How can I fix a client's incorrect SEO title showing up in Canadian results?

Hi everyone,

I'm having a little trouble with a client's SEO title. When googling 'bather newsletter' a result for their FAQ shows up with an incorrect title.

I have removed the unnecessary code however this search result still shows up. This will only show up on Canadian results, searching up 'bather newsletter' through an American connection, this result doesn't show up.

SEO is not my strongest skill so does anyone know if there is anything I'm missing?  If any other information is needed please let me know! 

Thanks in advanced!

There are no title or meta description tags. To fix, put those back in the theme code, or get someone to do this for you, or can try reinstall an app that does it for you.

These comments from <head> seems to indicate that you've used some SEO apps which may have taken out <title> and <meta description=""> tags with them.

Hi @JoshTag ,

 

It sounds like Google might still be indexing the old title from its cache. Usually, updates to SEO titles should reflect after a few days, but it can sometimes take weeks for Google to re-crawl and update its search results. You might want to use Google's Search Console to request a re-indexing of the page.

 

Regarding your client's SEO, SEOPro could assist in ensuring that SEO titles and meta descriptions are optimally set. It helps to detect and fix issues such as missing keywords, which seems pertinent to your case. Additionally, SEOPro can help in maintaining a consistent SEO strategy across all products and collections in a Shopify store.

Hi @JoshTag

 

If you encounter the issue of not showing SEO titles correctly in Search Results, this is due to two factors:

 

1. Google has not yet indexed or crawled your page and updated the data. In this way, you can consider submitting the sitemap again from Google Search Console and then wait for some time until Google displays the latest results.

 

2. The code contents concerning meta title and meta description are incorrect and Google fails to get a clear SEO title after crawling. If so, you need to further check the code contents in theme.liquid file and see if accurate or not. Here is the original meta title and meta description contents I attach below after checking from original version of theme.liquid file, for your reference here.

<title>
      {{ page_title }}
      {%- if current_tags %} &ndash; tagged "{{ current_tags | join: ', ' }}"{% endif -%}
      {%- if current_page != 1 %} &ndash; Page {{ current_page }}{% endif -%}
      {%- unless page_title contains shop.name %} &ndash; {{ shop.name }}{% endunless -%}
    </title>

    {% if page_description %}
      <meta name="description" content="{{ page_description | escape }}">
    {% endif %}
