- Select View State.
- In the Meta Description box, type a description of your page (approximately 50 words or less). This is the description that appears on a search engine page.
- In the Meta Keywords box, type words or phrases that represent your page (approximately 25 or less words or phrases works best).
To learn more about the Meta Description or Meta Keywords sections, move your pointer over the question mark (tooltip) button.

To learn more how to work with the HTML Editor, see the following topics:
The HTML Editor consists of two main sections:
- Toolbar: The toolbar contains features that are similar to those found in word-processing or web design programs. You can also do things like add images and create web links.
Your browser may have security settings that prevent you from using some of these buttons. You can use keyboard shortcuts instead (for example, to copy text, press Ctrl+C keys).
- Workspace: The workspace is the space below the toolbar where you make changes to the template (if you chose one) and/or add new content.
Choosing a Template

- Upon completion, click either (to save and edit later) or (to save and publish the page).
