How do websites display product attributes listed with their meta descriptions in Google SEPRs?
-
If you take a look at this SERP for "boys costumes" you can see that Amazon, HalloweenExpress and Target all have attributes listed such as "Products 1-25 of 500" or Kids Legolas _Costume. _
These are getting blended with their meta descriptions. How are they doing this? Anyone see any lifts in ranking or CTR by doing this?
Thank you!

I have seen this happen on e-commerce sites that don't have meta descriptions on the category pages. Often "Products 1-25" is the first text on the page and google will pull that as part of the meta description.

Yes, thank you. I just dug in a little more. Here is a good overview: http://blog.crowdint.com/2011/09/27/better-seo-with-rich-snippets-for-e-commerce.html

I believe people are getting these types of listings by using Google's Merchant Center for selling their products.

I don't know what exactly this is, but you can implement useful snippets of information, like price, rating, reviwe counter with schema.org. I personally haven't got any long time experience with it but it is said to lift CT. This should be true as users searching for items with reviews for example can find clues that here they will find some.

Meta description not showing in search results
Hi, One of my client's websites is not showing its Meta descriptions in search results. I've looked at the html and have noticed that they are using ' rather than " around the description tag (see below) <meta name="<a class="attribute-value">description</a>" content='<a class="attribute-value">Student Accommodation in Portsmouth or Southampton - Fully Furnished Studios, Close to the Universities. All Inclusive Rent with WiFi. Going Fast, Book Now!</a>' /> Is this likely to be the problem, or am I missing something very obvious? The website is http://www.unilife.co.uk/ Many thanks, Ben

Should I include a meta description for my tags on posts
Hi Our crawl report detects that we have not put in a meta description for any of the tags we have used on our blog. (total tag words we have used is around 70). We have however, put a full description of each of our categories, do we really need to put a description for each of the tags we use? Will this really help us with SEO? Also can tags on posts be the same as the keyword your trying to rank the post/article about? For further information We are using Yoast.
