    Description woes

    The Book Club Site - Powered by vBulletin
    TheBookClubSite.com book discussion. ... Default Style, ---- ambience, -- ambience_x.
    Contact Us - www.thebookclubsite.com - Archive - Top ...
    www.thebookclubsite.com/

    Those are my results when I type in thebookclubsite to google. Now...obviously I don't want that to be what my site is advertised as...so how do I change it? I have meta tags on...those don't seem to do the trick...what am I doing wrong here? This has been frustrating for me and I can't figure it out.

    Thank you!!!

    Hi Jon,

    Google is returning the words that are around that phrase. As it only occurs in your footer, it will always have those footer links around it.

    (You should really remove the 'Powered by vBulletin' from your page titles. AdminCP - Phrase Manager - search for "Powered by" (in phrase content), and change it to {1}. (Remove the "- powered by vbulletin" and save it).)
