How to edit the title and meta description for your blog page in Showit

Quick answer

Your blog page (or Journal page) lives in WordPress, not Showit. To edit its title and meta description, log in to WordPress, go to Pages, and click Edit or Quick Edit on that page.

How to fix it in Showit

1. Log in to your WordPress admin dashboard — usually at yourdomain.com/wp-admin

2. In the left-hand menu, click Pages

3. Find the page named Blog, Journal, or whatever you've called your blog index page

4. Click Edit to open the full page editor, or hover over the page name and click Quick Edit to update it inline

5. Update the page title and meta description — if you have an SEO plugin like Yoast SEO or Rank Math, you'll find the meta description field in their settings block within the editor

6. Click Update to save

7. Re-scan in FastaSEO to confirm the changes are live

What's the issue

Showit uses WordPress to power the blog section of your site. The blog index page (the one visitors land on when they click 'Blog' or 'Journal' in your nav) is managed in WordPress. That means its SEO settings — including the page title and meta description — live there too.

Why it matters

• Your blog index page is often one of the most-visited pages on your site. It needs a clear title and meta description so Google and your visitors know what to expect when they land there. Because it lives in WordPress, any changes you make in Showit won't affect its SEO — you have to go to WordPress to control this.

What good looks like

A title that describes what the blog covers and includes your brand name (40–60 characters). For example: "Blog — Jane Smith Photography" or "Journal — Branding Tips for Creatives". Paired with a meta description that tells readers what to expect (140–160 characters).

How long this takes

Updating the title and meta description in WordPress takes less than two minutes.
