This is weird, what's goin on here?..

6 replies
I recently threw up some new sites and they're indexed (sort of)..

When I type the url into google, I get a result, but it shows only the domain name (which links to my site) and not the site description or the url ..

Anyone know why?

Thanks in advance,

Bill

    Did you put in a meta description?

    Add all the meta tage properly. And update your sitemap.

    I think you guys may have hit the nail on the head with the meta tag suggestion. I'm using all in one SEO but am I right to assume that it only inserts titles, metatags etc. for the individual posts and not the blog as a whole?

    Only 1 blog out of my 7 that I recently published is displaying the url and I guess what you can call a description, although not really.

    In google, the description is appearing like this ..

    Where exactly do I go to insert the metatags? I'm guessing I make the edits in the header? ..

    Believe it or not, even without any metatags etc. that site is ranked number 1in yahoo for "exercises for shoulders" at the moment but I'm way back on page 4 in Google..

    Anyway, as you can tell, I'm not a wordpress guru so I really appreciate the help ..

    Thanks again,

      In the settings section for the plug-in there are spots for you to add your site title, description, tags, etc. You have to enter in those values.
