(Websites :: Firefox Flicks, defect)

Description

Attachment: Google Result March 6 2013

Gregory noticed the flicks google result had some wonky text.

The descriptive text is coming from DMOZ and the site links are from the old site.

I requested and update to the DMOZ text and a respider however I wanted to investigate if we are missing any meta tags. I would have thought the sites meta desc would take precedence over DMOZ.

You have to add the following meta tags:

<meta name="description" content="Firefox Flicks is ...">
<meta name="robots" content="noodp">

There is a <meta property="og:description"> but Google won't use the OGP meta data.
