Descriptions aren’t required, but are recommended to enhance SEO (i.e., search engine results rankings). They should be no longer than a couple sentences.
Other metadata
There are a few other metadata fields you may find useful. You can find them by clicking on the Metadata tab in the editing interface.
Author and Publication date
If you create any customizations that involve page indexing, these files may come in useful for displaying and sorting your index results.
These two fields values are also used in the page heading in certain circumstances.
Canonical URL
If your page replicates content from another page, you may want to provide the URL of the other page here for SEO purposes.
