    Bad Credit Now

    brings up my page as number one on Yahoo but it has added text to the description.

    Bad Credit Loans – Personal Loans – Fast Approval
    Need Credit Now Offers The Very Best And Fastest Bad Credit Loans … Need Credit Now © 2007 All Rights Reserved. Using WordPress Engine …
    need-credit-now.org – Cached

    Any idea on what’s causing it, or how to get rid of it?

    thanks,

    Jane

    I would assume you had been hacked unless your site is about loans, etc. What is your URL?

    It’s my site and it’s about loans.

    You can see the url in the text above.

    I think Yahoo is automatically grabbing anything on the page that says Need Credit Now (the search words that the surfer enters).

    Not much that I can do about it, and I shouldn’t complain if I’m at the top of page one – with the exception of the paid ads.

    Google doesn’t seem to have the same problem when it grabs text, which is interesting.

    Bing and Google are the same grabbing from site description in meta.

    Yahoo seems to be grabbing from meta, all in one CEO and your footer.

    If you turn off all in one does it still happen? Not really a problem though. :^)
