Hi all

Ok there might be a simple answer to this but I can't work it out.

I have recently had a blog designed for me Blogging With PLR Content and I am having my 1st go at doing my own SEO. I have doen all the usuall basic stuff like submitting to search engines etc. It is on page 1 of google for certain search terms ie blogging with plr etc. and even has an alexa ranking.

However when using google tools i get a warning regarding short meta descriptions can anyone tell me where I can change this.

Thanks

  • These are in the header of your website. If you view the source of this forum page, you'll see this near the top:

    Code:
    <meta name="keywords" content="SEO,Question,question, seo,  SEO Question, internet marketing,affiliate marketing,search engine optimization,ebooks" />
<meta name="description" content="Hi all Ok there might be a simple answer to this but I can't work it out. I have recently had a blog designed for me Blogging With PLR Content and I" />
    You'll need to put some description on there relating to your page.

  • thanks mate

    I was looking at that, Below is the code of my header for the blog I can't work out where I put it.

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" <?php language_attributes(); ?>>
    <head profile="http://gmpg.org/xfn/11">
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>" />
    <title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> &raquo; Blog Archive <?php } ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title>
    <meta name="generator" content="WordPress <?php bloginfo('version'); ?>" /> <!-- leave this for stats -->
    <meta name="description" content="<?php bloginfo('description') ?>" />
    <meta name="keywords" content="" />
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>" type="text/css" media="all" />
    <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?> RSS Feed" href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" />
    <link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo('pingback_url'); ?>" />
  • If you're using wordpress just install the SEO all in one plugin, it creates dynamic meta data for each of your posts.. otherwise you could be stuck with the same description for each page, which isn't the best option for SEO.

    Best of luck.
  • Hi Mick

    i have the SEO plugin installed plus sitemap etc.

    The blog is about 3 weeks old it is on page one of google for certain search words and also has an alexa ranking.

    Considering this is my 1st attempt at seo I guess i should be quite pleased I just cant work out what to do regarding the short meta descriptions
  • What kind of words do you want to optimize for?

    I ask this because I'm affraid you are entering a too competitive market. Remember; if you optimize for words that are related to SEO, you're facing people with a huge amount of knowledge, experience, money and time.
  • hi Rick

    The blog is about using PLR content to Build a Blog so basically any words related to that rather than SEO
