Hello, so I recently lifted off the store password from my website. The thing is, it’s still showing this description under my store on the Google search page.
Topic summary
A user removed their store password but Google search results still display the old password-related description instead of the updated meta description.
Key Points:
- Google doesn’t update search results immediately after site changes
- The indexing process typically takes 24 hours to 2 weeks
- Google may also choose its own description based on page content, regardless of manually set meta descriptions
Recommended Solution:
Use Google Search Console to request a re-crawl of the site by submitting the homepage URL for indexing, which may accelerate the update process.
The issue remains ongoing as the user waits for Google to reflect the changes.
Hi @Anas_2 ,
Thanks for reaching out! If you’ve recently removed the store password and updated your meta description, but Google is still showing the old one, don’t worry—it’s quite normal.
Google doesn’t update search results instantly. It can take several days or even a few weeks for the new meta description to appear in search results. Also, Google sometimes chooses its own description based on the page content, even if you’ve set one manually.
To speed up the process, you can request Google to re-crawl your site using Google Search Console. Submitting your homepage URL for indexing might help reflect the changes sooner.
Let me know if you need help with that!
Best regards,
Makka
The min time duration to show change on google search result is 24 hours and max can be two weeks. So you need to keep patience.
