One of my sites is listed high for allinanchor: but as a single line only - no meta-description even though my site has one. I've heard someone call this the 'single line of death' .. any idea what this is about?

Re: Single line in the SERPs
It means that page is partially indexed, try making sure all elements of the page are unique, form title, description and onpage text, then build some fresh links to it
Starting LEC 7 soon but it won't be called LEC 7 - LEC 2012 coming soon!

Re: Single line in the SERPs
It is referred to as the single line o' death because if untreated as indicated by the Webmaster above, it often leads to disappearing from the rankings.
It goes without saying that fresh links should be to folks who are cached with Google and who get spidered regularly...

Re: Single line in the SERPs
allright.. thanks.. I'll give it a shot, though I don't think there's much dup content at all. Are you saying that every single page on the site should have a unique page title?

Re: Single line in the SERPs
Yes, every page should have a unique title, meta keywords and description.
Money Magazine says that Orland Park real estate is one of the best places to live in the U.S. Check out Homer Glen homes if you're interested in living in the newest Chicago suburb. Next door, Lemont homes are the priciest in the southwest suburbs and have held their value, even appreciating while prices in other areas have gone down.

Re: Single line in the SERPs
The title is the most important part of your page IMO. It should describe the page, not the site.
