be ranked for in the search engines. So when the audience looks out for that specific phrase or keyword in the search engines, they should probably locate you.

Product Names

Product names are important when it comes to SEO. A product title announces to shoppers, and search engines, exactly what you are selling. Include your product keyword in your product title.

e.g. Instead of "The Sofia", have "The Sofia - handmade ceramic vase"

Attract the customers attention and let them know what you are selling. Remember google does not see images to rank your page, they only see words.

**Recommended length: Keep the product title length to approximately 50-70 characters. This is what is visible when scrolling through products on desktop and mobile.
