    Hi,

    My site's (Wind Jobs) meta info is not being read by live.com, I've resubmitted the site to twice in live.com's "    Submit your site's URL" Is there something more I need to do?

    Sincerely,
    David

    Okay. I just wanted to get on the same page.Unfortunately, there is no way to manually change the snippet info. However, I suggest submitting the sitemap with the <changefreq> dates set to daily. That might trigger a recrawl.

    Hi David,

     

    when you say  meta info, what exactly are you meaning?

     

    Taking a stab at what you might be meaning:

     

    I see that we have you indexed:

     

    http://search.live.com/results.aspx?q=site%3Awindjobs.org&form=QBRE

     

    have you tried submitting a sitemap to our tools? I also suggest reading the FAQs located at the top of this forum and at the top of the ranking forum to get a better understanding of how Live Search works.

    Hi Brett,

    Thank you for your follow up.

    I have not submitted a sitemap as of yet but, I will.  I'm also going to read through your FAQs.

    In regards to the meta info, my site reads:

    Untitled Document

    The Premier United States Wind Jobs Website. Please visit us again shortly

    Hi Brett,

    Thank you for your follow up.

    In regards to the meta data on live.com windjobs.org reads:

    Untitled Document

    The Premier United States Wind Jobs Website. Please visit us again shortly


    but the meta data on the index page is: 
    <title>windjobs.org - Wind Jobs</title>

    <meta name="DESCRIPTION" content="The #1 jobs site for career minded professionals seeking employment in the wind industry around the globe.">
    which should read in the search results as...

    windjobs.org - Wind Jobs 
    The #1 jobs site for career minded professionals seeking employment in the wind industry around the globe.

    Please let me know what I can do to correct this. If it's submitting a sitemap to live.com tools, could you please sent me a link to that page.  

    Best regards,
    David

    Dear Brett,

    Recently, I've launched a completely new version (v2.3) of my site windjobs(dot)org and I'm still not appearing any where in the Live.com search even when I submit a  search for "wind jobs".  I added the new site to your site submit but, that does not seem to help. Please advise.

    Sincerely,
    David Levitz
