    Hello,

    In order to replicate the issue I am facing, please go to this link: https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Abowemans.com&oq=site%3Abowemans.com&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i58.3089j0j1&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

    In rank math settings, I have configured my blog posts to show as “%title% | Bowemans” and pages as “%title%” only.

    However, as you can see from the link above, the blog posts are showing with the title “Intellectual Property | Amazon Sellers Services – Bowemans”

    Second, for each search result snippet, I have manually added a description on each individual indexable page and blog post. With the exception of the Home page, first result at the top, google is picking descriptions at random and ignoring the custom description i added manually.

    More specifically, for each relevant page/post, on the shema tab, I have manually worded the schema—inserting exactly what I would like to see in search result. For example, while my blog post page titles show as “%title% | Bowemans”, I have configured the Schema to show “%title” only for the heading. In search result, this is not being applied. What am i missing.

    Third, I cannot find my local seo result although I have properly set it up.

    Kindly try to read and properly understand my inquiry, then properly assist/explain. I have spent several hours trying to resolve these issues to no remedy really. I would appreciate it very much if you demonstrate concern.

    Thank you for reading.

    Bowemans.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    Even if you have the correct meta description and title set up exactly how you want is entirely up to the Google algorithm to decide whether it will show that or not depending on the search term and location.

    Here’s an article where we go over this situation: https://rankmath.com/kb/different-meta-title-and-description/

    Also, recently Google changed the way it outputs the titles on SERPs and you can read more about it here: https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2021/08/update-to-generating-page-titles

    Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any other questions.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    My inquiry clearly states three issues I am facing. Your response shows a total lack of concern on your part—it is a shame.

    I poitely asked that you read and make an attempt to get to the root of my issues.

    For example; a blog post that has the heading “Chinese Defendants: You’ve got mail!” appears in search results with the heading “Intellectual Property | Amazon Sellers Services – Bowemans”. This is an anomaly. Unless you lack knowledge, you cannot soundly say that it is up to google to decide the heading for my blog posts. If that were the case, then why should anyone bother with writing a heading at all?! This point illustrates your failure to even try to look into my three issues with keenness. I kindly ask you to do better. Go back, read my inquiry, and address each issue in turn after having looked at the same.

    I am relinking the search results below. Simply copy-paste the entire thing to replicate the issue:

    Hello,

    I checked the posts with the search title “Intellectual Property | Amazon Sellers Services – Bowemans” and all off them have redirects from the URLs that Google has cached to the once they currently have. This redirect issue seems to be affecting how the titles are rendered. Please resubmit the current URLs of the posts/pages using the Google Search Console URL inspection tool and wait for Google to recrawl and reindex them.

    Second, for each search result snippet, I have manually added a description on each individual indexable page and blog post. With the exception of the Home page, first result at the top, google is picking descriptions at random and ignoring the custom description i added manually.

    For this issue I will fall back to the explanation that Google is choosing a description they believe to be more appropriate for your pages. In addition to the article linked in our previous reply, you can refer to this one too: https://www.searchenginejournal.com/google-rewrites-meta-descriptions-over-70-of-the-time/382140/

    Third, I cannot find my local seo result although I have properly set it up.

    I checked your homepage on the Google Rich Results test and the localBusiness schema was there: https://search.google.com/test/rich-results/result?id=di4goejMFE2As4Q75E187w

    Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have questions.
