command Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 Why is it, when I do a search for my site through one of the search engines (Yahoo, Google, etc.), the results are shown as "Index.html" instead of the name of my site? How can I change this to show the site name? Apparently everybody else on the internet has figured this out. (I guess I'm "slow") Thanks! Colette Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 Hi Colette and welcome to the forums Do you have a title in your "index.html" page? Quote
command Posted July 15, 2005 Author Posted July 15, 2005 Hi Colette and welcome to the forums Do you have a title in your "index.html" page? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Um.....no :-) I was under the impression it HAD to be named "index.html". Can you tell me how to title it and still follow the "index" rule? Thanks! Colette Quote
TCH-Don Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 Welcome to the forums Colette edit your index.html page and add yout text to the title tag, like this <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml <head> <title>Your Title Here</title> <link rev="made" href="mailto:" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> </head> Quote
