In this tutorial we will learn how to add Axis titles in Google Sheets. Adding descriptive and meaningful axis titles in Google Sheets is simple and can be done by using the Chart & axis titles option in the Chart editor. Two types of axis titles exist in charts, namely the horizontal axis title and the vertical axis title.
