Dear Support.
I’m having issue with the way my blog posts are showing up in the search results at google. Please see att. image. First of all, the ” – AimHaven.com ” shouldn’t be at the end of my blog posts. I did not fill this in anywhere so I’m not sure why this shows up at the end of my posts.. I just want ” AIMHAVEN ” to be the last part.
The next issue is about the meta description. Also this part, it totally not what I have filled in. I’ve chosen for: %title% PC Game in Direct Link (see Post section in Rank Math Title & Meta), etc etc. Also this is completely different showing up in the results.
What is going wrong here?
Please help me out with this issue.
Thanks in advance
Best regards

Thanks for getting in touch with us.
1. First of all, I am assuming that you have already changed the SEO Meta Title and Meta Description with the help of Rank Math:
Add a Meta Description in Classic Editor:Add title and description in Gutenberg:
2. Then, ensure that this is the setting in the Schema tab if Rich Snippets are enabled on your website:
To reiterate, the Schema title must show %seo_title% and the description should show %seo_description% – this will ensure your SEO title and SEO Description that you set up via Rank Math can also be used for your schema details:
3. The next step is to check if your title/description is properly set up in the page source:
https://i.rankmath.com/HwXR1oYou can use this tool for the same as well: https://www.heymeta.com/
4. If it matches your settings, then you must check if Google has seen the changes already or not.
For that, please check when the Google cache was updated for that page:
a.
b.
If the cache date is from before adding the new meta description, then you just have to wait for Google to re-crawl and re-index the page with the new info. If the date is after you made the changes,
Do note that if everything’s fine and Google still decides to show a different meta title/description for your search keyword, there is nothing you can do as Google sometimes ignores the custom meta info altogether and show something from the page’s content that matches the search intent better.The best you can do is optimize your meta tags to try and match the intent of the search/keyword.

Why the search result title might differ from the page's <title> tagHope that helps. If you have any further question(s), please let us know. Thank you.
Dear Support.
Thanks for this very helpful answer. It’s good!
To come back at your question;
1). Yes I did that and I am aware how it works, but thanks.
2). %seo_title% is a good tip, I was using %title% so I will make that change. About %seo_description%, I’d like to use a standard phrase for the Meta description. So, can I use ”%seo_title% PC Game in Direct Link ..”? That should work also, right?
3) About HEY META, all is set up fine I can see. Do you recommend me to place this generated meta to <head>? Because I think this is already done with using Rank Math. Right or not?
4) But I’m still wondering where this – Aimhaven.com comes from at the end in search results? That shouldn’t be.. I’m using now: %seo_title% %sep% AIMHAVEN. Which is fine, but I dont need this – AimHaven.com also in it. Its double.
Thanks in advance. Waiting for your answer!
Best regards
Hello.
Thanks for all your answers so far.
But one thing remains unsolved: See image at this urL: https://prnt.sc/smq2b0
The part ” – AimHaven.com ” shouldn’t be at the end of my post titles. I never have set this to show up there. This should be only ” >> AIMHAVEN ”
What is causing this issue? Even after deleting cache it remains. Also, I know some posts as you explained in 4), might be different but I see this in 90% of my posts so there should be something wrong with the Rank Math settings/plugin.
Please investigate this.
Waiting for your answer.
Best regards
