I went into Google to check my site and discovered that someone changed my Website’s meta description. Where do I edit the meta description? Please go easy – I’m not a tech expert. How do I edit it back step-by-step. My website is “heavendreamscometrue.com”.

A scan of your site shows no sign of a hack. why do you think it was hacked? Are you already using an SEO plugin?

How do I change my site’s description? Someone changed the description. I used an SEO Plugin, but the description area is blank.

the cached google search result of your site looks like you have been hacked; (but it also shows a different theme being used)

possibly contact your hosting company about that, and start by reviewing http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_My_site_was_hacked

Yes, I know I’ve been hacked. How do I remove what has been placed and change the Meta Description to what it should be?

You need to start working your way through these resources:

Anything less will probably result in the hacker walking straight back into your site again.
