    i think meta description plays a major role in search engine ranking of your post so writing an SEO friendly meta description is important for ranking factor.

    You must write meta description under 156 characters and use your focus keyword in meta description one time.

    The visitor from the search engine will definitely click on your post if you have an attractive and good length meta description. That's why your blog traffic will increase rapidly.
