What Are Custom Meta Tags?

Custom meta tags let you manually define hidden page information used by search engines, browsers, and social platforms.

What Custom Meta Tags Are

Custom meta tags are hidden HTML metadata fields added to a specific page.

They do not appear visually on the page.

They can affect how the page is read by:

  • Search engines

  • Browsers

  • Social media platforms

  • SEO tools

  2. Open Funnels or Websites.

  3. Select the funnel or website you want to edit.

  4. Open the page or step you want to update.

  5. Click the SEO Meta Data icon at the top of the builder.

Example: Add a Noindex Meta Tag

Use a noindex tag when you do not want search engines to index a specific page.

Create a custom meta tag with these values:

  • Name: robots

  • Content: noindex

This tells search engines not to include that page in search results after the page is crawled again.


Common Issues and Fixes

The custom meta tag did not save

Click Update SEO Meta after adding the custom meta tag. The tag is not fully saved until the SEO metadata is updated.

Google has not updated the page yet

Search engines may take a few hours or a few days to recognize updated meta tags.

The timing depends on when the page is crawled again.

A private or draft page still appears in search results

Add a custom meta tag with:

  • Name: robots

  • Content: noindex

Search engines must crawl the page again before the result may disappear.
