Sometimes our meta description being displayed is not ours?

David - This incorrect meta description does not appear anywhere on our website or anywhere on our Google+, social sites, etc.

Old indexed content??

Can you provide exactly what your seeing? (as in the full meta description that you think is incorrect and what it should be?)

This is what i see when viewing markup on your homepage, but with the above info i have no idea if thats correct or not

Hi Toby - Please see the image in my first comment above. This includes screenshot of both variations.

Ah, completely missed the attachement.

I'll poke about and see if i can spot anything

Doubtful. This was not on the old website. I'm told it was never used. See below, the wording is awkwardly worded, which makes me think it was a poor translation or something. Not sure.

"Manufactures a fencing system to protect pool systems from children."

Hmm i cant see anything funny going on, this is essentually what googlebot should see when viewing the page. If you'd been hacked i would expect to see the wrong description here.

If the site has been live a week, you might just be in a bit of a blip. Best thing i can suggest is request a reindex / new crawl in GWMT and wait it out. Google can take 3 ~ 4 weeks to update listings properly when meta information changes (in my experiance atleast)

Ok. Will do.

Any recommendation as far as those 30+ backlinks from those link farm sites? It is strange that those are the only websites that include that incorrect meta description.

[N1ghteyes]

As with any backlinks you dont want, if you cant request removal you should disavow them in GWMT

Good idea. Thanks for the help!
