Why Meta Descriptions Matter for SEO
Meta descriptions are HTML meta tags that provide a brief summary of a webpage's content. They appear in search engine results below the title and can significantly impact click-through rates. While meta descriptions don't directly affect rankings, they influence whether users click on your result or a competitor's.
Best practices include keeping descriptions between 120-160 characters to avoid truncation, including relevant keywords naturally, using compelling language with calls to action, ensuring each page has a unique description, and accurately describing the page content. Well-crafted meta descriptions can increase organic traffic by improving your click-through rate from search results.
