Hi Everyone
Its polesandblinds.com newbie here again, I've Just been in Webmaster tools and see my site has:
- 278 Duplicate Meta Descriptions
- 13 Long Meta Descriptions
- 4 Short Meta Descriptions
- 304 Duplicate Title Tags
We are Using Magento version. 1.6.0.0, It seems that our description content which is unique per page (200 to 300 words) is somehow getting put into the meta description, which I confirmed when I viewed the source code, however its not showing in the meta description boxes in magento. I would say its been like this since the re-launch of the site in December 2012.

My BIG worry is how Google views this and what effects it may have or had on a site. My site has taken quite a big hit on rankings since the Google updates.
I'm really looking forward to your responses good or bad.
Many Thanks Jonathan
