  When I Google my site, the address shows up without a site description. How do I add a site description and meta tags/keywords? Is it editable via my WordPress Dashboard, or do I have to do it through the domain registrar?

  Google will construct its own site description eventually from the content in your blog, but if it has any trouble with that for any reason, it should pull the description from your tagline.

  Ultimately, we have no control over what Google chooses to use, so these are just suggestions based on what typically happens.

  And what about meta tags?

  We don’t have a way to add meta tags. The major search engines, including Google, actually stopped reading meta keyword tags back in 2006.
