: Hijacked meta description On my site: www someone hacked into my website and now it's displaying wrong Meta description on Google search results. I've verified this using "view source" that meta

@Alves908

You must release the website cache, remove your cookies, logout from your google accounts and search again and see if it's changed.

Anyway it takes time to reindex your pages with your meta tags.

You sould carefully search trought all files and see suspicious codes / scripts.

You haven't fully cleaned your site. Google is still seeing the hacked version of your home page.

I identified this two ways.


If you view the Google cache of your home page, you will still the hacked page. You can do this by clicking the small green triangle next the the home page URL in Google SERPS, then clicking 'cached'. The date of the cached page is 17 Apr 2014, so Google is still seeing the hacked page.
Just to double check how Google is viewing the page I used Screaming Frog site crawler which has an option in the configuration option to change the user agent. I switched it to Google Bot and crawled your home page and can confirm when Google hits your home page, it sees a different page as the user does.


You need to fix your site again and ensure it is completely cleaned.

If it was 'hacked' and you changed it back, it will take time to be updated in search results.
