Meta Description not displaying in Google
-
Hi Mozzers,
I have a client that wants to change the way the meta description for some of his pages is being displayed.
I've tried using the NOOPD and NOYDIR tags and its not worked.
This isn't the client but perform this search in Google.ie -
"accommodation newry daft"
See how Daft.com (2nd results down) has the text "10+ items" in the description- my client has this as well as do many other competitors but its not present in the meta description tag.
Anyone know how to get rid of this and get the good old meta descrition in the SERPs?
Thanks
BUsh

It is something Google is doing, and I've seen other complaints about it here as well. As far as I know, there's nothing you can do about it.

Sudden disappearance from google organic ranking
I have been ranked in top 5 for all relevant search terms for years. I have been in business for 25 years and am modestly speaking the best in our field. The name of my company is "Alaska Yacht Charters" and suddenly I have disappeared from Google search. Google "alaska yacht charters" and I am nowhere to be found. This all occured within days of my suspending my adwords account which I felt I didn't need because of my great organic ranking. What has happened?Geoff Wilson www.alaskanyachtcharters.com

My text does not show up in Google
Hi there. I've got an urgent question I hope someone can help me with. I've made a website (www.tonyharrismakingcents.com.au) with a few content pages. I don't get a lot of traffic. All my pages are scrawled and I don't see any errors. However, when I copy an entire paragraph and Google it, it does not show up in the search results. This makes me believe that the pages are not scrawled correctly. Only when I search for the exact paragraph by putting it between "", the website shows up on the results page. What can be the reason for this? Thanks for your help..It's much appreciated.
