  Hi there. You can change the blog title and tagline under Settings ->General. That information is used both to display the title on your blog and also in the site’s html header. You can’t edit the html header directly.

  Hi, I have tried this and it just changes the tag line on my webpage. How do I get google to show a true description of my website? As the one it is showing is about 1 month old. My site is http://thefoodtreatmentclinic.com

  Thanks.

  It will take time for the change to reflect in Google as well – Google will first need to re-index your site but it shouldn’t take too long as WordPress.com pings Google every time you publish a new post.

  You might be able to speed this up if you verify your site with Webmaster Tools (https://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/) and then submit a request for Google to re-crawl your site (https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6065812?hl=en). I’m not sure if that will work, but it’s all I can think of that you can do.
