Drupal: specify the search engine description summary from back-end?

Is there any way to write in the Drupal back-end the text to display in the search engine summaries?

Currently, the beginning of my home page (usually menus...) is displayed. I would 开发者_StackOverflow社区like to add a description instead.

Thanks

Google uses the metatag "description" when is it is available, instead of the content on the page.

There are a few modules that will help you create them:

nodewords and Integrated Metatags

Are the most popular. Using one of these modules will most likely be easier than hiding text with css, and from what I understand google ignores hidden text at least part of the time.

you can see this in action at our site

Here is a google search showing the how the custom descriptions show up.

You can't do this in the backend.

You should be able to this with regular Drupal theming. How depends on which search tool you use.
