    Hi

    I have made changes to my product “meta description” on yeost seo plugin.

    However I do not see the changes when i search the product on google. It’s been months and meta description does not change on google.

    I have a PDF screenshot of what I mean, https://docdro.id/8CcpQhY

    Could you help me on that?

    Thank you

    Did you resubmit your sitemaps via the search console on your Google search console account?

    May I know how I could do that? I have never done it before. Could you guide me by screenshots so that I could follow your steps.

    Thanks very much for your help.

    You searched for pomegranate juice singapore which means Google scans the index for that exact phrase. Google uses the search term to highlight information in search results which is why the meta description is different than what you entered into the plugin.

    To see the meta title and description without search term manipulation, use the site search operator followed immediately by the URL of your site.

    I meant that how I could resubmit my sitemaps via the search console on my Google search console account? So that the meta description seen by customers are what we have keyed into the plugin

    You can resubmit your sitemap with these steps:

    1. Login to Google Search Console here.
    2. Select your website property.
    3. Click on the sitemap ( /sitemap_index.xml ) near the bottom.
    4. Click resubmit in the upper right corner.

    Dear Mdm

    I have done that already. Does it mean that the meta description will be shown to customers when they search for “pomegranate juice singapore”?

    How does yoast seo help us achieve that?

    Also there are quite a lot of warnings. I have a screenshot to show you what I am referring to.

    If you are targeting the phrase “pomegranate juice singapore” and that exact phrase is in your meta description, Google should display your description. However, Google may decided to overwrite your description for better results.

    Please create a new thread for new issues. That way it’s easier for us to match replies with a specific problem. Thanks!
