# Item Details SEO

> Making list details entries discoverable by search engines.

To display the details of a [List](/building-blocks/vikC2AWEpQGkZd4jGyoVxo/list-block/pQhPYuA28VXr5tLLFBcbCU) item, we use the [Item Details](/building-blocks/vikC2AWEpQGkZd4jGyoVxo/item-details-block-/4bE8XaFbJp45wkAwuWiz8f) block, which generates and displays the data for each list entry **on the same page**. To index each item’s details as a separate page that can be discovered by search engines as well as apply a custom slug and [meta data](https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/special-tags), you can set up SEO parameters for your Item Details data.

## How to set up item detail seo

Since there's only one Item Details page for a specific List, you can define custom SEO parameters for each List item page within your data source.

<Tip>The SEO parameters will be applied only if the Item Details page is valid, i.e. it is linked to a specific List block.</Tip>

The following fields can be added (**please, take into account that the names are not case-sensitive**):

* **SEO:Index** – indicates whether the item page should be indexed or not. Can take yes/no, 1/0, true/false values. If positive, the page will be indexed by search engines and added to Sitemap.

* **SEO:Slug** – Here you can define a custom URL [slug](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clean_URL#Slug) for the item page. If left empty, the automatically-generated slug will be used for the item page. Your final shareable URL with the SEO slug attached will look like this: `https://yourdomain.com/page-name/SEO-slug/r/recordID`. Do not store a `/` in the database; Softr will append this for you.

* **SEO:Title** – Custom meta title for the page.

* **SEO:Description** – Custom meta description for the page.

In the example below, you can see how the SEO fields filled in for a "Leather Shoes" product.
<Tip>The data source configuration described here is all you need to do. **Nothing needs to be done in your Softr application in order to enable the SEO setup.**</Tip>

<Tip>If you have too many (**more than 1000**) entries that you want to index, the system can have issues adding them to the sitemap automatically. To address this, add **/generate-sitemap** at the end of your site URL (e.g. yourdomain.com/generate-sitemap) in the browser address bar and hit enter. After the action is complete, all your List Details URLs should be added to your sitemap.</Tip>

## Social media

Similar to SEO fields, you can also add the following social media parameters to specify how each list item page should appear when shared on social media:

* **Social:Image**

* **Social:Title**

* **Social:Description**

You can check out how the page social parameters work [here](/application-settings/n3K2UEfpC9BpHgakMzUU5Y/page-settings/49UoDpTpTPJe69RafDsALq). The names are not case-sensitive. Below is an example of the social fields added for a particular list item.

</Frame>

There are tools for [Twitter](https://cards-dev.twitter.com/validator) and [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/post-inspector/) that can be used to check how the page's social tags will appear on those social networks.
