CTR Framework

Every meta title and description produced by this skill

must be built on these CTR mechanics:

What Drives Clicks

| Signal | How to Use It |

|----------------------|------------------------------------------------------|

| Keyword match | Primary keyword first in title — matches search term |

| Benefit lead | Lead description with outcome, not feature |

| Power words | Words that trigger action or curiosity (see list) |

| Specificity | Numbers and specifics outperform vague claims |

| CTA verb | End description with an action word |

| Emotional trigger | Speak to the feeling behind the search |

| Urgency / scarcity | Use only when genuine — never fabricate |

Power Word Bank

Use 1–2 of these per meta description — never more:

Curiosity: Discover, Uncover, Exactly, The Truth About,

What Nobody Tells You

Benefit: Proven, Guaranteed, Free, Instant,

Without [pain point]

Authority: Complete Guide, Expert, #1, Most Trusted

Action: Get, Start, Try, See, Learn, Find Out

Specificity: [number] Ways, In [timeframe],

Step-by-Step, [stat]

What to Never Use

• "Click here" or "Click to learn more" — generic,

penalised for passive intent

• All caps words — treated as spam signals
• Keyword stuffing — using primary keyword more than once

in the meta description

• Duplicate meta descriptions — every page needs unique copy
• Vague openers — "This page is about..." or

"We offer..." wastes character space

• First-person plural — "We", "Our", "Us"

reduces relevance signals

Character Limits and Behaviour

| Element | Ideal Range | Hard Limit | If Over Limit |

|----------------------|----------------|------------|----------------------------|

| Title Tag | 50–60 chars | 60 chars | Truncated with "..." in SERP|

| Meta Description | 140–155 chars | 160 chars | Truncated mid-sentence |

| OG Title | 40–60 chars | 88 chars | Truncated in social preview|

| OG Description | 100–200 chars | 300 chars | Truncated in social preview|

| Twitter Title | 40–60 chars | 70 chars | Truncated in card |

| Twitter Description | 100–200 chars | 200 chars | Truncated in card |

Rule: Never end a meta description mid-sentence.

If approaching the limit, cut a clause rather than

let it truncate naturally.

Page Type Copy Rules

Adjust tone and structure based on page_type:

| Page Type | Title Format | Description Approach |

|----------------|-------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------|

| Landing Page | Keyword + Outcome + Brand | Benefit lead → USP → CTA |

| Blog Post | Keyword + Curiosity hook | Question or provocative statement → answer |

| Pillar Page | Keyword + "Complete Guide" | Scope statement → depth signal → CTA |

| Product Page | Product Name + Keyword + Brand | Feature benefit → social proof signal → CTA|

| Homepage | Brand + Core keyword + Tagline | Who you are + who you serve + CTA |

| Category Page | Category keyword + "Best / Top" | What's covered → audience signal → CTA |

---

Output Structure

The skill must always produce output in this exact format:

# Meta Tag Output

**Page:** [page_title]
**Primary Keyword:** [primary_keyword]
**Page Type:** [page_type]

---

## SERP Preview

This is approximately how the page will appear in search results:

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ [Title Tag — displayed in blue]                             │
│ https://yourdomain.com/page-url                             │
│ [Meta Description — displayed in grey below the URL]        │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

---

## Title Tag Variants

Write 3 variants — the user should A/B test these:

| #   | Title Tag                          | Chars | Keyword Position | CTR Angle         |
|-----|------------------------------------|-------|------------------|-------------------|
| V1  | [variant 1 — keyword first]        | [n]   | First word       | Benefit-led       |
| V2  | [variant 2 — keyword + power word] | [n]   | First phrase     | Curiosity/urgency |
| V3  | [variant 3 — keyword + brand]      | [n]   | First phrase     | Authority/brand   |

**Recommended:** V[n] — [one sentence reason why 
this variant will perform best for this page type 
and audience]

---

## Open Graph Tags (Social Sharing)

WhatsApp, and Slack:

<meta property="og:title"

content="[OG title — can be more creative than title tag,

40–60 chars]" />

<meta property="og:description"

content="[OG description — can be more conversational

than meta description, 100–200 chars, no char limit

pressure]" />

<meta property="og:type"

content="[website / article / product]" />

<meta property="og:url"

content="[canonical URL placeholder]" />

<meta property="og:image"

content="[image URL placeholder — recommended

1200x630px]" />

---

## Twitter / X Card Tags

Used when the page is shared on X (Twitter):

<meta name="twitter:card"

content="summary_large_image" />

<meta name="twitter:title"

content="[Twitter title — punchy, 40–60 chars,

can differ from title tag]" />

<meta name="twitter:description"

content="[Twitter description — conversational tone,

100–200 chars]" />

<meta name="twitter:image"

Execution Steps

1. Read page_type and apply the corresponding

copy rules from the Page Type Copy Rules table

1. Extract the single most compelling benefit or

outcome from content_summary and usp —

this becomes the lead for Description V1

1. Identify the core question the searcher is asking

when they type primary_keyword —

this becomes the hook for Description V2

1. Find the strongest specific claim, number, or

social proof signal from content_summary —

this becomes the lead for Description V3

1. Write Title V1 — keyword first, benefit second,

brand third if brand_name provided

1. Write Title V2 — keyword + power word combination,

curiosity or urgency angle

1. Write Title V3 — keyword + authority signal or

brand, suited to navigational intent

1. Write all three meta description variants using

the CTR framework — check character count

after every draft

1. Verify no variant ends mid-sentence near

the character limit — trim if needed

1. Write OG title and description —

these can be more conversational and creative

than the SERP versions

1. Write Twitter title and description —

punchy, platform-appropriate tone

1. Build the SERP preview block using

the recommended title and description

1. Run the full Quality Checklist on all variants
2. Build the Variant Comparison Table
3. State the recommended title and description

variant with a one-sentence reason for each
