SEO questions

[bobbi2]

1. How long after I make changes to "page descpription" in SEO settings for each page (and PUBLISH) will I see that updated in the google search display?

2. Likewise, when will I start to find my site with the meta words I put into key word search?

3. Is there a way my "sub-headline" on my home page can appear with my website in google searches?

Thank you.

Thanks for your questions, @bobbi. 

1. It's tough to say - it should happen automatically but there isn't really a way to know when Google will do this. You can use Google's "fetch as google" tool to try and speed it up, though: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/9073702?hl=en&visit_id=636899943043756067-3573189277&rd...

2. It can take time to get ranked by specific keywords and it would be very difficult to predict any kind of timeline for that since there are so many factors involved.

3. If you want specific text to appear with your site description in Google searches, be sure to add it to the description field in Settings > SEO.

For item 3, add to HOME page "Page Description" field?

Tried that.  For whatever reason my home page does not appear in google search when I type it out, just my about page.

Hi Bobbi. What are you typing out again?
