Write meta descriptions for these pages:

[LIST PAGE TITLES AND TOPICS]

Audience: [AUDIENCE]

Each one should be 140 to 158 characters, include the primary keyword, promise a specific benefit and end with a light call to action. Give two options for each and flag any that are too similar.

Include the main keyword naturally and a clear reason to click.

What you will get

Two meta descriptions for each page you listed, each 140 to 158 characters with the main keyword, a specific benefit and a light call to action, with any too similar pairs flagged.

Why it works

The character range keeps the description from being cut off in most results. A specific benefit gives a searcher a reason to pick your link, and two options per page let you choose the stronger one. Flagging similar descriptions matters because pages that look the same in search make it harder for people to tell them apart.

Common mistake

The descriptions go over the length.

Fix: Ask it to show the character count after each one, and count it yourself on any that look long.

Also watch for
  • Every description ends with “Learn more”. Ask for a call to action that fits each page, such as “see the menu” or “get the checklist”.
  • They promise things the page does not have. Paste a short summary of each page and ask it to only promise what is on it.
Try a variation: write title tags too

Ask for a matching title under 60 characters for each page, with the keyword near the front.

Still not right? Reply with this

These pages get few clicks: [LIST]. Rewrite their descriptions with a more specific benefit, within the same length.
