Loes, I assume you are referring to snippets in search results. I feel this is where I must improve my performance. But there is the word limit. Some of your examples may exceed it. This is a tough challenge.

Google often takes the first lines of the intro text, instead of the lines you provide in the All in One description, so it works both ways, in the snippet and on the website when people have clicked your link

Some great tips. Thanks
