A Simple Guide for Small Businesses, Non-Profits & Rural Organizations
If you're building your website in WIX (or already have one), you're in a great spot. WIX gives you all the tools you need to boost your SEO, even if you’re not a tech wizard. One of the easiest ways to get started? Adding custom title tags and meta descriptions to your pages.
This quick tutorial will walk you through:
What title tags and meta descriptions are
Why they’re important for SEO
How to write them
Exactly where to add them in WIX
What Are Title Tags & Meta Descriptions?
Title Tag:
The title tag is a clickable headline that shows up in Google search results and at the top of a browser tab.
Example from Digital Success Training:

Meta Description:
A meta description is a short summary about the webpage that appears under your title tag in search results. It helps people decide if they want to click through to your website.
Example from Digital Success Training:
Affordable, professional WIX websites designed for small businesses, non-profits, and rural communities. Reach the right people online and take your next digital step with confidence.
Why Do Title Tags & Meta Descriptions Matter on a website?
Adding title tags and meta descriptions in WIX helps:
Boost your visibility in Google search results
Tell search engines what your page is about
Encourage more people to click on your listing
It’s one of the easiest (and most effective) ways to improve your SEO without being overwhelmed or needing to hire a website developer.
Your homepage isn’t the only place that needs strong SEO! Every key page on your site—like About, Services, Add-Ons, Contact, Blog, or Portfolio—should have its own custom title tag and meta description.
Tips for Writing Title Tags:
Formula: Business Name | What the Page Is About | Location (if relevant)
Length: Keep it under 60 characters
Content: Include your main keyword (what you want people to find you for)
Tip: Make it specific and easy to understand
