Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with your website title and meta-description not appearing correctly in search results. This can happen for several reasons, even if you’ve set everything up correctly in Rank Math and WordPress.
Here are some common reasons why Google might not be using the title and meta-description you provided:
- Relevance and Quality: If the meta description is not deemed relevant or useful, or if it lacks quality (e.g., just a collection of keywords), Google may choose to display alternative text.
- Duplicate Meta Descriptions: If the same meta description is used across multiple pages, Google might opt for different content.
- Search Intent: Sometimes, the meta description may not match what users are searching for, leading Google to select other content from your page that it finds more relevant.
You can check if your settings in Rank Math are correct by following these steps:
- Ensure that you have set the SEO Meta Title & Description correctly using the Rank Math plugin.
- Verify that your schema settings are valid.
- Check the title and description set in the page’s source code to ensure they match what you’ve configured in Rank Math.
- Confirm that the latest version of your page has been indexed by Google.

Hello,
We checked your page and we can see Rank Math is generating the correct meta title and description. You can also check by using https://rankmath.com/tools/meta-tag-analyzer/ and https://www.heymeta.com/
However, please note that nowadays, Google does that very commonly. Even when everything is fine, Google may choose to display a different meta title and description for your search query result. Google may skip the custom metadata you have set and instead display something from the page’s content that better matches the search intent.
