Meta Tags description

    Hello there.

    I am working on version 2.0 of my store.
    Everything is up to date.
    For now it is “comming soon” mode.
    I’m in the chapter “basic seo settings before go live”.
    I have activated the option to discourage search engines.
    However, 3 products “escaped” into Google and were indexed.
    That’s how I discovered, that the meta description is not displayed correctly. More precisely, it displays something else.
    That is:

    I use the “Woocommerce Single Product Page Customizer” module. It displays under the product description, in a new tab (for all products in the store), a small disclaimer, through which attention is paid to the correct use of the product, reading the manual,…

    For all three products that were not indexed on Google, “site:mysite.com” appears on the check as the description of this added disclaimer.
    As a variable in the settings, I use global %excerpt%

    At the same time, using a google-chrome extension (seo-minion, which also works if only the admin sees the page), things are displayed correctly, both in the seo analysis area and in the serp preview area.

    How could I solve this situation please? Another variable? A possibility of bypassing what this plugin displays, for rank math?…?…?

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math, and sorry for any inconvenience caused.

    Please check the URL using https://www.heymeta.com/ and see if it is showing the correct description that you added with Rank Math.

    However, it is a pretty common thing with Google these days. It happens with 70% of the results that even if everything’s fine, Google decides to show a different meta title/description for your search keyword, there is nothing you can do as Google sometimes ignores the custom meta info altogether and show something from the page’s content that matches the search intent better.

    You can refer to this guide for more information:

    I hope this helps. Looking forward to helping you.

    Hi.
    Many thanks for the prompt reply.
    OK. I understood this point.

    I immediately disabled idexing and put the website live for a moment.
    For that page, Heymeta shows the global meta description of the website.
    I did three more audits with other applications, live, and they look correct.

    However, they must be effective, a helpful solution.
    It will be strange and totally wrong when the website will be live, and I will have 14k of products with the same description, and the description is a warning.
    My added text is html. Maybe a new line to tell google, hey ..don’t index this. or something
    My settings seem ok, you can see this in the images, in the preview it looks ok.

    Hello,

    Yes, since the meta description is now properly set, it’s up to Google if they wish to acknowledge these changes. Just make sure that the description is optimized well for the desired keyword.

    Let us know when the website is fully live and if the issue persists after the next crawl. We are here to help you.

    Thank you.
