    Hi,

    view page source : there is 2 Title and 2 Description (home page)

    it looks like this:
    ( i add keywords and description in the header.php )
    <title> my site title </title>
    <meta name=”keywords” content=”my site keyword” />
    <meta name=”description” content=”site “my site description” />

    ( this is rank math SEO TITLES & META home page setting )
    <meta property=”og:title” content=”my site title”>
    <meta property=”og:description” content=”my site description”>

    1) would this cause any problem if both title and description in home page?

    2) Keywords in Title & Description > No keywords found in the page description, not sure why its said No keywords found in the page description.

    i already try to search but could not find answer how to fix it.

    Thanks.

    Hello,

    For your first question, no, it doesn’t cause any issue since the first title and description are for Google and the others are for sharing in social networks.

    For your second question, it means you should add your keyword in the Rank Math SEO description. I show you in a screencast how to do it: https://i.rankmath.com/Y3UCwX

    Looking forward to help you.

    Hi,

    Thank you for the video. That helps a lot.

    My theme is classified ad by default there is no home page in the wordpress all page section, i already get support from theme developer. everything work fine now.

    Just 2 more question:

    1) i want correct my first question, actually is 1 site title 2 description,

    it look like this:
    (header.php)
    <title> my site title </title>
    <meta name=”description” content=”site “my site description” />

    (rank math seo)
    <meta name=”description” content=”site “my site description” />

    every page have 2 <meta name=”description” content=”” />

    im not seo guy, just want to know is it good or bad having 2 meta description for seo? would like to hear your advice.

    2) SEO Analysis > Basic SEO > Common Keywords:

    One of the common keywords is city name but it show reversed, for example

    My page city name is NEW YORK, but in the common keywords is show YORK NEW.

    is this normal?

    Hello,

    It is not good to have two meta descriptions on your website since Google will take just the first one (in your case probably not the Rank Math one) so I would suggest you to keep just one.

    About reversed city name, Google sometimes does that kind of thing, it sometimes ignores the custom meta info altogether and show something from the page’s content that matches the search intent better.

    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 <title> tag

    Hope that helps. If you have any further question(s), please let us know. Thank you.

    Thanks for your reply.
