    Hi,

    When I search for my article on Google, the meta description does not appear (it only shows the address of my business) and it shows an old version of the title.

    Can you please advise me on how to correct these issues?

  • Hello,

    I’m sorry to hear about the issues you are facing with your meta description and title when searching for your article on Google.

    To address the problem of Google showing a different meta description and an old version of the title, there are a few steps you can take:

    1. Check Google’s Cache: Verify when Google last updated the cache for your page. If the cache date is before you made changes to the meta description, you may need to wait for Google to re-crawl and re-index the page with the updated information. Here is how you can check the cache date:

    2. Reasons for Different Meta Description: Google may choose to display a different meta description based on various factors such as relevance, quality, and search intent. Unfortunately, there is little you can do to ensure Google uses the exact meta description you’ve provided.

    3. Alternative Titles: Google might use alternative text from your page that they find more relevant and useful. If you believe the alternative title provided by Google is not suitable, you can let them know through their Search Help Community.

    For more detailed information on why Google might not display your meta description or title as expected, you can refer to this article.
