Background: what to know before you rely on it
The title tag is one of the strongest on page signals and often becomes the blue link in search results. The meta description is not a direct ranking factor but affects click rate. Google may rewrite either if it believes another snippet better matches a query. Open Graph tags, created by Facebook, are read by many platforms to build link previews, and Twitter card tags do the same for X. The canonical tag tells search engines which URL to treat as the main version when similar pages exist. Each page needs its own unique title and description. Duplicate tags across a site are a common cause of weak search snippets.
