Title and Meta Description Display Issue

[yesterdaysgone]

Last week I found my website was displaying the site directory of my website instead of the homepage. I got it resolved; somehow the file that should show the website content had been renamed.

So I was going through my SERP results yesterday and noticed that the title and Meta Description being displayed was from my directory not the actual title and Meta Description from my home page.

However Google does display the correct snippet from my website in my Google PPC ads results.

I'm hoping there is a simple fix for this so if you have an idea on the best way to get this resolved please let me know. Really appreciate any suggestions.

I'm going to assume by 'my directory' you are meaning a listing in a link directory like the Open Directory Project or Yahoo? Quote below is from [support.google.com...]

To prevent all search engines (that support the meta tag) from using this information for the page's description, use the following:

<meta name="robots" content="NOODP">

'NOYDIR' is the content entry for the Yahoo Directory.
