Wordpress and description in search engines

Hi ... I have noticed something with Google in all my wordpress sites which is the description is always been taken form the bottom of the page like this :

karaoke Machines :: Home Karaoke Toronto Canada
Karaoke Machines. Leave a Reply. Name (required). Mail (will not be published) (required). Website. Blog Map Karaoke Machines Toronto Canada WordPress.
www.homekaraoke.ca/karaoke-blog/karaoke-machines/



MSN is better a little bit some of them form the meta description and the other from the bottom also :

karaoke Machines :: Home Karaoke Toronto Canada
Karaoke comes from the Japanese word ‘kara’ and ‘one’, meaning ‘empty’ and ‘orchestra ... Blog Map Karaoke Machines Toronto Canada WordPress
www.homekaraoke.ca/karaoke-blog/karaoke-machines


anything to do with the class or div ........
any Ideas

 

Yeah that can be really annoying. You can try using the Optional Excerpt before you save the post, its right under the editor. Just write a description in the excerpt box and it show as the description.

You can also get pluggins to fix it but I am not sure whats the best, hopefully someone here can recommend a really good one.

 

I didn t try this before, but if u check my page you will see that is I have insert description tag in my <header>
and the thing is that why Google does it like this for Wordpress
there is a possibilty that Google view it like this when we use site: but for the SERPs it is gonna be different and that is what I have noticed with some results

 

To be honest I am not fully sure but I have seen it happen with ordinary sites as well.

 

Do you have the description meta tag in your blog? If you don't this would help get rid of the text it uses for your listing in the search engines. You can also make each page description different, by adding some php code in the title and description tags.

 

Hey Darren!

Any chance would you have that code that you use?


and would you believe I am still working on your links?

 

Ohhh, don't know if that's possible - top secret information I'm giving you now

<title><?php if(is_home()) : ?><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> <?php bloginfo('description'); ?></title><?php else : ?><?php wp_title('', display); ?> Add a keyword term here</title> 
<?php endif; ?>
<meta name="description" content="<?php wp_title('', display); ?>.  Your blog description here." />

PHP:

Hope this helps.

 

Top notch Darren I really appreciate it.
