Hello everyone new here and could use some advice.
I've recently been going back threw my old websites and optimizing for se's, this is something I never paid atention to when I first started back in 2k.
Anyways I was working on a site of mine and got it from the 9th page the the 1st. I pretty much changed everything one at a time and watched my site climb until I finally got to the first page. Then all of a sudden after the weekend yahoo dropped me back down to page 5. The first thing I noticed was that yahoo isnt reading my description tag properly. Yahoo is showing my old description and Im not sure why. I changed the description about 1 week prior to getting on page 1 and Yahoo was showing the change. Now all of a sudden they changed it back.
Is there a reason for this? How do I get the se results to show the proper description?
Currently my tags look like this:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<meta name="Language" content="EN">
<meta name="Robots" content="index,follow">
<title> </title>
<meta name="description" content=" ">
<meta name="keywords" content=" ">
Thanks in advance for any replies.

what a great forum this is.. 825 views for a reasonably simple question and no reply.
Yahoo may be using your dmoz or yahoo etc directory entry description for the match, for whatever reason it sees fit. WE have no idea what that is as we dont know what you've recently done to your site.
