Hello. I’m Jason and
0:06
I’m an analyst here at Main Street ROI
0:08
and here at Main Street ROI we specialize
0:11
in helping small businesses with their
0:12
digital marketing uh our marketing tip
0:14
for today is regarding how to find title
0:18
tags and meta descriptions on web pages
0:20
uh maybe you’re curious how Google sees
0:22
your information is it presenting it the
0:24
way you want it to be presented that
0:26
sort of thing or perhaps you’re curious
0:28
about what a competitor is using so I’m
0:30
going to show you exactly how to find
0:31
that information on a web page first
0:33
we’re going to do it manually and then
0:35
I’m going to show you a trick that I
0:36
know that I think that you’ll find
0:37
helpful
0:39
um so first off we’re going to go to the
0:41
page we’re curious about I’m just using
0:43
the Main Street ROI homepage here so
0:46
you’re going to go pretty much anywhere
0:48
here any dead space on the page and
0:51
right click
0:52
and you’re going to go to view page
0:54
source
0:55
now don’t get intimidated this is the
0:58
code for the page but you can’t break it
0:59
or anything like that and we don’t need
1:02
most of this stuff what we do need is
1:04
the title and The Meta description so
1:07
we’re going to go control F that’s going
1:09
to bring up our search function here
1:11
just going to put in title
1:13
and you’ll see several titles come up we
1:16
want the very first one here
1:18
so right here
1:21
that is
1:23
our title tag digital marketing agency
1:25
for small businesses Main Street ROI
1:28
that’s us
1:30
um so then right below it here you see
1:32
Meta
1:34
meta and description this is going to be
1:37
our meta description tag
1:39
in between the quotation marks here is
1:43
the actual meta description
1:46
right there
1:47
so we have
1:49
right by the top title is our our
1:52
title tag and then directly below it is
1:56
our
1:57
meta description so there’s the hard way
2:00
not super hard
2:02
but that’s how you find that information
2:04
so let’s go back and show you the uh the
2:07
pro tip if you will
2:09
so I’m using Chrome so I’m going to use
2:11
a Chrome browser extension in order to
2:14
get that I’m going to go to the Chrome
2:15
web store and I’m going to find this SEO
2:18
meta in one click extension
2:21
now showing you how to download this and
2:24
install it is beyond the scope of this
2:25
video but you can find videos about it
2:28
online no problem it’s a fairly
2:30
straightforward installation and usage
2:32
so let’s go back and show you how to use
2:34
it so we go back to our page here I just
2:37
go up to the the icon here for SEO meta
2:41
in one click and I click it here we go
2:43
one click we have our title
2:48
and we have our description
2:51
right there no problem uh we don’t worry
2:53
about the code we have to search for
2:54
anything it’s right there at the top
2:56
another good thing about using this
2:58
extension is that there’s other
2:59
information available to you if you want
3:00
it such as the headers image all tags
3:04
different links on the page that kind of
3:07
thing very very helpful very quick and
