1. Page level meta data control


Setting up Metadata helps search engines understand your content and influences how your pages appear in search results. In TeleportHQ you can set up the meta data including meta title and meta description for each page as well as set up default meta data for the entire project.


To set up the meta data for each individual page:


  • From the Left panel -> Layers and Files tab -> Pages section
  • Click on the ⋮ icon on any page
  • Click Page SEO Settings
  • Set up the Meta Title and Meta Description


To set up the default meta data for the project: 


  • From the Left panel -> Layers and Files tab -> Pages section
  • Click on the ⋮ icon on any page
  • Click Global SEO Settings
  • Set up the Meta Title and Meta Description
  • Click Save changes

2. Indexing controls


When enabling No Index on a page, it will be excluded from the sitemap and a noindex tag will be added to prevent search engines from indexing it.


To enable or disable No Index for each individual page:


  • From the Left panel -> Layers and Files tab -> Pages section
  • Click on the ⋮ icon on any page
  • Click Page SEO Settings
  • Check or uncheck the No Index switcher

3. Canonical URL management


Canonical URLs prevent duplicate content issues and help consolidate ranking signals toward the correct version of a page. In TeleportHQ you can set up the default page settings when it comes to canonical URL’s but you can also overwrite them at page level.


To define the project-level canonical URL behavior:

  • From the Left panel -> Layers and Files tab -> Pages section
  • Click on the ⋮ icon on any page
  • Click Global SEO Settings
  • Enable or disable the Use Self Canonical URLs from the switcher
  • Click Save changes


When this option is enabled it means that all pages use self-canonical URLs by default.


To override the default setup: 

  • From the Left panel -> Layers and Files tab -> Pages section
  • Click on the ⋮ icon on any page
  • Click Page SEO Settings
  • Enable or disable the Custom Canonical from the switcher and add a different URL as Canonical

To set up a redirect at the page level:

  • From the Left panel -> Layers and Files tab -> Pages section
  • Click on the ⋮ icon on any page
  • Click Page SEO Settings
