In a perfect world, the person answering the phone would ask “How did you hear about us” and learn that it’s a Web lead. That can be tricky, though – not everyone remembers to ask.

Another idea is to use a different 800# to track Web leads.

Keep us posted!

But I think that will discourage click-throughs in many cases. Folks will see the enticing headline and description and just pick up the phone and call. It’s good for the client … but when evaluating click-through data, we’ll have to keep that in mind.

Hey Kevin-

It’s true that Google is trying to show the user the most helpful information (in this case, it would be the text around their search term.) HOWEVER, the meta description helps encourage click-through from the SERPS – so it’s pretty important for that initial conversion.

In that case, wouldn’t you want to stack the odds in your favor (and have a great snippet) as much as possible..? :)

Thanks for your comment!

I never really worry about whether Google shows in its SERPS my own description meta content for a page or a selected snippet from that page.

If it shows my own predefined text then that’s great. But if Google instead offers a text snippet for a particular search then surely it’s attempting to help that user with more appropriate information. For me, that’s a really good thing.

Excellent tip! I’ve experimented with some RDFa and other methods that Google has suggested with not much luck. I think they are only used in certain situations but I see where this may be a technique to go with the other RDFa for better results.

This really helps in controlling the snippet that searches see. Thanks Disa and Heather!
