Having taken some interest in the launch of the new Cuil search engine it appears that the snippet and headline in the examples i have seen are being generated using the Wikipedia entry. It doesn’t appear to respect the <meta name=”robots” content=”noodp”> tag either…I know this is a reference to Open source directory but not that means web masters are going to have to go and enter another tag and in a company with over 30 titles this is time consuming! The snippet is longer than most meta description tags at around 325-350 characters. Does that mean we need to write a new description tag to accommodate Cuil to maximise our click through rate? Time will tell…
