The Meta Descriptions

Having a meta description tag in your page helps when a relevant snippet can't be found on the page. The meta description report helps you find where these are missing, duplicated, or where there are issues.

Like all reports, this is the url of the page the description is found on.

This is the text extracted from the meta description on the page. It's handy to sort these, for example, to look for duplicates or to use the "Filter text..." filter to look for keywords being used.

This will list any issues the crawler found. Because it's quite subjective, this doesn't focus on things like length but things like having two meta descriptions on a page.
