Hi, Matt.
Thanks for clarifying that.
I've always, in dynamic database driven websites, had to meta description populated with the first 160 characters of the main copy on the page.
Is this a good idea?
It seems the most ethical way to do things and the most logical when a meta description can't be written manually because of time or technical constraints.
Thank you.
Mike.
Loved it. I found it really informative. I have used it intuitively and seen my blog results improve.
what exactly do you do?
great thanks to matt
Thank you! very informative.
I've been putting meta descriptions on my home pages and not on other pages. It seems effective to let the search engines populate effective descriptions. Good video. I'm really loving the videos! Keep em going!
