Your website's global metadata is a set of details, including your site title, description, and favicon, that appear in browser tabs and search engine results. The global metadata applies site-wide as a fallback for any page that doesn't have its own metadata set.

Updating your global metadata and  favicon

1. In the left sidebar menu, go to website svg Website > settings Settings.

2. Click Website metadata.

3. Update your website title, description, and favicon.

In this panel, you can:

  • Edit the Title (used in browser tabs and search results)

  • Write a short Description (often shown in search previews)

  • Upload a Favicon (the small icon that appears in browser tabs)

4. To ensure your edits are live, select Publish in the upper right-hand corner of your editor

Note: Updating your website's Global metadata will not update the metadata description of each page of your website. This is a "back-up" option for pages that do not have a metadata description. You can use this article to update the metadata descriptions of each of your site's pages.
