title exists and is a sensible length

semantics/title

Why this matters

title is the first place an engine looks when building a citation label. Missing it, or having it truncated, turns your citation into a meaningless fragment.

How to fix it

Which advice applies depends on what the audit found. The label is the condition that triggers it.

  • missing

    Give every page a unique <title> of roughly 10–60 characters, with the most important information first.

  • short

    Expand it to 10–60 characters covering the page topic and the site identity.

  • long

    Trim it below 60 characters, front-load the keywords, and drop the long site suffix repeated on every page.
