Sitename in Mobile SERPS is Incorrect
-
Our site is being presented in mobile SERPS with a completely wrong sitename. Screenshot is attached.
Despite confirming multiple times that "HYPR Biometrics" does not actually appear anywhere in the back-end, schema markup, or webmaster tools settings - Google still _decides _that this is the site name. It makes no sense at all and is driving us crazy.
What can be done to correct this? I imagine this can be a major issue for companies who are completely misrepresented in SERPs.
Our URL is https://www.hypr.com/
Thanks in advance for any advice.

so weird, Ive checked on multiple friends and family devices and we all see "HYPR Biometrics"
Sitename is NOT "HYPR Biometrics" and should not be. don't know where this is being pulled from.
Would forcing breadcrumbs help overwrite that title?

What's interesting is I changed it months ago. Sitename is NOT "HYPR Biometrics" and should not be. I mean it hasn't been for years. I don't know where this is being pulled from.
Would forcing breadcrumbs help overwrite that title?

Hi There,
Google is generating the website Title and description dynamically in SERPs based on your meta and content. The search you performed is the reason that you are getting the Title and description ( it is available inside your Meta )
The second reason might be that your website is using RSS feed and that helps in the generation of dynamic title and description.
We have faced similar issue in the past and controlling these two factors might just help you have better control over the Title and description of the SERPs.
I hope it helps.
Regards,
Vijay

If you recently changed it, it sometimes takes a couple days to update properly in Google search results. Otherwise thesolution quite naturally would be to change your Wordpress pages title and description, or hopefully you use yoast because you can change it with that as well. Sounds like Gaston is saying it's already updated so you should be good to go, otherwise change it with either of the 2 options I listed~

Hi there!
I think that you are being played and mislead by your own cache/search history.
I've searched that breadcrums didnt appear.
Check the attached image.It is possible tat Google is interpreting that you are trying to show some breadcrumb through your schema markup. Made a quick look and didnt find any code stating anything about breadcrumbs.
It was helpfull this page: Breadcrumb - Schema Markup - Google SearchHope it helps.
Best luck.

Incorrect Schema
Hi I have recently noticed that by mistake our eCommerce site was incorrectly using the schema mark up featured product sliders, upsells and category pages. Example: Im aware that google is not a fan of misusing the mark ups. Would the above have a negative effect on rankings?

Hiding Elements on Mobile. Will this effect SEO.
Hey guys and gals, I am hiding elements with @media sizes on the mobile experience for this site. http://prepacademyschools.org/ My question is when hiding elements from mobile, will this have a negative effect on rankings for mobile and or desktop? Right now it is a hero banner and testimonial. My interest is because I feel responsive is now working against conversions when it comes to mobile because desktop typically has the same info several times where mobile it can be repetitive and only needed once. Thanks,

SERPs Help
Hey Mozzers, Please can someone advise? I manage the on-line content for an estate of Gyms in the UK. We had an existing gym location in Birmingham - www.nuffieldhealth.com/gyms/birmingham and 5 months ago we opened a new location in Birmingham - www.nuffieldhealth.com/gyms/birmingham-central. The 2 pages have different in-page content, different H1's, different title tags, different citations in page both have a few back links from different root domains, however the 2nd page (birmingham-central) does not rank in the top 50 results even though our domain is strong that the vast majority of results? Our original page (/gyms/birmingham) also slipped from page 1 in SERPs to the bottom of page 2 when the second Birmingham gym page was deployed?? I am guessing Google does not know which page to serve in SERPs, bud i am at a lose as to how to fix this issue. Can anyone please advise?? Regards Ben

Why is this site performing so well in the SERP's and getting high traffic volume for no apparent reason!
The site is https://virtualaccountant.ie/ It's a really small site They have only about 7 back links, They don't blog They don't have a PPC campaign They don't stand out from the crowd in terms of product or services offered So why are they succeeding in topping the SERP's for difficult to rank for accounting keywords such as accountant and online accounts. What are they doing better than everyone else, or have they discovered a way to cheat Google, and worse still - ME!

Will aggregating external content hurt my domain's SERP performance?
Hi, We operate a website that helps parents find babysitters. As a small add- on we currently run a small blog with the topic of childcare and parenting. We are now thinking of introducing a new category to our blog called "best articles to read today". The idea is that we "re-blog" selected articles from other blogs that we believe are relevant for our audience. We have obtained the permission from a number of bloggers that we may fully feature their articles on our blog. Our main aim in doing so is to become a destination site for parents. This obviously creates issues with regard to duplicated content. The question I have is: will including this duplicated content on our domain harm our domains general SERP performance? And if so, how can this effect be avoided? It isn't important for us that these "featured" articles rank in SERPs, so we could potentially make them "no index" sites or make the "rel canonical" point to the original author. Any thoughts anyone? Thx! Daan

Beaten in SERP's by a site going 'all in' on 2 keywords in their anchor text profile.
I would like to get peoples thoughts on putting 80% of your anchor text links in just 2 keywords vs a nice spread of branded and longtail keywords.. like I am. recently fell off the first page for a key SERP.. and the site in P10 has gone nuts on just that two keyword's.. I know we have a good site onpage/ conversion / low bounce rate page views etc.. Pretty sure we get more traffic than them. Seems that this obvious bloated anchor text profiling has worked for them though.. What do you guys think/know?
