Descriptions appearing for review star Rich Snippets
-
Hello,
We recently added the review star markup to our website:
If you search Esplendido hotel in Google, you'll see us appear: https://www.i-escape.com/esplendido-hotel
Google appears to be picking up the actual review and using it as the description in SERPs. Is there a way we can revert this back to the old description? Happy to keep as is but it is too long as it is according to Google?
Thanks all,
Clair

Super, thank you. I thought I was going crazy.
I didn't realise Google now serves different descriptions based on search intent.

It's picking up exactly what you have as the description... You should change your meta description if you want something else to display.

Should you give all the posts in a Forum an unique description? Or let it empty so Google can make one with the crawled keywords .... ...
To make all descriptions for all forum posts unique is a hell of a job.... One option is to crawl the first 165 characters and turn these automaticly into the meta description of the page.

If Google thinks the meta description is not suitable for the search query, Google will make a own description. In this case all te meta descriptions are unique, like the Google Guidlines want you to do. How will Google think off the fact when we delete the meta description tag so Google will make all the descriptions by herself?0 -
