It's all going to depend on your CMS, but if you are looking to understand what is being referenced, right click on a page on your site and select view source, the search for meta. The meta property description is what should be there (almost all CMS's allow you to edit this). Your page title should be much shorter, and you shouldn't have multiple pages with the same title. Again, nearly every CMS makes this very easy to edit.

Hi,
If you want to add a sort of meta description template then you'll have to use a plugin, or use some php to create your meta description in the head. Like using your page title and category - "We've got all the news on category, read post title on website name"
But what actually happens in SERPs when you have no description is the section of your page which contains the keyword is used as the description, giving you another eye-catching bolded keyword. Will those uniform meta descriptions templates help your click through rate as much as a bolded keyword, which you know the searcher has typed into the search bar? Probably not.
You should focus your efforts on your highest performing pages and add unique meta descriptions enticing searchers to click through to your site, working your way through to pages which perform less well. Try using a spider such as Screaming Frog to crawl your site and show you the titles and descriptions of all your pages together. It has a nice little tool built in to preview what your page would look like in Google SERPs, and you can get a feel for what a searcher will see.
Hope that helps,
Tom

Hi there,
Missing meta descriptions mean your pages do not include the meta description tag, or it's empty. Depending on which CMS you’re using you could find a plugin to help you quickly add titles and descriptions to pages. If you’re using wordpress as many people are then Yoast will be your best bet, as it’s bulk title and description editor will let you quickly fix these issues: https://yoast.com/wordpress/plugins/seo/
You will be able to find plugins for different content management systems which do the same thing with a quick Google.
If your site is made up of static pages you’ll need to add a unique meta description to each page, remembering it should be below 160 characters to fit neatly underneath your page title in SERPs, like this:

Hope that helps,

Does this site have a duplicate content issue?
Google WMT is showing me only 2 short meta descriptions under "HTML Improvements" but I believe http://www.customgia.com may have a content duplication issue. Numerous keywords are used repeatedly across many product descriptions. To make matters worse, every product page has a "Design It!" button that sends the user to a flash-based jewelry designer in which they can edit the product's appearance. I'm not sure if these "designer pages" are adding unnecessary and potentially damaging duplicate content but it's certainly a possibility. There are many items on this site that are similar to one another but not the same. The product description tend to use the same phrases over and over again - words like crystal, Swarovski, beaded, design it, customize, change, pearl, glass beads, iridescent, pearl, drop earrings are used a lot. What I'm stuck on is whether or not I should be focusing on a content duplication issue as the primary SEO problem or if there is something bigger. Thank you for any assistance you can provide!

How to fix keyword self-cannibalization?
page in question: www.bison-builders.com/lots-plans/bison-meadows-lots-1-6/ This page is the landing page for 6 custom home lots, available via Bison Builders. I fixed the overstuffing of 'Bison Meadows', it was on all image title, alt, etc. Should be right around 15. We are using 'Bison Meadows' as a keyword, because that's the name of the custom community. I don't want to change the names of the links, and I don't want to change the name of the keyword. How do I fix this self-cannibalization? FYI, I was thinking of directing all canonical URLs for individual pages to this page, but will wait til I know how to fix this first... Thank you! Avoid Keyword Self-Cannibalization Easy fix <dl> <dt>Cannibalizing link</dt> <dd>"Bison Meadows Lot 1", "Bison Meadows Lot 2", "Bison Meadows Lot 3", "Bison Meadows Lot 4", "Bison Meadows Lot 5", and "Bison Meadows Lot 6"</dd> <dt>Explanation</dt> <dd>It's a best practice in SEO to target each keyword with a single page on your site (sometimes two if you've already achieved high rankings and are seeking a second, indented listing). To prevent engines from potentially seeing a signal that this page is not the intended ranking target and creating additional competition for your page, we suggest staying away from linking internally to another page with the target keyword(s) as the exact anchor text. Note that using modified versions is sometimes fine (for example, if this page targeted the word 'elephants', using 'baby elephants' in anchor text would be just fine).</dd> <dt>Recommendation</dt> <dd>Unless there is intent to rank multiple pages for the target keyword, it may be wise to modify the anchor text of this link so it is not an exact match.</dd> </dl> <a class="more expanded">Minimize</a>
