- What's the last part (or slug) of the page URL?: This text is the last part of your page's URL. You should only change this if it's necessary to reflect the content of your page. We recommend keeping it short and easy to read.
- Automatically redirect to the new URL once site is published: When you change a page's URL slug, you can choose to let Wix automatically redirect visitors who try to use the old URL to the new URL. Alternatively, you can uncheck this option and manually create your own redirect.
- What's the page's title tag (search results title)?: Add a title tag that summarizes the content of the page. Enter your title tag as it is meant to appear on search engines results.
- What's the page's meta description (search results description)?: Add a short meta description of the content on the page. This description helps users decide if the page is relevant to them.
- Click the Let search engines index this page toggle:
- Enabled: Visitors can find your page when searching keywords and phrases in search engines (e.g. Google).
- Disabled: Visitors cannot find your page when searching keywords and phrases in search engines (e.g. Google). This is useful if you don't want to publish your page yet.

Important:
- Whenever you make changes and publish your site, the changes need to be crawled again by search engines before they appear in search results. If the pages have already been indexed, you will need to wait for search engines to update their database before the pages are removed.
- Password protected pages do not appear in search results.
- Click Preview on Google at the bottom of the SEO tab to see how your page looks in Google search results.
