Metadata is data that applies to other data. This can seem confusing to some, so for an example, you may take a picture and save it digitally on your computer.

Other metadata can include creator information and licensing or legal rights related to a file’s use.

Originally, Above the Fold referred to print newspapers, and described everything on the top half of the front page.

In website design, Above the Fold refers to any elements that are visible at the top of a webpage, usually the site’s homepage, without having to scroll down.

Optimizing the design of your homepage above the fold can be important to make a good first impression and clarify the intent of your website for the user. However, on some mobile-first or app-based sites, other considerations present themselves, since scrolling for the majority of a page’s content is more expected on these platforms.
