Using emojis in page titles and meta descriptions is allowed, but won’t help with SEO and may even be ignored.

Google provided an update on the use of emojis in webpage titles and meta descriptions, saying they’ll neither hurt or help SEO.

This is stated by Google’s Search Advocate John Mueller during the Google Search Central SEO office-hours hangout recorded on January 28.

One of the submitted questions asks for an update on Google’s position on emojis, specifically when it comes to using them in titles and descriptions.

Websites are allowed to use emojis when optimizing pages, as they’re not against any of Google’s guidelines.

But is it advisable to use them?

Optimizing webpages with emojis seems like wasted effort
