To change the sitename on Google search, you need to update the meta title tag of your website’s homepage to reflect the desired sitename. Once updated, Google will eventually reflect the new sitename in its search results.
If I understand your question correctly, you want to display a custom text instead of your website name in Google search results, such as “lorem ipsum.”
To do this, you can use the “title” and “description” tags in the HTML code of your website. These tags are used by search engines to display the title and description of your website in the search results.
Here’s how you can modify the title and description tags in your website’s HTML code:
Open the HTML code of the page you want to modify.
Look for the <title> tag and change the text inside it to your custom text, such as “Lorem Ipsum – Example.com”.
Look for the <meta name=”description”> tag and change the content attribute to your custom text, such as “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Example.com is a leading provider of lorem ipsum content.”
Once you’ve made these changes, search engines should start displaying your custom text instead of your website name in the search results.
Note that it may take some time for search engines to update their indexes and start displaying the new text, so you may not see the changes immediately🙂
Hello,
Thank you for using Rank Math SEO plugin. We are happy to assist you with your query.
If you want to change the site name that shows up on Google search results using Rank Math, you can do so by following these simple steps:
- Navigate to Rank Math > Titles & Meta > Homepage from your WordPress dashboard.
- In the Homepage Title field, type in the site name that you want to display on Google Search. This is the text that will appear as the title link for your website on Google search results. You can also use variables like
%sitename%, %sitedesc%, etc. to dynamically insert the site name and description that you have set in your WordPress settings. To edit your Site Title and Site Description, go to WordPress > Settings > General.
- Save your changes and clear any cache plugins or services that you are using on your website.
Please keep in mind that Google may not immediately update the site name for your website, as it depends on when Google crawls and indexes your site. You can speed up this process by using the Google Indexing API with Rank Math. You can learn how to do that from this tutorial.
We hope this helps you resolve your issue. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us.
