Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Tools - Page Title and Meta Tags
Wild Apricot platform has been designed to be search engine friendly - so that content of your site will easily be read and indexed by crawlers, whatever account plan you use.
This feature provides additional tools for web pros - ability to edit page titles, meta tag descriptions and meta tag keywords. You can edit meta tags for the whole site - or adjust them for each page individually. Page titles can be generated automatically - or edited for each page as well.
Meta tags for the whole site
Global meta tags allow you to define default meta tags settings for all webpages. Go to Settings / Meta tags (For Search Engines). 
You have the following three options:
- Keywords - enter your keywords separated by comma. Keywords will be inserted on every page into <meta name="keywords"> tag.
- Description - enter your description phrases separated by comma. Description will be inserted on every page into <meta name="description"> tag.
- Raw header - Enter HTML code to be inserted on every page into <head> tag.
After you enter the meta tags you need to click on [Reset all pages to use this] button. Meta tags will be applied to all webpages. Click on [Save] button to exit.
Individual webpage meta tags
To customize individual page meta tags go into Page Management and click on the Meta-Tags link: 
Individual meta tag settings are similar to global meta tag settings with the following differences:
- Page title - will be inserted on this page into <title> tag. Page title will appear on top of the internet browser. You can also use Use automatically generated page title check box to generate title from the page name.
- Use Default - by default every page uses global meta tags. If Use Default is checked then the edit area is grayed out and you are not be able to edit it. If you need to edit the default meta tag you have to remove the check mark and edit tags.
You can set Keywords, Descriptions and Raw Headers similarly as above.
Note: if you update global meta tags - they will be updated for all individual pages wherever the Use Default is selected. Any meta tags specific for a page (not default) will not be affected by global meta tags update.
Exceptions
Meta Tags
Some of the pages in Wild Apricot are generated automatically. A good example of this would be a member directory profile page that can be accessed through member directory page.
At the moment it is not possible to define meta-tags for member directory profile pages
See Member directory and Member and contact - edit profile
Site map
Currently it is not possible to generate a site map file and place it to the root directory, but there is a workaround that you can find on our community forum. Just go to http://community.wildapricot.com and do a search for "site map".
