Search engines cannot detect the right SEO text from Webflow.
It’s supposed to be this:
DuckDuckGo and Ecosia get this:
which is what the first plain text on the homepage used to say.
Google shows outdated SEO text from the other day, and that’s also what it shows for my Twitter page for some reason:
That’s not even mentioning the fact that it all seems to ignore the space, I have to type the search term in speech marks to get it to actually search for what I typed which should not be necessary, and the fact this specific text doesn’t do anything so I have to type “el has website” to get to it. None of the subpages even show up. Ever. No matter what I search for.
This is still going wrong. Now I look up the page for one of my music subpages and it’s all wrong in a different way. Disregarding the fact I looked up Dehumanised and it’s giving me Intonation is Anger To You, it’s supposed to be giving me this:
It’s pulling the alt-text from the pissing artwork in the ‘other releases’ section that’s on every music release subpage.
If I actually look up IIATY on any given search engine, Presearch & Google show the rich-text description that’s visible on the webpage, which, needless to say, I did not set to be the SEO…
All you can do is to control the HTML of your page, and how you promote your site on the internet. Google will still represent SERP listings however it chooses and that is changing a lot this year with AI.
You might research current SEO guidance, but in truth, no one knows what the best approach is until the AI install dust settles.
Note that your SERP is showing the webflow.io staging site, which isn’t helping your SEO either.
