Hello again! So I’ve made sure to check my Homepage title in both WordPress and my Yoast SEO plugin, but for some reason, whenever my site shows up in Google search results, it displays the site URL and not the title itself. Using the Echoverse theme for reference. Is there a need to edit the H1 from the theme file editor or something? Thanks!
Hello!
Make sure your homepage SEO Title is set correctly in Yoast: In WordPress, go to Yoast SEO → Search Appearance → General. Check the Homepage title settings.
If you have a static page set as homepage, go to Pages → Edit Homepage → Yoast SEO section, and set the SEO title. Your SEO title should be something like:
Home – My Awesome Site
Google decides what to show even if you set it correctly in Yoast. Sometimes they: Ignore your SEO title if they think another text is clearer.
Temporarily show the URL if the page title or content is missing/broken.
Again, check the live page using Google’s URL Inspection Tool and Request Indexing.
If you have wrong or strange redirects, Google might get confused about which page to show. In Yoast, make sure no weird canonicals are set manually.
