My hypothesis is that because I all the most important UN/LOCODE info in the title & description, nobody clicks on the page anymore. So let's swallow my pride and make the title of the details page more clickbaity. Something like this:
<?php
$is_search_engine = preg_match('/bot|crawl|slurp|spider/i', $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);
if ($is_search_engine) {
$title = "UN/LOCODE NLRTM: Where it is, its functions, coordinates and more";
} else {
$title = "NLRTM: Rotterdam - ZH - Netherlands | UN/LOCODE info";
}
echo '<title>' . $title . '</title>';
?>
