Title/Meta Description Issues

    I built a new WP site with Divi, and have completed individual Page Title & Meta Descriptions on all pages, however indexing has just pulled an excerpt from the pages in some cases.
    I’ve edited the Titles/Descriptions in Gutenberg editor (right hand Rank Math panel), on your FB page I’ve been sent screenshots of Rankmath plugin editing at bottom of page but I don’t see that for some reason.
    Can you access my site & show me how to update the pages or where the issue is?
    It’s the Contact Us page & the Book Now page that we are having meta description issue with.

    Hi Brad,

    Can you please check when the Google cache was updated for that page?
    1. https://i.rankmath.com/9q6X0H
    2. https://i.rankmath.com/R8N0Uh

    If the cache date is from before adding the new meta description, then you just have to wait for Google to re-crawl and re-index the page with the new info. If the date is after you made the changes, the next step is to check if your title/description is properly set up in the page source:

    If it matches your settings, there is nothing else you can do as Google shows the title/description tag according to the search intent.

    The best you can do is optimize your meta tags to try and match the intent of the search/keyword.

    This section sheds light on that:

    “Why the search result title might differ from the page’s tag” </p> <p>On your Book Now page, we can edit the meta description just fine: <a href="https://i.rankmath.com/jFKaWt" rel="nofollow">https://i.rankmath.com/jFKaWt</a></p> <p>Hope that helps. If you have any further question(s), please let us know. Thank you.
