It's all going to depend on your CMS, but if you are looking to understand what is being referenced, right click on a page on your site and select view source, the search for meta. The meta property description is what should be there (almost all CMS's allow you to edit this). Your page title should be much shorter, and you shouldn't have multiple pages with the same title. Again, nearly every CMS makes this very easy to edit.

Hi,
If you want to add a sort of meta description template then you'll have to use a plugin, or use some php to create your meta description in the head. Like using your page title and category - "We've got all the news on category, read post title on website name"
But what actually happens in SERPs when you have no description is the section of your page which contains the keyword is used as the description, giving you another eye-catching bolded keyword. Will those uniform meta descriptions templates help your click through rate as much as a bolded keyword, which you know the searcher has typed into the search bar? Probably not.
You should focus your efforts on your highest performing pages and add unique meta descriptions enticing searchers to click through to your site, working your way through to pages which perform less well. Try using a spider such as Screaming Frog to crawl your site and show you the titles and descriptions of all your pages together. It has a nice little tool built in to preview what your page would look like in Google SERPs, and you can get a feel for what a searcher will see.
Hope that helps,
Tom

i mean to ask that how to remove Missing Meta Description from multiple of pages( thousand of pages). This is dynamic pages of issues, so how can put meta description thousand of pages simultaneously?

Hi there,
Missing meta descriptions mean your pages do not include the meta description tag, or it's empty. Depending on which CMS you’re using you could find a plugin to help you quickly add titles and descriptions to pages. If you’re using wordpress as many people are then Yoast will be your best bet, as it’s bulk title and description editor will let you quickly fix these issues: https://yoast.com/wordpress/plugins/seo/
You will be able to find plugins for different content management systems which do the same thing with a quick Google.
If your site is made up of static pages you’ll need to add a unique meta description to each page, remembering it should be below 160 characters to fit neatly underneath your page title in SERPs, like this:

Hope that helps,

Fixing Index Errors in the new Google Search Console - Help
Hi, So I have started using the new Search Console and for one of my clients, there are a few 'Index Coverage Errors'. In the old version you could simply, analyse, test and then mark any URLs as fixed - does anyone know if that is possible in the new version? There are options to validate errors but no 'mark as fixed' options. Do you need to validate the errors before you can fix them?

Does MOZ do more than report after report?
Does MOZ do more than churn out report after report? I do appreciate the useful information about my keyword rankings and from the crawls - the report cards are great too. But I need my site analyzed. I need to know what about my blog as a whole is wrong. I did very well with google traffic until the summer when my traffic plummeted overnight due to a Google Panda update/tweak. I have been working really hard and I know I am doing the right things (I got 28K unique visitors this past month and people are sticking around) but I still get basically no organic traffic. Is there a feature in Moz that can tell me what is broken? Like an SEO Audit? I feel that there are things I am missing that are more technical and I don't know how to find out what they are.

Fixing large number of 404s
Hi Newbie SEO here.... I converted quite a massive site to wordpress (www.yourbusinesschannel.com). For a number of reasons, over 1000 pages were not converted and the URLs could not easily be preserved in any event I am now going to add these pages back by importing a large CSV into wordpress. However what is the best way to tell google that the pages are now back and at new addresses? Is it to submit a site map and get the site recrawled from scratch?
