Why Does Google Show 'No Info' in Serp Description for a Ranked page?

[SelenaQuintanilla]

Hello BHW friends,

I'm exploring into the world of Parasite SEO and have been experimenting with Medium.com. Recently, I've encountered a peculiar situation that I'd love to get your insights on.

While reviewing Google search results for my page, I noticed something unusual. My page is indexed and ranks for certain keywords, and its title is visible in the search results. However, the description section displays a strange message saying, "No information is available for this page."

What's more intriguing is that when I visit the actual page on Medium, it appears not to be cached or indexed by Google. This situation seems odd since the page is clearly indexed and ranks in search results, but with these anomalies.

Have any of you experienced this with Medium or other websites? I'm curious to understand what might be causing this and how to address it.
Ps : i just got this situation today for the other article with medium i didn't have this situation....
Thanks in advance for your insights!

Medium code source, the page is "index"

Sometimes, Google doesn't show any information about a web page in the search results. This can happen if the website owner hasn't written a short summary of the page (called a meta description) for search engines to use. If the description is too short, too long, not relevant, or full of keywords, Google might ignore it. Google might also use other content from the page instead. Technical issues on the website can also cause problems. To fix this, write a good meta description, make sure your page content matches your keywords, and check for technical issues using Google Search Console.

Hey, thanks for your answer.
But the meta description isn't the issue—I can't edit that on Medium.

The weird part is, I've never saw this is type of answer/decription in Google.
It's like Google isn't caching the page or seeing it as indexed, but it still shows up in search results.
Could this be a Medium thing, or is it on Google's end? This is all new to me. Any ideas?

The page is most likely blocked by robots.txt for whatever reason,
You can still force index such pages with links & redirects tho

Google may display "No info" or a truncated description in the search engine results page (SERP) for a ranked page if the search engine cannot find relevant information or if the meta description provided by the website is not sufficiently descriptive. It could also be due to technical issues, crawlability problems, or if Google deems the provided meta description as not representative of the page's content. To address this, ensure your meta descriptions are concise, accurately reflect page content, and check for any technical issues affecting the crawling and indexing of your site.

I think its like this :

the .com/page/yourpage is index, follow but .com/page/ is noindex,nofollow.

I have seen cases like this, where the url gets forcefully index even if its subsidiary is noindex, nofollow.
