How to Manually Control your Page Snippets
The generation of the descriptions [snippets] which appear under a page in the search results is totally automated. This generation uses the content on a page plus references to it that appear on other sites.
The source that is used to generate snippets is Open Directory Project (ODP). Many site owners have desire to be to able to request without using the ODP for generating snippets, so from this time on, all you have to do is add a meta tag to your pages.
Use the following tag: META NAME=”ROBOTS” CONTENT=”NOODP”
Not all search engines support this meta tag. At the moment Google is the only one that officially runs it.
Google on using this tag:
‘After you added this info to your page, it will take some time for changes to your snippets to take place. Once your pages are recrawled, you are going to see updated snippets’.
