Global SEO Settings

SEO sounds intimidating, but your global settings are really just telling Google "hey, here's what our church is about." Takes five minutes and it's totally worth it.

Where to Find It

Head to Settings > SEO. This is where you set the defaults that apply across your whole site.

What to Set Up

Site Title Format Controls how your page titles appear in search results. The default "Page Title | Church Name" works great. Keep it under 60 characters total.

Meta Description Write a 120–160 character description of your church. Include your city or neighborhood so local folks can find you. Think of it as your church's elevator pitch for Google.

Social Sharing Image Upload a 1200×630 pixel image that shows when someone shares your site on Facebook or X. Your church logo on a branded background works perfectly.

Sitemap Keep this toggled on. It lives at /sitemap.xml and helps Google find all your pages. Set it and forget it.

tip

These are defaults. You can override any of them on individual pages for sermons, events, or blog posts that need their own SEO attention.
