Introduction
The "Meta Guide" tool (i.e., Meta Tag Generator) is the core of HeronTool, helping you quickly generate SEO-compliant meta titles, descriptions, OG tags, and Twitter cards. This guide will walk you through it step by step.
Step-by-Step Usage
- Open the page: Visit HeronTool's Meta Tag Generator, enter your page URL or title.
- Generate core tags: Click "Generate" — the tool auto-fills the Title Tag and Meta Description. You can manually tweak to ensure keywords and optimal length.
- Extend social tags: In the "Social Preview" area, use OG Tags and Twitter Card features to set images and descriptions for attractive sharing.
- Check length: Use the Description Length tool to keep descriptions within 150–160 characters to avoid truncation.
- Export code: Copy the generated HTML snippet and paste it into your page's section.
Companion Tools
Besides the generator, HeronTool offers EXIF Viewer to inspect image metadata, and optimization suggestions for each tag. All tools work together to make SEO optimization easier.
