Article SEO

Document360 offers several ways to customize your article metadata to make the most out of SEO.

SEO title

The SEO title is the title that is shown on the search engine results page (SERP).

Adding an SEO title

The SEO title differs from an article title and will appear on a search engine result page, or when the article link is shared on social media or other websites.

This allows you to optimize a title to include more keywords that relate to your product than you would in your knowledge base. Setting the SEO title does not change the title of the article in your knowledge base. By default, SEO title is the article title. However, it can be changed for SEO purposes.

3. Enter the desired SEO title in the Title field

2. Click SEO
3. Enter the article description in the Description field
4. Click Save
