Tell HN: Personal page title is most probably incorrect
"What is a good title?" - I asked this myself today when processing hundreds of thousands of domains.
- You would not believe how many personal sites are entitled "Blog", or "Home", or None at all, or just a one simple word
- Why am I expecting description inside you ask? Maybe because when going into a library I would not expect 50% of books with title "A book", or maybe I am just wrong
- For example Mozilla serves as a good example: "Internet for people, not profit — Mozilla (US)". It clearly defines the page goal
Do you know about how to 'rank a page'? In my software (work after hours) I check:
- if page has title
- if page has description
- if page has og:title
- if page has og:description
- if page returns valid code (redirection reduces page ranking)
- if page contains robots.txt (a good page should contain that)
What additional things I could check to rank a page myself? Is there any diagram, information?
