Frequently asked questions
What is a meta description?
A meta description is an HTML attribute that provides a brief summary of a web page's content. It appears as the snippet beneath the page title in search engine results. While meta descriptions don't directly affect rankings, they significantly impact click-through rates, a compelling description can mean the difference between a user clicking your result or a competitor's.
How long should a meta description be?
The ideal meta description length is about 150 to 155 characters, and anything from 140 to 158 works well. Google typically truncates descriptions longer than about 155 to 160 characters with an ellipsis. Descriptions shorter than 70 characters may not be informative enough to earn clicks. Aim for 150 to 155 characters to make full use of the space while ensuring your full message displays in search results.
Should meta descriptions include keywords?
Yes, include your primary keyword in the meta description. When a user's search query matches words in the meta description, Google bolds those words in the search results, making your listing more eye-catching. However, the keyword should appear naturally, don't stuff keywords. Focus on writing a compelling description that happens to include the keyword.
