Core Concepts

# Enhanced Titles

[Copy for LLMs](https://nuxtseo.com/docs/seo-utils/guides/fallback-title.md)

## [Introduction](#introduction)

Getting your page titles right is difficult. Nuxt SEO provides several utils to make it easier: fallback titles, page meta titles a default title template.

You can learn more about titles and titles templates with the [Page Titles](https://nuxtseo.com/learn-seo/nuxt/mastering-meta/titles) guide.

## [Fallback Title](#fallback-title)

Ensures that every page has a title by generating one from the last slug segment.

For example, if your page is `/blog/my-awesome-post`, the title will be `My Awesome Post`.

This is useful for when you have a lot of pages and don't want to manually set a title for each one or if you simply forget to set a title.

To disable this feature:

nuxt.config.ts

```
export default defineNuxtConfig({
  seo: {
    fallbackTitle: false
  }
})
```

## [I18n Integration](#i18n-integration)

When `@nuxtjs/i18n` is installed, the fallback title will first attempt to resolve the title from your translation files using the `pages.{routeName}.title` key, where `routeName` is the Nuxt route name (the file name without extension).

en.ts

en.json

```
export default {
  pages: {
    about: { title: 'About Us' },
    contact: { title: 'Contact' },
    index: { title: 'Home' }
  }
}
```

```
{
  "pages": {
    "about": { "title": "About Us" },
    "contact": { "title": "Contact" },
    "index": { "title": "Home" }
  }
}
```

If no translation is found, the module falls back to title-casing the last URL segment as before.

## [Error Pages](#error-pages)

On error pages (e.g. 404), the title template reverts to just `'%s'` with no separator or site name appended. This avoids generating titles like `404 - Page not found | My Site`.

## [Default Title Template](#default-title-template)

By default, a title template is inserted for you in the `nuxt.config.ts` file.

```
// equivalent of what the module does
useHead({
  titleTemplate: '%s %separator %siteName',
})
```

This will set your titles to a template like `'Page Title | Site Name'`.

You can either modify the template or the params:

- `%s` is the page title `useHead({ title: 'My Page Title' })`
- `%separator` see [Title template params](https://nuxtseo.com/learn/mastering-meta/titles#template-params)
- `%siteName` see [Site Config](https://nuxtseo.com/docs/site-config/guides/how-it-works).

You can disable this by [Disabling Default Meta](https://nuxtseo.com/docs/seo-utils/guides/default-meta#disable-default-meta) or simply overriding it.

## [Page Meta Title](#page-meta-title)

Normally you would need to use `useHead()` or `useSeoMeta()` to set your page title.

Nuxt SEO also gives you the option to add a title using [page meta](https://nuxt.com/docs/api/utils/define-page-meta) instead.

pages/index.vue

```
<script lang="ts" setup>
import { definePageMeta } from '#imports'

// Note: does not work for dynamic pages, only accepts strings
definePageMeta({
  title: 'My Page Title'
})
</script>
```
