Amazon powered e-commerce website automatically generates page titles. Is there an alternative?

Greetings fellow Mozzers,

So the product pages pick up the product name and convert it into the page title by default. The development company says this is an Amazon limitation and we can't set custom page titles for product pages.

Is this the case? The official documentation from Amazon does not seem to suggest so.

Would greatly appreciate any feedback from the community.

Thanks,

Rishad.

Hello Rishad,

Even though this page says "Customizable meta data (title, description, keywords) they must not mean on every page because on this page a representative from Amazon says:

"There may be other solutions, but we don't currently have anything built into the Webstore which would allow you to modify the Product Detail page title. If you like, I can request the ability to the modify the Product Detail Page title creation as a Feature Request."

Later in the thread he continues with "I added the ability to modify the auto-generated page titles to our feature request list. Thanks for the great suggestion."

However that was a year ago and apparently they haven't gotten to it yet, which isn't surprising since I doubt Amazon wants other domains to compete with them at the product level, even if the owners ARE paying them for the privileged to compete.

Sorry.
