Blog: Meta Description Optimization

Your meta description hugely impacts getting users to click on your site from search engine results pages (SERPs). Meta descriptions are HTML attributes that concisely summarize a web page's content in about 160 characters. They appear directly below the blue clickable links in search engine results pages (SERPs), influencing whether searchers will click on your site.

A compelling meta description can improve click-through rates. According to a study by Ignite Visibility, over 6 out of 10 respondents said the description had the most significant impact on their decision to click a result. On the other hand, weak meta descriptions can negatively impact click-throughs and prevent you from capitalizing on that free organic traffic from search.

This post will explore what makes a good meta description and provide tips to write ones that convince searchers that your page contains the answers they seek.
