What it checks
The extension reads the page’s <head> in your browser and looks for four
things:
- a non-empty
<title> - a non-empty
<meta name="description"> - a
<link rel="canonical"> - an Open Graph title or description (
og:titleorog:description)
A missing title or description is treated as more serious than a missing canonical or Open Graph tag, because those two are what an agent uses to decide what the page is before reading it.
Results
| Status | When |
|---|---|
| Pass | All four are present |
| Warn | The title and description are present, but the canonical or Open Graph metadata is missing |
| Fail | The title or the meta description is missing |
| Unmeasured | The extension could not read the page (open it in the active tab) |
The result names exactly which items are missing.
How to fix
Add whichever items the result lists to the page’s <head>:
<head>
<title>Blue running shoes | Example Store</title>
<meta name="description" content="Lightweight blue running shoes for road and trail." />
<link rel="canonical" href="https://example.com/shoes/blue-runner" />
<meta property="og:title" content="Blue running shoes" />
<meta property="og:description" content="Lightweight blue running shoes for road and trail." />
</head>
Point the canonical at the preferred URL for the content, so an agent that reaches the same page through several URLs can tell they are one page.
Support by agent and browser
Announced means the vendor’s own docs or announcement say so. Published is the date on the vendor’s own page, where it has one. Checked is the last time our weekly research found that page still saying so.
