Hello,
I’m sorry to hear that your page descriptions are not showing correctly on Google search results. This issue can be frustrating, but there are a few things we can check to address this problem.
-
Check Google’s Cache: Sometimes Google may not have re-crawled and re-indexed your pages with the updated meta descriptions. You can check this by entering cache: followed by the full URL of your page into the search bar. If the cache date is from before adding the new meta description, you may need to wait for Google to re-crawl and re-index the page with the updated information.
-
Google’s Discretion: Google sometimes chooses to display a different meta title/description based on what it believes is more relevant to the search query. This can include content from the page that matches the search intent better.
-
Alternative Titles: Google may use alternative text provided on your page if it deems it more relevant. You can review the sources Google uses for generating alternative titles in their Search Help Community.
If you have already checked these points and the issue persists, please feel free to reply to this ticket, and a human agent from our support team will assist you further.
Thank you for reaching out to us, and we appreciate your patience in resolving this matter.
