Title tag code
-
Hi,
I have a couple of websites where I can't define the title tag (CMS does not support it) on a few default pages.
On these pages "the system" just uses the primary/main title tag (from the frontpage) and my programming skills (as if I have any...!) have not been able to make a html code or something to override the main title tag on these specific pages.
Does this make sense at all and can anyone give me a hint, a code to try out or something?
Problem is that I now have 3 pages with the same title tag which in terms of SEO isn't too good, so to say...
Thanks in advance.

Well if you think you have the means to undertake such a migration project then why not, would be a fantastic bit of experience and potentially a good earner.. Just be careful because it could be a big risk if you dont have the resource to do it properly.

I guess....no short cuts...some easy title tag html thing?...I am for sure more .com than .net...:)) - no programming skills...stopped learning after programming a calculator in Basic on my C64....that was my masterpiece....(!)
-
Hmmm...you're right - problem is, that I am the client and I'm constantly telling myself to try and find another cms, but with 2 websites with more than 20,000 products etc....its really not just something that can be done easily....

There is usually a way to code around it if you know your SQL and php or .Net, Impossible is never usually in a coders vocabulary...
-
I would say this is an instance where you need to go to the client and tell them there CMS is outdated (and sucks) and they need to progress into the current era of web, [UPSELL ALERT]

It is a forum where Dandomain users can post ideas on what they should work on in the future...
Which is quite a lot...

I guess I need to brush up on my Danish
It came up as something completely different in the English translation.

Hi Brent,
Thanks - it actually says that it is not possible to set individual titles for the 3 pages mentioned...hmm...but great job finding that post.
I guess it is not that difficult for an expert to make some code to implement or is it ? It is possible to implement your own code on these pages directly in the CMS, so... any ideas ,)

Try out Brent's solution in your dashboard and let us know how it goes :).

Translation sucks a bit, but I think it's saying it can be set at the page level in the CMS dashboard.

Hi George,
Thanks for your reply.
It is a local (Danish) web shop solution called "Dandomain", so my guess is that you don't know it
About 50.000 online shops in Denmark use this shop, but not many from other countries.
If you have an idea on what to do i would really appreciate it.
Thanks
Jan

Pages being flagged in Search Console as having a "no-index" tag, do not have a meta robots tag??
Hi, I am running a technical audit on a site which is causing me a few issues. The site is small and awkwardly built using lots of JS, animations and dynamic URL extensions (bit of a nightmare). I can see that it has only 5 pages being indexed in Google despite having over 25 pages submitted to Google via the sitemap in Search Console. The beta Search Console is telling me that there are 23 Urls marked with a 'noindex' tag, however when i go to view the page source and check the code of these pages, there are no meta robots tags at all - I have also checked the robots.txt file. Also, both Screaming Frog and Deep Crawl tools are failing to pick up these urls so i am a bit of a loss about how to find out whats going on. Inevitably i believe the creative agency who built the site had no idea about general website best practice, and that the dynamic url extensions may have something to do with the no-indexing. Any advice on this would be really appreciated. Are there any other ways of no-indexing pages which the dev / creative team might have implemented by accident? - What am i missing here? Thanks,

Why is Google replacing our title tags with URLs in SERP?
Hey guys, We've noticed that Google is replacing a lot of our title tags with URLs in SERP. As far as we know, this has been happening for the last month or so and we can't seem to figure out why. I've attached a screenshot for your reference. What we know: depending on the search query, the title tag may or may not be replaced. this doesn't seem to have any connection to the relevance of the title tag vs the url. results are persistent on desktop and mobile. the length of the title tag doesn't seem to correlate with the replacement. the replacement is happening at mass, to dozens of pages. Any ideas as to why this may be happening? Thanks in advance,

Which is better Title length vs. keywords?
We run a jobboard. The title tag on a page for a job is often over 70 characters. An example of one would be: " Supplier Quality Inspector (Electrical Manufacturing) Job in Orlando, FL 32809 at Pro Image Solutions | Orlando Jobs!" The company name 'Orlando Jobs!" comes at the end but is also a really good keyword e.g. 'Orlando' and 'Jobs' I am interested in suggestions as to how to make these titles better. For example take off the company name when we go over 70 characters? Move the company name to the front of the title because the company name is also good keywords? I am looking for the best way to handle the issue is all. Thanks.

Registered Trademark in a Meta Title or Content
I know that registered trademarks don't hurt SEO, however if the trademark is used in the middle of a popular search phrase (see below) will it hurt the site's chanced of getting ranked for this term. Example: Funkybrand® Shoes PS I found one brand that used the trademark Acuvue® contact lenses. thanks!
