888861 - The page description and better title are needed for the Firefox OS consumer page

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Marketing :: Copy, task)

Description

[Kohei Yoshino [:kohei]]

The meta description (and OGP) is needed to help SEO and sharing.

I believe the title "Firefox OS — mozilla.org" can also be better.

Comment 1

[Matej Novak [:matej]]

I think we're already planning on updating the title (Jen, can you confirm?).

Here's the new text:

Firefox OS — The Adaptive Phone — Great Smartphone Features, Apps & More — mozilla.org

Would that work for the meta description as well?

Comment 2

[Jennifer Bertsch [:jbertsch]]

I'll let cmore speak to the OGP work, but yes, we'd like to update the title.

Thanks for the text, Matej.  I think that should work for the meta descriptino too.

Comment 3

[Chris More [:cmore]]

I like Matej's description and as for the meta tags, Kohei's bug 834422 should address that too. Do it!

[Kohei Yoshino [:kohei]]

A page description is shown in search engine result pages, along with the page title. It can be longer (150 characters) and different from the page title.

Comment 6

[Francesco Lodolo [:flod]]

Not sure if making this text non localizable is a good idea.

Comment 7

[Kohei Yoshino [:kohei]]

still waiting for the description (for SEO)

Comment 8

[Alex Gibson [:agibson]]

I'll wrap the string for localization and update

Do we have an appropriate meta description? Is there anything to be gained, SEO wise by just duplicating the page title?

Kohei - please use the text Matej already provided for the description and the title.  Thank you.

Comment 12

[Alex Gibson [:agibson]]

I've updated the PR to include a meta description tag (reusing the page title copy).
