I recently did a google search with the
only parameter being show everything from the boshdirect.com
domain. To do this, I simply went to google and entered
"site:boshdirect.com" as my search term. I noticed that the
descriptions for all my Joomla pages were the same thing. I decided
to take a look at the setting in the Joomla backend at Site >
Global Config > Meta and verified that the description entered
there was the exact same thing showing in google.
I then checked the source of some of the
pages via View > Source in my browser and noticed that the first
part of the meta description was what showed in google and my
Joomla backend. However, if I read the whole description I noticed
that the meta description I was entering in my content was being
appended to the global meta information. This really didn't make
sense to me that all my pages had the same information and probably
made even less sense to google and other search engines.
That being said, I decided to refine my global description and
keywords only to things that I thought were relevant across ALL
pages on my website. For example, the only global meta description
is now "Boshdirect by Josh Lyon" and my meta keywords are only the
highest level keywords like "technology", "automotive", etc that
match across the whole site.
I'll have to wait until Google reindexes my site to see how it
really looks, but I think it should be a good update. |
