WCAG 2.4.2 Page Titled Level A
Who this affects
The page has no title. Browser tabs, bookmarks, and screen reader page lists all show nothing useful.
How to fix it
Add a <title> that names the page and then the site, such as "Pricing - Acme".
How much work is it?
Usually a content edit. That is a rough guide for planning, not an estimate for your codebase. A single content edit repeated across a template is a template change.
What a person still has to check
Passing this rule does not mean 2.4.2 passes. Automation checks part of the criterion, and the rest is a judgement:
A person has to review this criterion against the site by hand.

Where this check comes from
This is an axe-core rule. We run axe in a real browser on every page we scan. Deque’s reference for document-title
Find out whether your site does this
A scan checks this rule on every page it visits, and shows you the code and a screenshot of each place it fires.
