While meta descriptions aren't a direct ranking factor, they are your "ad copy" in search results. A good description sells the click.

    It proves to the searcher that your page has the specific answer they are looking for.

  • Bolded Keywords

    Google bolds terms in the description that match the user's query, catching their eye.
