Why is there a Date in SERPs and not with other listings? See attachment for example... I have a website which is displaying the same thing. Why does this happen and is there a way to stop Google from doing that? Do I need to turn some setting off?
this is my problem i am doing more seo on my site but i cannot see the result on google.com search engine.
Yes fresh content... but why do other sites dont display the date? is it because they are static sites?
It looks like you're searching while you're logged in to your Google account. So, I would guess that the date you're seeing is the date of the last crawl.
ok this happens when google doesnt like your current meta description or you dont have one, try putting a proper one in, ive never seen it on any of my sites with concise and informative meta descriptions
This is not the fact. I can also see that date, while I am not logged in. Moreover that page is last cached on on 30 jun while cache is showing 8 June 2009. Actually google has fetched that date from your content. I am seeing Date in the right side of your page where you have listed most popular stories. Google is showing the latest date from the webpage as a mark of the latest information update date on that page. But I am not sure in which cases google shows date in search result listing. Because this result is not applicable with each site that consists of date on their page.
I can understand pulling the snippet when you don't have Meta content, but you piqued my interest with the "Google doesn't like it" idea. Are you talking about content that's too long? If that were the case the description would just get cut off. I'm just curious. If you wouldn't mind explaining the idea a little more.
