    Problem with my meta description in yahoo

    Hi!
    For some reason yahoo doesn't display my description meta tag.
    What could be the problem?
    thanks!

    Hi exee!

    The description is often, but not always, displayed on search engine results pages, so it can impact click-through rates.

    I used to believe that the purpose of the Meta description tag was twofold: to help the page rank highly for the words that were contained within it, as well as to provide a nice description in the search engine results pages (SERPs). However, today it appears that, similar to the Meta keywords tag, the information you place in this tag is *not* given any weight in the ranking algorithms of Google, and only a tiny amount of weight in Yahoo's.

        hi lisa

        I just want to say that google has changed its ranking algorithm and its appearing that its not giving any weight to meta tag description.
