Questions people ask

How long should a meta description be?+

About 120 to 155 characters. Long enough to sell the click, short enough not to be cut.

Does Google always use my description?+

No, it often picks text from the page that better matches the search. A good description still gets used most of the time.

Does the description affect rankings?+

Not directly, but a clear one gets more clicks, and clicks are what you are after.
