To change the title that appears in Google search results for your website created using Webflow, you will need to update the meta title tag. The meta title tag is an HTML element that specifies the title of a webpage and plays a crucial role in search engine optimization (SEO). The title tag is displayed as the clickable headline in search engine results pages (SERPs) and is important for both attracting organic search traffic and improving click-through rates (CTRs).

Here's how you can change the title that appears in Google search results for your Webflow website:

  1. Log in to your Webflow account and navigate to the project dashboard.
  2. Click on the Pages tab to display the list of pages in your project.
  3. Select the page for which you want to change the title.
  4. In the page settings panel on the right-hand side, click on the Settings tab.
  5. Scroll down to the SEO settings section.
  6. Locate the "Meta Title" field and enter the desired title for your page.
  • Keep your title concise, descriptive, and relevant to the page content.
  • Ideally, the length of the title should be between 50-60 characters to ensure it is fully displayed in search results.
  • Include relevant keywords to optimize your page for search engine ranking.
  1. Repeat the process for other pages on your website or customize each page's title individually.
  2. Click on the Publish button to save your changes and make them live on your website.
  3. Once your website is live, Google will gradually update the search results to reflect the new meta title you have set. However, the speed at which this happens can vary.

Changing the meta title of your web pages using Webflow's built-in SEO settings ensures that you have control over how your website appears in Google search results. Remember to optimize the meta title with relevant keywords and make it compelling to increase the chances of attracting user clicks.
