Meta descriptions do not directly affect rankings, but they influence whether people click. A better description can increase traffic without a ranking change.
What a good meta description does
- Summarises the page accurately.
- Shows the benefit to the searcher.
- Encourages a click.
Tips
- Keep it concise so it is not cut off.
- Include the main keyword naturally.
- Use active language.
- Add a clear call to action where suitable.
- Make each one unique.
Match intent
For informational searches, promise a clear answer. For commercial searches, highlight benefits and differentiators.
Search engines may rewrite
Search engines sometimes show other text from the page. Well-written descriptions that match the page are more likely to be used.
Test and review
Identify pages with good rankings but low click-through rates and rewrite their titles and descriptions.
