How To Control Title & Image using HTML | Advanced Settings | Outbrain
How can I control my page’s default Title & Image using HTML?
Outbrain collects and interprets information using micro data, telling our crawlers what to pay attention to on your page. Our algorithms are able to better inform your audience recommendations and provide readers with a more personalized experience. Microdata also shares your default content attributes (subtitle/publisher name, thumbnail, headline) with our crawlers during content submission.
Our platform supports tags for the following:
- Titles
- Dates
- Images
- Author
- Content
- Description
- Site Name
