Hey,

If you put this into Google- site:toricks.com

You will see all the meta descriptions are the same! How can I sort this?

I want it to just shoe the description on the product or something, the site is not wordpress or anything so please don't recommend plugins etc, Its really annoying at looks stupid ;-)

Thanks in advance !

Ricky

    Ricky,

    If you look at the source code for each page, the meta info is the same, as follows -

    <meta name="keywords" content="buy shoes online, biggest shoe shop, shoe comparison, womens shoes, ladies shoes, girls shoes" />
    <meta name="description" content="Tired of looking through lots of different websites for the perfect shoes? Well now you only need one site Toricks a girls Heaven" />

    Just edit this info on each page to what you want for that page.

    You say you're not using Wordpress. If it's a static site just open each page in a html editor (Or notepad) make changes to the source code and upload to server.

    It doesn't look like a static site though. Is it some sort of CMS platform?

    Hi yeah it is a custom CMS.

    Thanks that is a solution for the content pages :-)

    Only problem now is that the website has over 5000 products and they are stored in a DB how to I change theirs? I would like to just use the description of the product as the meta description, can I do this?

    Thanks

    Ricky

      Then you have 2 options:
      1. Talk to the author of that custom script and ask/tell them to modify the template files (I am almost 100% sure it has a header template for ALL the pages!) and to make the meta description a query to the DB to include the description of the product
      2. Do it yourself if familiar with the script
