Code showing in search...Still.

Carden

Why am I still seeing the code in my Google searches for my pages on a particular subject/gallery title?

Not working for me
I'm sorry, Andy. This is not working for me. When I google search "Beth Singley Photography", I get this:





Beth Singley Photography

var ssConfig = { AlbumID: '8586486', AlbumKey: 'bYxpy', newWindow: 'false', transparent: 'true', showLogo: 'false', clickUrl: 'none', showThumbs: 'true', ...

despite that my settings say:
Homepage Meta Description: High Quality Portrait and Wedding photography based in the Raleigh, NC area. For more information, please send us a message through the contact link.

Thoughts? How long does this take to kick in?

It could take as long as a week or even two before Google reindexes your site and sees the new change. If you haven't waited that long, it's probably just that Google hasn't gotten back to your site yet to see the change.

Carden

possibly use this index link?
You could try this link

http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl

It submits a re-crawl request to Google. They say there are no guarantees, but you can try it.
