How to optimise for SEO

Make your Shareables pages discoverable by search engines.

Embedding Methods and SEO

How you embed your Shareable affects its SEO potential:

Script Tags (Best for SEO)

When you embed using script tags, your content renders directly in the page DOM:

  • Search engines can crawl the embedded content
  • Content becomes part of your main page
  • Recommended when SEO matters for your embedded widget

iframes

When using iframe embeds:

  • Modern search engines (like Google) can crawl iframe content
  • Content lives in a separate document context
  • Works for SEO, but script tags are preferred

Hosted Web Pages (Full SEO Control)

When using Shareables as a complete website (at yourname.shareables.ai or a custom domain):

  • Full control over all SEO settings
  • Configure favicon, meta description, OG image, and custom code
  • Best option when your Shareable is the primary destination

SEO Settings for Hosted Pages

Configure these settings in SettingsSEO within the creator:

SettingDescription
Site NameUsed as the page title in browser tabs and search results
Meta DescriptionDescription shown in search results (keep under 160 characters)
FaviconBrowser tab icon (upload an image)
Open Graph ImageImage shown when shared on social media (1200x630px recommended)
Custom Head CodeAdd verification codes, additional meta tags, or analytics scripts

These SEO settings only apply to hosted pages, not embedded widgets.

Social Sharing (Open Graph)

When your hosted page is shared on social media, the preview uses:

  • Title — Uses your Site Name
  • Description — Uses your Meta Description
  • Image — Uses your Open Graph Image (1200x630px recommended)

Upload a compelling OG image to make your shares stand out in social feeds.

Custom Meta Tags

Use the Custom Head Code field to add any additional meta tags:

<!-- Google Search Console verification --> <meta name="google-site-verification" content="your-verification-code" /> <!-- Additional meta tags --> <meta name="author" content="Your Name" />

This is also where you’d add analytics scripts or other tracking codes.

Sitemap

Hosted Shareables pages are automatically included in a sitemap, helping search engines discover your content.

Indexing

By default, hosted pages are indexable by search engines.

Google Search Console

Verify your custom domain in Google Search Console to:

  • Monitor search performance
  • Submit your sitemap
  • Fix indexing issues

Add your verification code using the Custom Head Code field in Settings.
