Looks fine to me too... assuming your on about the linkedIn profile?

Viagra salesmen have been using parasites like that for years, tho not sure if that one was deliberate.

Google weights trusted domains to combat spam.
Spammers target trusted domains they can create pages on... preferably those which allow a javascript overlay so they can pop a full size pretty overlay on top of their profile page etc.

Twitter was ranking high for viagra a while back....

Yeah I was just looking at that... I missed the point of the post with my previous reply :redface:

I cannot find any info on using those tags tho, I wonder if it is just the mention of "title" or "summary" in the tag that triggers it or if it is a specific tag... if its specific I would have thought I would be able to find more info on it...

I found another page with something similar that was not even in the page content, but I think that was fished out of rss... but that masage thing does not have rss on the page....

Just looking at your wireless home security site Aliv8.

I would personally move the large description of your site below the products for better CTR.

Like this.

I'm dying to find out what it is.

Though could be Google running some tests so we won't know just yet.

Done some searching myself to no avail.

Dont worry guys, I will get to the bottom of it.
I believe they are working on the same thing we are.
Snippet save clicks.
