FAQ

Have any questions?

A meta description is a short text summary of a specific page on your website. Search engines like Google display it in search results. A good meta description can improve your keyword ranks.

You can use a variety of methods to check all the meta descriptions on your site, ranging from manual checks in your code or CMS to specially designed tools like Morningscore's Meta Description Checker.

We analyze the information about your webpage that appears in search results. We look at things like the length of your meta descriptions or whether you forgot to write one and then show this information to you.

To improve your meta description, first check for these key points: It should be short, around 120-150 characters, so it doesn't get cut off in search results. Make sure it matches the content of your page, is different from other pages, includes important keywords to show its relevance, and has a clear call to action to encourage clicks.

In short, make sure that your meta description is written in a short, factful and attractive way, since this is what users see on Google below the title and link.

Meta descriptions themselves are not a direct ranking factor for Google. Meta descriptions do not influence your page's position in search results as such. However, meta descriptions are crucial for click-through rates (CTR) as visitors may decide whether to click on your page or not based on how good your meta description is. And the more clicks you have, the higher your rankings are. But it's important to note that CTR alone does not directly increase rankings.

If you don't provide a meta description, search engines like Google will create one for you from your page's content. The problem is that Google might not always capture your page's main points and write your meta description in an appealing way that encourages clicks. So it's better to write your own meta description to clearly convey your message and attract more visitors.

When writing meta descriptions, avoid characters like quotation marks that might cut off your text, and special characters or emojis that can look odd. Stay away from overly salesy language, keyword stuffing, or filler words that don't say much, and make sure your meta description exactly matches the content of your page and the search intent users have. Also, don't use all caps 🙂  Instead, aim for short, clear descriptions that make people want to click on your page.

You should update your meta descriptions whenever there are significant changes to your page content. Additionally, it's a good practice to review and refresh your meta descriptions periodically to ensure they remain accurate, relevant, and compelling to users.

Yes, all your meta descriptions must be unique for each page. Google can punish you for massively duplicating meta descriptions.

To monitor the performance of your meta description, you can track click-through rates from search results. You can also experiment with different descriptions to find the most effective ones and utilize special search result features like featured snippets.

If your meta description is longer than 160 characters it won't be displayed properly in Google search results. This can reduce the effectiveness of your meta description in encouraging visitors to click on your link.
