The meta description tag is intented to be a brief and concise summary of your page's content. Though meta description tags are not a major factor search engines consider when ranking sites, they should not be left off the page. Both the meta keywords tag and the meta description tag contribute to your search engine ranking, and the meta description tag influences the liklihood that a person will actually click on the search engine results page and visit your site.

The meta description is a meta tag that is used to describe the current Web page. It provides a short summary of the page so that readers can decide whether the page is what they are looking for or looks interesting.

The meta description is used by search engines to describe the Web page in their results. If your page doesn't have a good meta description, it still could display near the top of the results, but the listing will just grab content from your page, which can end up with a link that no one clicks on.
