This is my first time to use Yoast SEO plugin in my website, I'm trying to add meta description to every pages and every post in my website.
When I search it on google, seems like the meta description does not show at all, instead google take the content from the website page as the meta description.
When I looked at the page source, there is a content that I set in Yoast SEO as my meta description
For keywords part that I put in my SEO, when I test it in SERPs, the keywords seems does not work at all, SERPs couldn't match the keywords that I enter with the keywords that already set in my SEO.
this is my website
I already change title tag in my page to be like this to match with the SEO
<title><?php if ( is_category() ) {
echo 'Category Archive for "'; single_cat_title(); echo '" | '; bloginfo( 'name' );
} elseif ( is_tag() ) {
echo 'Tag Archive for "'; single_tag_title(); echo '" | '; bloginfo( 'name' );
} elseif ( is_archive() ) {
wp_title(''); echo ' Archive | '; bloginfo( 'name' );
} elseif ( is_search() ) {
echo 'Search for "'.wp_specialchars($s).'" | '; bloginfo( 'name' );
} elseif ( is_home() || is_front_page() ) {
bloginfo( 'name' ); echo ' | '; bloginfo( 'description' );
} elseif ( is_404() ) {
echo 'Error 404 Not Found | '; bloginfo( 'name' );
} elseif ( is_single() ) {
wp_title('');
} else {
echo wp_title( ' | ', false, right ); bloginfo( 'name' );
} ?>
</title>
Is there any reference that can explain/help me to make the meta description work and the keywords?
Is there any settings that I need to change from the plugin section?
I also have a question for meta description template from the plugin page, do I just leave it blank or should I add some variables?
