⚠️ Why This Happens
There are two main reasons OTTO may skip a homepage title tag suggestion:
- Homepage not recognised as a page: OTTO uses specific signals to identify the homepage. If the root URL (e.g., https://yourdomain.com/) is redirected, returns an unexpected status code, or is listed in the sitemap with a trailing slash inconsistency, OTTO may not flag it for analysis.
- Automated posting quota reached: OTTO enforces a platform-wide automated posting quota. Reaching this quota can pause suggestion generation for one or more projects, including the homepage.
🛠️ What You Can Do
- Check your homepage URL for redirect or format issues. In a browser, visit both https://yourdomain.com and https://yourdomain.com/ and confirm both resolve to the same page with a 200 OK status (you can use a free HTTP status checker tool). If the homepage redirects to a subdirectory or www variant, OTTO may be attributing the page to a different URL. Ensure the URL in your sitemap exactly matches the canonical homepage URL you expect OTTO to analyse.
- Confirm your automated posting quota has not been reached. If your plan's automated posting limit has been reached, suggestion generation may be paused across your projects. Contact our support team to confirm your current quota status and to request a manual review of the affected homepage.
- Contact support with the following details ready: your project name, the exact homepage URL, any redirect behaviour you observed, and whether the issue affects multiple pages or only the homepage. This allows our team to investigate the detection or quota issue directly on your account.
