Example Use Case: Find All SEO-related Phrases

  • To find all SEO-related phrases you can use the Predefined SEO Metadata Filter
    • This will select all relevant system labels for you, and display the list of phrases.
  • It's a best practice to have these phrases translated by a human so that they are more accurate for the search engines to find and when displayed in the search results.
    • To check which of these phrases have not yet been translated by a human, combine this filter with the Translated By filter and select No Human Translation.
