MetaDescriptionAuditor

The info.magnolia.services.seo.audit.impl.MetaDescriptionAuditor checks a node for a property named "description" and if defined, checks the length of the value. Many search engines ignore long meta descriptions. Typically all text after about 160 to 180 characters is ignored. This auditor can help you check pages for long meta descriptions.

This auditor assumes that the node property "description" contains the meta description text.
