While I am trying to add SEO properties into my sharepoint 2013 site by following this article, But here the Edit Seo Properties link is coming as disabled. But the site is a team site not a publishing site.

Now I did not find a solution how to enable the link.

But I got a solution how to directly open the SEO properties page and update the SEO properties.

Below is my site URL

http://win-pfcp2dgt8di/sites/EnjoySharePoint/SitePages/Home.aspx
