Where Is Metadata on Squarespace?

Last updated on December 30, 2022 @ 8:42 pm

Metadata is data that describes other data. In the context of Squarespace, metadata is typically used to improve the discoverability of your site’s content on search engines.

There are a few places where you can add metadata to your Squarespace site:

In the Site Header

The first place you can add metadata is in the site header. To do this, go to Settings > Advanced > Site Header.

Here you can add a title, description, and keywords for your site. These will be used as the default values for all pages on your site, but you can override them on individual pages if you want.

PRO TIP: If you are looking for metadata on Squarespace, be warned that it is not easily accessible. Metadata is important for SEO purposes, so you may want to look elsewhere if this is something you need for your website.

On Individual Pages

You can also add metadata to individual pages on your Squarespace site. To do this, go to the Page Settings panel for the page you want to edit and scroll down to the Search Engine Optimization section.

Here you can add a title, description, and keywords for that specific page. These values will override any values set in the site header.
