Hi,
That’s a bit unusual if Google serves the AMP version in desktop search results. I tried it as well and it looks good for me.
From the desktop search results page -> https://prnt.sc/cNuGIW_8p7m8 I arrive on the desktop post page -> https://prnt.sc/SaCSgKOerVmn
And from the mobile search results page -> https://prnt.sc/dVuWaCgnjuq2 I arrive on the AMP page -> https://prnt.sc/zn8VdtJKOVXP
I tested about 20 posts from the website like this, all looked good.
The only unusual thing I see, and I wanted to mention it, is having 14 title tags in the post page. There is the usual one in the head -> https://prnt.sc/fpFjo2-lELKr and 13 others, like one below the opening body tag -> https://prnt.sc/RCMLvYBDHVJ6 and the rest seem to be wherever there is an ad -> https://prnt.sc/QU4M8_gRe35w
I don’t think that is normal. As far as I know there should be only one title tag in a page. Or is there a purpose for having them perhaps?
Thank you!
Simion, thank you very much for your attention, feedback, and care with the case.
It’s strange that in some queries on my browser – Google search reports from my desktop to AMP – but I’ve already tested it with other devices and it worked perfectly as you informed.
Regarding the title tags, I only noticed when I did a crawl in Ahrefs, which reported several titles for this reference “https://prnt.sc/QU4M8_gRe35w”.
This website https://prnt.sc/QU4M8_gRe35w – which reports to https://www.cidademarketing.com.br/marketing/sua-marca-vai-virar-noticia/ - was our only page created by Elementor – could there be a connection? Can you help us identify this error? Thank you.
Although everything appears to be working normally – with Google indexing reporting the article title without conflict with other titles – many pieces of content are being reported as main news and are already appearing on artificial intelligence platforms.
I don’t think elementor is adding the titles.
So the first title is correct, it’s the one in the website head.
The second appears right after the opening body tag -> https://prnt.sc/WLpnobnj86dI Either it was manually added in the theme header.php file, or a code plugin or code snippet is adding it there.
And all the rest of the title tags are inside the ad codes -> https://prnt.sc/EktU0DHN0E6z I suggest checking the ad codes. Maybe the ad codes were copied from somewhere else, because I don’t think that someone manually added titles and meta tags inside each ad code -> https://prnt.sc/X4RiqWKeQHnJ Please check the ad codes entered in the theme panel.
Having so many title tags and meta tags in a single page can lead to issues, I can’t say which kind of issues but it’s nor normal.
Thank you!
Thank you for your help and for detecting this error. The codes for our ads generated by chatgpt reported several title tags. We have already corrected them – can you check them? Thank you very much.
Now it’s better, I see the titles from the ad codes are gone. There is just one extra title tag remaining, the one right after the opening body tag. Hopefully that one can be found as well and removed. From what I can tell the secondary title is part of a group of meta tags, those should be perhaps move in the head, or removed as well if they aren’t necessary.
I suggest checking if a plugin is loading them there, or if maybe they are added in the theme header file, or maybe even in the theme panel -> https://prnt.sc/-KgS4NmoJB3r
Thank you!
Simion, good evening.
I am once again grateful for your attention and promptness.
Done! I believe I am now only using Yoast SEO’s own descriptive text – without inferring new titles. Is that correct? Thank you and have a great weekend.
all AMP pages always had a canonical, which was the non amp version on your site — the redirect is just sending all /amp requests to the canonical link, the original “true” link for the content; if implemented correctly. This is Google’s recommended solution.
You can find many examples of this solution online going back to 2023.
