Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Guidelines

SEO descriptions are important because they produce more informative results provided to users of public search engines. Without proper SEO descriptions, FEWS NET information may be difficult to find through a web search.

SEO Description Field Guidelines 

The Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Description field is your opportunity to provide additional, necessary detail about the report that is not contained in its title.

Additional detail options to include in the form of a short sentence or two:

  1. Area or region covered by the report (global, region, country).

  2. Kind of report.

  3. Details unique to the report.

  4. Period the report covers, its publication date or any other germane date.

Templates and Examples

In the example templates below, each report is summarized in one sentence, as short as possible.
