While it's possible to automatically generate your SEO titles and descriptions, this can lead to poor-quality titles and descriptions which will be ignored by search engines. The best titles and descriptions are ones you write yourself.

Controlling SEO for Web Stories
NOTE:
Before proceeding, you'll need to have the Web Stories WordPress plugin from Google installed and configured.
To get started, click on Search Appearance in the All in One SEO menu and then click on the Content Types tab.
Scroll down and you should see a section called Stories. This content type is generated by the Web Stories WordPress plugin from Google.
The Preview shows an example of how your content may look in search results based on the Story Title and Meta Description formats you set.
NOTE:
These settings will be hidden if Show in Search Results is set to No. This is because you've chosen to not have your Web Stories to appear on search engines. Change Show in Search Results to Yes if you want this content to appear in search engines.
Setting the Title Formats
To set the title format that will be used to automatically generate titles for your stories, click on one of our smart tags shown above the Story Title field.
You can also enter text in the Title field. There’s also an emoji picker where you can add an emoji.
You can type the hash character ( # ) in the field to display a list of available tags you can choose from.
Setting the Meta Description Format
You can set the format that will be used to automatically generate meta descriptions for your web stories by using the Meta Description field.
This field works in the same way as the Story Title field. You can select from one of the smart tags displayed above the field, or type the hash character ( # ) in the field to display a list of available tags you can choose from.
NOTE:
All in One SEO will output the AmpStory schema for Web Stories automatically.
Save your changes, and that's it! Your Web Stories will be ready to be found by search engines!
