The Sticky Block template fixes a card to the left hand side of the screen as the user scrolls down the page that provides an easy way to arrange and structure the content you always want in view as someone browses your web page. The Sticky Block can be used as navigation, promotional content, request for information (RFI) form, etc.

Page Titles
The Page Title is one of the most important element on the sticky block page. It is the first thing search engines "read" that tells them what your web page is about. Page Titles are the first item in the Content Area on the Sticky Block template. The Page Title will appear at the top of your page depending on the page options you select and in the site breadcrumbs.
Every page on your website should have a different page title because the content of every page of your website is different - or should be. There's no reason to have two or more pages with the same content.
