Settings

Getting Started with Default Settings

For beginners, we recommend starting with the 'Static' mode, which uses default settings optimized for general use. These default settings provide an excellent foundation for understanding the tool's functionality. Once comfortable with these settings, you can experiment with different configurations to best match your website's needs.

Steps to Access Default Settings

  1. Log in to NytroSEO: Access the Meta-Tag Generator through your NytroSEO account dashboard.

  2. Navigate to Meta-Tag Settings: Select the website you want to configure and click on ‘Manage Meta Data’ in the left-hand menu.

  3. Select 'Static' Mode: Begin with the pre-set configurations to ensure optimal performance.

Utilizing the Drag-and-Drop Interface

The Meta-Tag Generator features a user-friendly drag-and-drop interface that allows you to arrange elements in your desired order. You can create rules for the entire website or specific sections by using secondary rules, making it easy to tailor meta-tags to your site's unique needs.

Building Custom Rules with Multiple Elements

The Meta-Tag Generator allows you to create a hierarchy of rules based on URL filters. This enables advanced customization for different sections of your website, each with unique optimization rules.


List of Customizable Elements

  • Business Name: Add your business name or associated brand in a short, effective format. This is crucial for title and meta-tag branding.

  • KW1/2/3/4 (Assigned Keywords): Use these to prioritize keywords based on suitability. KW1 is the most suitable keyword, followed by KW2, and so on. To emphasize multiple keywords, place these items in your rule multiple times.

  • H1 (First H1 Element on the Page): Use the first <h1> tag as a primary title or heading, which is crucial for SEO.

  • H1
    (Conditional H1 Usage)
    : Utilizes the H1 content for descriptions only if not used in the title.

  • H2, H3, H4, H5, H6 (Header Elements): Represents different levels of headings and subheadings.

  • H2
    (Sequential H2 Usage)
    : Sequentially uses <h2> elements in the order they appear on the page. To use multiple H2 headers, place this item several times in the rule.

  • H2:1/2/3 (Specific H2 Elements): Targets the first, second, or third <h2> element specifically.

  • H1/2/3/4 (Sequential Header Usage): Starts with the first H1, moving sequentially through headers.

  • Text (Manual Editable Text): Allows custom text additions to meta-tags, such as "Call us today for a quote."

  • Prefix (Sentence Openers): Use prefabricated openers like "Cost-effective" or "Advanced" to enhance descriptions. If none are suitable, this item will be skipped.

  • Customer (Target Audience): Identifies the main audience for your product or service. Skipped if unsuitable.

  • Location (Geographic Targeting): Adds geographic relevance to your meta-tags. Skipped if no suitable location is identified.

  • Provider (Expertise Identification): Indicates the service or product provider. Skipped if there’s no suitable provider.

  • USI-Short/Long (User Search Intent): Represents the short and long versions of user search intent.

  • USI1/2 (Conditional USI): Chooses between short and long USI based on context.

  • XPath (Scraped Text Element): Uses text from a specific webpage element identified by XPath. If the element isn’t found, this rule is skipped.

By understanding and strategically combining these elements, you can create highly effective meta-tags tailored to your site’s content and audience.

Best Practices for Meta-Tag Optimization

  • Prioritize Relevant Keywords: Integrate the most relevant keywords with the highest promotional score into your meta-tags for maximum effectiveness.

  • Position Primary Keywords: Ensure the primary keyword appears at the beginning of the title for better conversion rates and search snippet visibility.

  • Leverage AI Computations: Creating optimized meta-tags involves complex AI computations and adherence to restrictions such as length and structure.

Note: The system can operate with or without keywords.
