Yes, but descriptions do not affect search results. A site without descriptions meta info is simply allocated a description by google's crawler

Ah, yes, Google does add dynamic description though. But by default is simply better and more SEO targeted.

That would obviously keep changing. the same search for the one at the top of vauxhall forum search shows

I know what I would rather have to describe my site, yes content is king but I know having a description has helped my site.

My forum is about psoriasis and this has a huge results in a search. so I decided to go for "Psoriasis Forum" I added this in headerinclude
<meta name="Keywords" content="psoriasis, psoriatic arhtritis, psoriasis help forum, psoriasis pictures, psoriasis cream, psoriasis uk, fumaderm, what is psoriasis, psoriasis cure, stelara, enbrel, humira, remicade, dovonex, dovobet, methotrexate, psorisis"/>
<meta name="Description" content="A friendly online Psoriasis forum with a good mix of Psoriasis
sufferers, and regular news. Never be alone, come and talk to others who understand."/>
I'm now on page 1 Google UK in second place just below a forum that pays for ads. Before adding the code above I was on page 5 for "Psoriasis Forum"
Be careful and try to get it right first time, I changed one word in my description and went back to page 20 for a few weeks before coming back up to page 1.

That is what I meant. If you don't have meta description, it hurts hard. Google would add anything like last post by and all that stuff, that won't have any interconnection to your site niche and as a result, it won't show up as it should.

Meta keywords mean nothing any more (for Google). Absolutely nothing. You could put "cheese sandwich" in there and nothing would change.
