The Meta tags tab lets you edit the meta title and description for every page, blog category, blog tag and shop item on your site, all from one screen. These are what Google shows as the clickable blue title and the grey description in search results. For what makes a good one, see Meta titles and descriptions.
In-place editing and the AI writer need the Business plan. On a trial you can open the tab and bulk-edit by exporting and re-importing the CSV, but the per-row Edit and Generate with AI buttons are locked.
Finding it
Go to SEO Manager › Meta tags.
The tabs across the top
A strip of tabs lets you switch between different parts of your site, each with the same table:
- Page manager: all your pages (always shown)
- Blog categories and Blog Tags: shown if you have a blog
- Shop Products and Shop Categories: shown if you have a shop
The table
Each row is one page (or category, tag or product), with columns for Page, Meta Title, Meta Description, Primary Keyword and Status. Status reads Indexable or Noindex, which you control on the Page indexation tab, not here. Sort by clicking the Page or Meta Title heading, and use the Rows selector (10 / 25 / 50 / 100) and pager at the bottom to move through a long list.
Editing one record
- 1Click Edit on the row you want. The Edit meta tags window opens.
- 2Write the Meta Title. A live counter helps you keep it around 50 to 60 characters.
- 3Write the Meta Description, aiming for around 120 to 150 characters.
- 4Optionally set a Primary Keyword: the single most important word or phrase for that page.
- 5Click Save all.
Writing meta tags with AI
On the Business plan, the Generate with AI button at the top writes a meta title and description for every record in the current list in one go. You get three AI generations a month, and each click uses one of them (it processes the whole list in a single run), so the counter beside the button shows how many you have left.
Turn on Show only empty meta first if you just want to fill the gaps. After a run, each row's button changes from Edit to View AI: open it to see the suggestions, pick one with its radio button, tweak it, and click Save all.
The AI suggestions don't always land inside the character limits. If you see a length warning after picking one, trim it to fit before saving.
Bulk editing with a CSV
For big changes, or to hand the job to someone without giving them admin access, work in a spreadsheet:
- 1Click Download current data to get a CSV with columns Database ID, Name, Seo Url, Meta Title and Meta Description.
- 2Edit only the Meta Title and Meta Description columns. Leave Database ID and Seo Url exactly as they are: they're how Limecube matches each row back to the right page.
- 3Click Upload meta data file and choose your saved CSV. Only rows you actually changed are updated, and you'll get a per-line message if an ID or URL doesn't match.
There's also a Download duplicates for meta titles and descriptions button, which lists pages that share the same meta so you can make them unique.
Tips
- Aim for around 50 to 60 characters for titles and 120 to 150 for descriptions, so Google doesn't cut them off.
- Keep every page's meta unique. Duplicated titles and descriptions weaken all of them.
- Export before a big change, so you have a copy to fall back on.
- The Status column is read-only here. Change whether a page is indexed on the Page indexation tab.
