Meta content does not change and remains the old text in the search engine

Hello,

I’m sorry to hear that you’re experiencing this issue with your meta content not reflecting the changes you’ve made in the Preview Snippet Editor. It can be frustrating when the changes you’ve made don’t show up as expected in the search engine results.

One possible reason for this could be that Google has not yet re-crawled and re-indexed your page with the updated meta content. To check when Google’s cache was last updated for the page, you can follow these steps:

1. Perform a search for your page on Google.
2. Click on the small, downwards-pointing arrow next to the domain.
3. Click on “Cached” to view the details, including the date of the cache.

If the cache date is from before adding the new meta description, then you just have to wait for Google to re-crawl and re-index the page with your new updated meta title and description.

It’s also important to note that Google sometimes chooses to show a different meta title/description for your search keyword. This can happen when Google ignores the custom meta information altogether and shows something from the page’s content that matches the search intent better.

If you’ve already checked these details and are still experiencing issues, please let us know, and we’ll be happy to assist you further.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
