Welcome to the Q&A Forum

YouTube videos have been very effective for us on our site. The only problem is they have taken part of a fair amount of our content so to google our pages may seem to have minimal content.

Transcribing each video and including that on the page would take away from the look of the page and clutter it. Is there a way to let google know the content without having to include it on the page?

You can find an example page at https://www.waikoloavacationrentals.com/halii-kai-rentals/

@bigkahuna111 My issue is I have ads appearing that I am not making money off of that are my competitors. It is not a monetization issue.

@G7Auto Nice. I actually did not know that. For this specific question though my main concern is my target audience because they are seeing ads of my competitors on my videos.

@crocs81

Yeah, I tried that, but monetization is not turned on at all since I do not have enough followers, etc.

How do you remove ads that pop up on your youtube videos? I have created several videos only to have my competitors ad be the first thing to show up on the videos. Curious how you turn that off.

@pau4ner Thanks. Yeah, that is what I was figuring. The problem is it is way off. For example my description could be:

Kolea at Waikoloa Beach Resort offers two and three bedroom vacation rentals on the beach.

Google is making it:
1BR , 2BR, Houses, Condos, and on and on

It is pulling info that makes zero sense.

I have seen several posts as to why google may not be using the meta description. The most common reason is that they found other text on the page that is more relevant. While I have seen this to be the case on some, most of the time it is not. Is there any way to alert the google bot that it is taking wrong info that would not be good to the user?

It now has taken away even the subpages so I have pretty much dropped out of any rankings related to that page without doing hardly anything at all to it.  The terms I go after related to that page are pretty easy terms so I should at least show up on the first page.

Interesting.  Yeah, no new links that should be bad as well as nothing changed on that page.  I am guessing the competition did not step up due to the fact that my pages that would fall below this page are still ranking well.

Then any idea why the ranking would have dropped so significantly?  I was second and now I'm not even on the second page For the search term Mauna Lani terrace. The subpages show up higher.
