Why is the meta description not the same as in the index?

[U-Digital]

Hi all,

When I search for keywords concerning "little wannahaves", the meta description in attachment 1 appears. This is however not the meta description I gave in. When I search for "site:littewannahaves.nl" the right meta description appears, see attachment 2. Does anyone know how why these two differ and how I can fix this? According to webmaster tools there should not be any error.

Thanks in advance!

Hi, This is a good one. The description showing in the serp's is depended on the keyword people are looking for, the metadescription and the content on the page.

Google decides what best fits to the keyword. If the metadescription fits in, Google will show that. if not, Google will search the content for that fits best at the keyword in the search.

In your screens you search for little wannahaves, but in your description there is no use of "little wannahaves"

so google is searching your content for a match with "little wannahaves"

put little wannahaves in your description. I also advice you to shorten your description tot 150 characters.

Grtz, Leonie
