Meta tags tell Google and social platforms how to display a page. Checking them — on your own pages or a competitor's — is one of the fastest SEO diagnostics there is.
The tags that matter
- Title and meta description — your search snippet.
- Robots — whether the page allows indexing (a stray
noindexhides pages). - Canonical — the preferred URL.
- Open Graph / Twitter — how shared links look.
Why analyze competitors
Seeing how top-ranking pages write their titles and descriptions reveals the keywords and angles that work in your niche — a quick, free competitive insight.
