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?

Multiple Versions of Mobile Site
Hey Guys, We have recently finished the latest version of our mobile site which means currently we have 2 mobile sites. Depending on what device and Os will depend on which site you will be presented with.
White Hat / Black Hat SEO | | seekjobs
e.g.
iPhone 3 or 4 users on iOS4 will get version 1 of our mobile site
iPhone 5 users on iOS5 will get the new version (version 2) of our mobile site. Our old mobile site is currently indexed in Google and performing pretty well.
Since the launch of the second mobile site we have not see any major changes to our visibility in Google and so was curious My main concern here is duplicate content so I am curious can Google detect that we have 2 mobile site that we serve depending on device? And if Google can detect this, why has our sites not been penalized! Thanks, LW I know the first thing that comes to your mind is Duplicate content0 -

Why Proved Spammers are on 1st Google SERP's Results
This question is related exclusively to few proved spammers who have gained 1st Google search results for specific terms in the Greek market, targeting Greek audience. Why he looks spammer and very suspicious? For instance, the site epipla-sofa.gr, sofa.gr, fasthosting.gr and greekinternetmarketing.com look suspicious regarding their building link activities: 1. suspicious spiky link growth 2. several links from unrelated content (unrelated blog posts forom other markets, paid links, hidden links) 3. excessive amount of suspicious link placements (forum profiles, blog posts, footer and sidebar links) 4. Greek anchor text with the keyword within articles written in foreign languages (total spam) 5. Unnatural anchor text distribution (too many repetitions) So the main question is: Why Google is unable to recognize/trace some of these (or even all) obvious spamming tactics and still these spammy sites as shwon below reside on the 1st Google.gr SERPs. Examples of spam sites according to their link building history: www.greekinternetmarketing.com www.epipla-sofa.gr www.fasthosting.gr www.sofa.gr All their links look very similar. They use probably software to build links, or even hack authority sites and leave hidden links (really dont know how they could do that). Could you please explain or share similar issues? Have you ever found any similar cases in your industry, and how did you tackle it? We would appreciate your immediate attention to this matter. Regards, George

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?
