I recently opened two websites, one is running on WordPress and one is a HTML website. On both of them I have the same issue.

I added the title like that:

<title>Main Keyword - Secondary Keyword - SiteName</title>

The title doesn't exceed 69 characters.

When I search for the website on Google, the title is displayed like that:

SiteName: Main Keyword - Secondary Keyword

The issue: "SiteName" is on the left followed by ":".

This can't be something from WordPress because as I told you I have the same issue on a pure HTML website. Any ideas, suggestions? I really appreciate any intervention.

Thanks in advance!

  • Yes, in the browser tab it looks fine, but when you search for the website on Google it's displayed like I said. – toofast Feb 19 '14 at 20:16
  • It is not a duplicate because I couldn't find the answer there. There was a comment saying that probably Google hasn't indexed the page yet, well that's not true. I've changed the title and description and it was updated in Google too, but still I get the title to the left followed by ":" – toofast Feb 20 '14 at 10:22

Have you tried this?

1) open your panel in /wp-admin/options-general.php

Check my image (my painel is in portuguese) but you can see the input for title and description

  • For the WordPress site, I am using Yoast SEO plugin, so I don't use the basic Site Title from WordPress. – toofast Feb 19 '14 at 18:51
