    Exclamation google results shows old meta tag description

    Hi,

    I started a new site few weeks ago .Initially i forgot to update the default vbulletin meta tag keywords and descriptions and the site got submitted to google and indexed.

    Now recently i searched google with site:mydomain.com and it shows the following as description in search results page for most of my site main links
    This is a discussion forum powered by vBulletin. To find out about vBulletin, go to http://www.vbulletin.com/ .
    I have updated the meta tag keywords and descriptions a week ago but still this is not updated in google results.

    I even deleted the sitemap and resubmitted but no luck yet.


    How do i get these updated with the latest information from my site? Will it take time ?

    Appreciate your valuable replies.

    Thanks

    It is entirely up to google how long it will take. As long as you are correct now, it should clear it self out in due time.

    It may take 3-5 days or 2weeks. But from my experience it doesn't take any longer than that.
