I am writing this post as a result of my lack of due diligence. I am usually good at checking the important parts of a website to make sure everything is working and correct, but this little tiny thing that I forgot to check, went unnoticed until today.
So here I am, testing out some search engine ideas for my website, and I noticed in Google search that the description for howbits was way off, in fact it was nothing like what I had put into the all in one SEO plugin. So off I go, back to my website to investigate this weird issue and come to find out, when I changed website design I had forgotten to remove the default meta description and keyword code for the theme.
I learned that, all in one SEO loads it’s meta tags after the themes header information, so if a meta tag is used before all in one SEO meta tags, the first meta tags are shown and not the later ones. As a result all in one SEO description was not showing up, and my website description was the default blog description.
