I noticed the same with the WWSGD (What Would Seth Godin Do) plugin. When it was active on some blogs, if I didn’t manually fill in a meta description, the plugin message became my pages’ descriptions in the search engines.

I found this out when I Googled my site once and noticed that most of the descriptions of the pages were something like

“If you enjoyed this post, you might want to subscribe to this blog in a reader or subscribe to email updates …”

Good point Dennise… I’m going to update this in the report and post the tutorial on this blog soon.

Delete the plugin I suggested and read the last few posts here

I am having problems with the contact form you mentioned in the book. I followed your instructions on how to download it and created a page but I still get a 404 error. I am not sure if this has anything to do with it or not. Its good that you recommend using another form, but, it would be nice for those of us who are completely green to this if you just referred to your book and what process we are suppose to follow to get rid of the original form you mentioned and how to install this new one???

Funny you you mentioned Contact 7 pluggin. I’m currently using it on one of my blog. I started using it after the one you recommended was difficult for to install. But I still have it on other sites. I guess, I need to replace them with Contact 7.
Thanks for all your help.
