Different snippet in Google for same page

[conversal]

Hello,

I have a question regarding the snippet of a specific case:

When i search the homepage by searching the business name, i find the correct snippet of the homepage (with the meta description that was entered).

If i search it via site:www. it still show the default meta description.

Has anybody had experience with this? Is there a way to change the snippet of site:www.? Does it influence SEO?

Thank you!

Hello,

Thanks for your reaction. The url's of both snippets are the same (https://www). Since these are the same url's there is no canonical url.

We have recently changed the meta description, so a recrawl does look like the best option.

Hi Jeroen (i think:-),

I agree with Packaging-Group as you mention you find both www and non www homepage on google means both are indexed and are considered different pages by Google.  Also if you would have a canonical on one of those pages pointing to the other Google most likely wouldn´t index it.

Since both pages, www and non www, have the same content they are both competing for rankings and are therefore not good for SEO.

You can do a 301 redirect on most server between www and non www to solve this issue.

Hope this helps and success

When you click on both links in the search results, do they both have "www" in the url? If they are different, then you likely have issues with www and non-www versions of your website both being indexed.

Is there a canonical url set on the page?

Have you recently updated your meta description? If so, manually submit the url in search console and see if the issue remains.
