Updating WordPress meta descriptions via chat

A meta description is the short summary that appears under your page title in Google search results. Writing a good one matters — it affects whether someone clicks through to your WordPress site. WP Assist can write optimised meta descriptions for any page and update them directly in your SEO plugin (Yoast SEO or Rank Math).

How to update a meta description

Ask WP Assist in the chat — some examples:

  • "Write a meta description for my services page."
  • "Update the meta description on my homepage to include the phrase 'web design Bristol'."
  • "All my service pages are missing meta descriptions — can you write them?"
  • "The meta description on my about page is too long — rewrite it to be under 155 characters."

What WP Assist does

  1. WP Assist reads your existing page content to understand what the page is about.
  2. It generates a meta description that is accurate, naturally written, and under 160 characters.
  3. It updates the meta description field directly in your SEO plugin — Yoast SEO or Rank Math, whichever is installed on your WordPress site.

Include keywords: You can ask WP Assist to include a specific keyword in the meta description: "Write a meta description for my contact page that includes 'free consultation'". The AI will weave it in naturally.
