I have a site which 2 keywords showing different meta description for the same URL. Both keywords exits in title and meta description. I can't find a way to fix it. Can any SEO guru advice please?

KEYWORD A | META DESCRIPTION DISPLAYED | URL A

KEYWORD B | Google VERSION META DESCRIPTION DISPLAYED | URL A
 
If you´re using an SEO plugin make sure it´s NOT overwriting everything for you.

We are using Yoast, but for certain keyword, Google is showing correct version. But that particular keyword, Google isn't.

If Google thinks it can provide a better description for that page for the particular search term - it will do so. One way of trying to force a description is to use exact text from the page. Not guaranteed, but helps.

Hey,
I am also facing the same problem. Google is not showing the meta description of what I have written. it shows completely different
 
That's sth we can not control completelly. The only thing that can be done is wait until the page is crawled and recrawled again and again in order to let Google understand the metadescription you choose should be displayed.
 
It may happen because of the following the reason

1.Wrong description in code


2.Google cache is outdated
If you’ve recently updated your description, Google probably hasn’t indexed the new description yet. It can take up to a week for Google to index the changes you made, depending on how often your website is crawled.

3.Search term manipulation

4.Google ignored the meta description

If you do change your description, be sure to use the Inspect any URL tool in Google Search Console to update Google’s index with the new change.
