Euro; Pound Sterling; US Dollar. £0.00. Your shopping cart is empty! Welcome visitor you can login or create an account.” even though in the settings>>store>>”Meta Tag Description:”, i have added the descritpion of the site.

Hope someone can help

Hello Michalis,

Unfortunately, you can’t tell Google anything :)

Here is what they say:

…Google will sometimes use the meta description of a page in search results snippets, if we think it gives users a more accurate description than would be possible purely from the on-page content…

Maybe, the problem with you, is that you are looking old Google cache. Sometimes it takes time, until they crawls your website and you get the new content in the search results.

Best,
ThemeBurn team
