I'm working for an SEO agency and we are doing work for a client to create and optimise meta descriptions for their site. The CMS was configured by one of their developers and includes a tab devoted to SEO, including options for meta titles, noindex tags, indicating canonical URLs as well as meta descriptions.
With the other sections they are sent to live correctly but the meta descriptions won't show in any crawls or SERPs.
Anyone know anything about this, or is does it just sound like the developer who configured the SEO tab hasn't done it correctly?
Apologies if this sounds silly, first time I've ever used this CMS.
Thanks for the response. Here is the options it gives me to input the data:
So when I enter the meta descrption into the accompanying box and deploy the changes it appears to be saved and deployed, but any crawl I do of the site shows that there are no meta descriptions entered, and they don't appear in the HTML source code. I think it may be an error in how the SEO tab was configured by the developer originally, but figured I'd try my luck here in case it was something I was doing wrong.
If you use a CMS for the site (for example, WordPress), then you can change meta tags using special plugins.
In my practice, I use the Yoast SEO plugin and seo tool for technical website monitoring https://sitechecker.pro/website-monitoring/, where each page has its own meta tags settings.
SEO Meta Descriptions

Hi Conor
I think there is some issue with razor code of the view that renders the pages.
Can you try to find a SEO metadata view that renders the metatags and show here? we will find the issue together.
Thanks,
Alex

Conor, do you have access to the code of the site?
