Editing metadata

By default, if metadata isn't defined, search engines can automatically choose text from a webpage to represent the listing in their search results.

It's a good practice to edit metadata on your website as it gives you control over how it looks and performs in search engines like Google and Bing.

Modifying metadata can impact your website's ranking in search results, for better or worse. Therefore, it's essential to be cautious while making any changes and ensure that they include relevant and strong keywords that align with your store and homepage.
