Navigate to search preference and wait for the page to fully load. The only thing we are editing here is the Meta description. This tool is the one that helps you tell Google that this is the original site description I want you to show everyone that searches for my blog.
The main tool that does the rest is called Google search Console which can be found below. Please, do not go there if you know nothing about it as Google itself would give you a warning, give this to an expert to help you work on it at a token price.
At default, the tool is disabled so you will have to enable it by clicking on the edit button, click yes, then a box will appear for you to type in your description. Kindly copy and paste the previous description into the box and press “Save changes”.
