Title SEO – The Symptoms
beside the obvious, a title which you don’t want to show (in my case – showing the name of the blog only instead of article name)
you should check the code behind of the page.
seacrch for the ‘<title>’ meta inside the ‘<head></head>‘ tags. see if this is the real title you want to be shown on google
if the <title> value is wrong either, then your template is mixed up and you need to fix the title in your template, which is out of this article coverage.
if it’s the title you wish for google to show, then do the following:
The Solution
Install ‘WordPress SEO by Yoast‘ plugin
{{Ad}}
after a successful installation, it’ll add a SEO menu inside your admin panel.
goto SEO -> Titles Metas
and check:
- Add
1noodp
meta robots tag sitewide
- Add
1noydir
meta robots tag sitewide
Now give google some time… to see if now it’s fixed…
Good luck!
