Meta Description: How to Implement It?

[amnistech]

I'm pretty new to SEO and am starting to implement the knowledge that I've learned into the websites that I'm working on. The websites have already been created but without Meta-descriptions.

My problem is that when I try to implement a Meta Description it moves the whole website text and design. I am using Wordpress to manage and edit the sites.

Any help would be great.

Thanks!

All In One SEO Pack is another good free plugin that allows you to directly edit the meta description tag on each page

Hi Stuart,

A meta description shouldn't be visible on the page itself (although a piece of content can be used as description), but should be included in the head section of the html.

I can recommend installing a plugin like Yoast SEO for WordPress. This plugin makes it very easy to add a meta description to all your pages.

Good luck!

Hey,

Unless there is a specific reason for not using a plugin I would install Yoasts SEO plugin. It is much easier to manage all the meta stuff with.

Here is a link: http://yoast.com/wordpress/seo/

It's also totally free
