We’ve enhanced our embed code functionality to improve accessibility for users with assistive technologies. You can now add a title to your embedded content so visitors may understand better what your content is about. Adding titles to your embedded content is crucial for accessibility. It allows screen readers and other assistive technologies to convey the purpose of the embedded content to users with disabilities, improving their overall experience as well as your website’s accessibility scores.

Important Note: To utilize this latest Ion feature, you must replace the existing embed code on your web page with the newly generated code. Simply generating the new code is not sufficient; you must implement it on your site.
Best Practices for Embed Titles
Be concise and descriptive: The title should accurately reflect the content of the embed in a few words.
Use keywords: Include relevant keywords that help users understand what the embedded content is about.
Avoid generic titles: Don’t use generic titles like “Embedded Content” or “iFrame.”
The embed title can include blanks, special characters, and there are no character limits. However, refrain from using double quotes.
