Why My Meta Description Appears in All Search Results?

solve-meta-descrition-issueThe next step towards better optimizing your Blogger blogs is to understand that several works are incomplete and Blogger has left its codes open for all to develop them. Thus thanks  to some programmers and SEO’s  most of Blogger bugs have been solved recently. One problem in default blogger templates is that your meta description appears below all your Post titles instead of Post description in search results. This badly effects your overall search rankings as same description that you have set for your homepage appears below all your posts. To address this issue I will jump straight on the solution.

PS: If you don’t know what Meta Description is then kindly read these posts first,

Best Blogger Meta Tag blogger-meta-tag

blogger-meta-tag Actually, the best Blogger meta tag that I am about to explain is not the best one because there may be other Blogger meta tags that are better than these Blogger meta tags, but for more attractive, I deliberately made the title so bombastic. Peace Sign Many people say that installing Meta tags is the old SEO technique and not necessary to do anymore. That may be right, but also not. To avoid confusing, we had better see the facts in the practice.
Here Kang Rohman typed the keyword Blogspot Tutorial in google.com. Below is the screenshot of the result:
blogspot-tutorial
As a result, Kang Rohman’s blog was ranked first (at the time this article was written). What shown in the search result were blog title and blog description, which should be installed with description meta tag. It shows the fact that meta tag installment is still needed as the one to support SEO.
According to what most SEO experts say, which Kang Rohman has read, the good blog description or the keywords should be different in every page, because if one page and the others have the same description, it will be considered as duplication. People say, search engines dislike any duplication, for instance, Google search engine.
Referring to the case, Kang Rohman tried to create Blogger description meta tag and the keyword that can be different in every page or popular term for it is Dynamic Blogger Meta tag.
Below is the basic code of Dynamic Blogger Meta tag :

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != &quot;item&quot;'> 
<meta expr:content='data:blog.pageTitle + &quot; - description&quot;' name='description'/> 
<meta expr:content='data:blog.pageTitle + &quot;, keywords&quot;' name='keywords'/> 
<b:else/> 
<meta expr:content='data:blog.pageName + &quot; - description&quot;' name='description'/> 
<meta expr:content='data:blog.pageName + &quot;, keywords&quot;' name='keywords'/> </b:if>

The real example of installing the code on Kang Rohman’s blog:

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != &quot;item&quot;'>
<meta expr:content='data:blog.pageTitle + &quot; - Tips and trick to easy blogging at blogspot also free download ebook and template&quot;' name='description'/>
<meta expr:content='data:blog.pageTitle + &quot;, blog tutorial,blogger tutorial,blogspot tutorial,blog templates,blogger templates,blogspot templates,blogger templates free,free blogger templates&quot;' name='keywords'/>
<b:else/>
<meta expr:content='data:blog.pageName + &quot; - Tips and trick to easy blogging at blogspot also free download ebook and template&quot;' name='description'/>
<meta expr:content='data:blog.pageName + &quot;, blog tutorial,blogger tutorial,blogspot tutorial,blog templates,blogger templates,blogspot templates,blogger templates free,free blogger templates&quot;' name='keywords'/>
</b:if>
The technique used is at the home page, the description consists of blog title and the description installed, while the keyword consists of blog title and the keywords installed.

description: Blog Tutorial - Tips and trick to easy blogging at blogspot also free download ebook and template
keywords: Blog Tutorial, Free blogger Templates and Sites Info, blog tutorial,blogger tutorial,blogspot tutorial,blog templates,blogger templates,blogspot templates,blogger templates free,free blogger templates

In the meanwhile, at the single post, the description is taken from blog post title and the description installed, while the keywords are taken from blog post title and the keywords installed.
For instance, if you are in the post page with the title as Fresh Revolution Premium template , the description and keywords would be like:
description: Fresh Revolution Premium template - Tips and trick to easy blogging at blogspot also free download ebook and template
keywords: Fresh Revolution Premium template, blog tutorial,blogger tutorial,blogspot tutorial,blog templates,blogger templates,blogspot templates,blogger templates free,free blogger templates

Remember that you will create a different title for every post you publish, so the description meta tag will also be different automatically. That’s why this meta tag is called Dynamic Blogger Meta tag Cool
