A meta description is text within your HTML code that is sometimes returned in the search engine results. It is a summary of what your page content is about and is typically about 160 characters.

hi

How to write a great meta description

Meta description checklist
Keywords: do make sure your most important keywords for the webpage show up in the meta description. Often search engines will highlight in bold where it finds the searchers query in your snippet.
Write legible, readable copy: this is essential. Keyword stuffing your meta description is bad and it doesn’t help the searcher as they’ll assume your result leads to a spammy website. Make sure your description reads like a normal, human-written sentence.
Treat the meta description as if it’s an advert for your web-page: make it as compelling and as relevant as possible. The description MUST match the content on the page, but you should also make it as appealing as possible.
Length: a meta description should be no longer than 135 – 160 characters long
