The title of my site is showing in search results next to the post title despite having it set to only show the post title. I’ve had it set this way for months so it certainly is not an issue with indexing, all of my pages have been indexed recently. I’ve been experiencing this issue for months and have come here for help with no solutions found.

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to us regarding the issue you are facing with your site title showing in search results alongside the post title. We understand your concern and would like to assist you with this.

Google automatically includes your brand name in the title, even if you deliberately leave it out from your titles. This behavior is not specific to any SEO plugin and can happen regardless of the settings you have in place.

If you wish to know more about why Google includes your brand name in the search results, you can refer to this article: Google Automatically Adds Brand Name to Titles.

Additionally, experts on Google’s forums have confirmed that this behavior is intentional. You can find more information on this topic here: Google’s Forum Replies.

While you may have set your site to only show the post title, Google’s algorithms may still choose to display your brand name based on keyword intent and other factors.

If you have any other questions or need further assistance, please feel free to let us know. We are here to help you.
