Hi, was reading that the title tag is the most essential for SEO, but the only meta tags I can create through the Elite Pro interface (Theme Options) is for description and keywords. Is there a way I can add a title to my site, or do I have to download some SEO plugin for that? It seems I should be able to add the text in to some file to get the job done. . . . please advise. Thank you.
Wanted to add: Here's the page source for www.everythingautism.org, below. I see something called Jet Pack Open Graph tags (??) but that's not what I want for the description for the site and I don't even know how to change it. Don't know what that is. My meta description should be: Everything Autism is a community resource and resource community dedicated to improving the quality of life for children and adults with autism and other intellectual disabilities in the Clear Lake area of Houston (as is entered into the Elite Pro Theme Options SEO) Meta Keywords should be: autism, Clear Lake, autism resource directory (as is entered into the Elite Pro Theme Options SEO) Meta Title should be: Everything Autism is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for children and adults with autism in the Bay Area of Houston. (no place to add this via Elite Pro Theme Options SEO) How do I get this into the home page for the site? Can you please give me code to put into the header file or a reliable plugin to use? My site's visibility (even for narrow search, Clear Lake, autism) sucks, and it was launched back in January. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

Hi, To put the site title go to Appearance->> Customize>> Site Title. You can also refer the image given below: For Meta keyword and description go to Appearance->>Theme Options>>SEO Regards, Sameer
Sameer, Thank you for responding! I followed your instructions Appearance->> Customize>> Site Title but mine is failing to load. All I get is a gray screen and it says loading but never does. I've tried it under a few browsers, the same thing happens. Can you please have a look? May I send you my credentials privately in an email? Thank you. ___ I just sent my credentials to [email protected] so you can access my site and have a look--Deep also has access to the server at GoDaddy. Emily
