# SEO Meta Tags - title, description

`SEO` stands for "Search Engine Optimization", which refers to optimizing your website to be more visible on search engines.

In essence, it involves techniques to ensure your website appears more prominently in search engine results.

Within the scope of SEO, `title` and `description` are particularly important as they define the title and description of a webpage that will be displayed in search results.

> *Note*: Search engines prefer that every page within a web service has a unique `title` and `description` reflecting the nature of each page.

<br />

## title Tag

The `title` tag defines the title of a webpage. This title appears in the browser's tab and is also displayed as the title in search engine results.

For instance, if you search for CodeFriends using a search engine, you might see the title `CodeFriends | The Easiest Software Learning Platform`, which corresponds to the content of the `title` tag for CodeFriends.

```html title="Example of a title tag"
<head>
  <title>Learn the Basics of Web Development</title>
</head>
```

<br />

## description Meta Tag

The `description` meta tag provides a brief description of the webpage.

Since the description appears as a short phrase under the page title in search results, it should be carefully crafted.

```html title="Example of using a description meta tag"
<head>
  <meta name="description" content="Basic learning material for beginners in web coding" />
</head>
```

The `title` tag represents the webpage's title and is displayed in search results and browser tabs. The `description` meta tag defines the page's description, displayed below the title in search results. Therefore, both tags are crucial for SEO.

### The `description` meta tag represents the title of the website and is displayed in search results and browser tabs.
