Need help with meta descriptions
-
Hey I just started a new blog and have never had trouble with this in the past. When my posts get indexed by google it is popping up as the same meta description. I am using the nownews theme, i paid for it.
my site is http://www.thecelebritygossip.com and you can view the descriptions on google by typing in site:thecelebritygossip.com
Thank you and here is my header file:
