Google description showing latest post excerpt
-
In doing a search for our website, The Tech Block, I realized that our description is not showing what we have in our Yoast settings, but rather the content from the slider:
What can I do to fix this?
-
After a lot of pain, we figure out some of the issues. Problem is that Google hasn't seemed to index everything we've fixed. My guess is that it's just a matter of time?
-
Hey I see you got it fixed! Good job! What was the issue?
-
I can't figure out for the life of me why that's happening. I have everything filled out properly in Yoast....
-
Google wont display it until they crawl your site again but when I go to your website thetechblock.com and clear my cashe and view your source (Ctrl U) there is now no description at all.
-
Hey Billy,
I've filled and published a description, for some reason it's not showing up in Google search...
-
Go here and scroll down to section 1.3 - this should walk you through it.
-
I don't see at all in the source code. The changes are published on Yoast...
Could really use some help.

---edit---
I checked the source of your site and the description tag is empty...
Do you need to publish your changes?

.xml sitemap showing in SERP
Our sitemap is showing in Google's SERP. While it's only for very specific queries that don't seem to have much value (it's a healthcare website and when a doctor who isn't with us is search with the brand name so 'John Smith Brand,' it shows if there's a first or last name that matches the query), is there a way to not make the sitemap indexed so it's not showing in the SERP. I've seen the "x-robots-tag: noindex" as a possible option, but before taking any action wanted to see if this was still true and if it would work.

Google Analytics - Custom Variables
Hi guys, I'd appreciate any advice with this one. At the moment I'm in the process of arranging a URL re-structure. I was wondering what the best way would be to track the performance of the old URLs against new ones? We will be ammending the URLs for any new property pages which go live on our website but leaving the old URLs in play for any old properties listed. We're taking this approach for the moment so we can conduct analysis on the change. It has been mentioned to me that placing a 'setvariable' in the code of pages with the old URLs and ones with the new URLs would be a way of tracking performance. However, my knowledge in this area is a little bit grey. Any advice? Cheers, Mark
