You could add a meta description tag into your header template for the index page, if there’s not already one of them.
Somewhere below this line in your header
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>" />
Put this –
<?php
if(is_home()) { echo '<meta name="description" content="Put your description here." />'; }
?>
Does this method also work for Keywords?
Also does Google still use keywords?

How to force a line feed between these two meta tags?
[code]
<?php
if(is_home()) { echo '<meta name="description" content="Information about rare and collectible glass bottles." />';
echo '<meta name="keywords" content="bottle mold, glass bottle, bottle bases, glass machine, pontil, mold seams, base plate, blown bottle, side mold seams, historic bottles" />';
}
?>
[/code]
