Hi Christy,
I'll watch it now - thanks for the response!
We are reviewing our creative / PR agency and are intending to use our GSC data as a way to assess their performance...
I indexed a new page last week and it ranked 1st
The page is still live, still registering sessions in analytics, registering activity in search console
Why is it no longer present for the keyword in ranked first for on Friday?
When making content pages to a specific page; should you index it straight away in GSC or let Google crawl it naturally?
Hello Linda,
Thank you for your help. This was great advice!
Thanks,
Cieron

With generic product like screws, for example what is best practice when writing descriptions? It's tough writing unique content for something when the only difference is lengths
100% agree.
If we could track more than just three that would be a GREAT improvement.

Reading up it seems like there's complete free reign to enter what you want in the meta description and they are not considered a direct ranking signal
However I have added contact numbers to the meta descriptions for around 20 reasonably high ranking pages for my company and it seems to have had a negative effect (taken screen grabs and previous rankings)
More strangely when you 'inspect' the page the meta description features the desired number yet when you find the page in the serps the meta description just does not feature the number (page has been cached and the description does not carry on)
I'm wondering whether such direct changes are seen as spam and therefore negative to the page?
