What's the issue?
Your og:description appears to contain keyword stuffing — the same word or phrase is repeated excessively. This makes the description look spammy and can hurt both user engagement and SEO.
Why keyword stuffing is harmful
For users
- Descriptions read unnaturally and feel robotic
- Users are less likely to trust and click links with spammy descriptions
- It gives the impression of a low-quality site
For search engines
- Google actively penalizes keyword stuffing since the Panda update
- It can trigger spam filters on social platforms
- Your content may be demoted in both search and social algorithms
For social platforms
- Facebook and LinkedIn may reduce the reach of posts with spammy content
- Some platforms may flag or hide your link preview
How to fix it
Write naturally, as if you're describing your page to a friend:
<!-- Bad: keyword stuffing -->
<meta property="og:description" content="Best shoes online. Buy shoes. Cheap shoes. Running shoes, casual shoes, dress shoes. Shop shoes now at our shoes store." />
<!-- Good: natural writing -->
<meta property="og:description" content="Discover our curated collection of running, casual, and dress footwear. Free shipping on orders over $50. New arrivals weekly." />Best practices
- Use each keyword once — Mention your main topic naturally, don't repeat it
- Use synonyms — Instead of "shoes" five times, use "footwear", "sneakers", "collection"
- Focus on value — What makes your page worth visiting?
- Read it aloud — If it sounds unnatural, rewrite it
- Aim for 110-160 characters — Enough room to be descriptive without being repetitive
