    Is there a way to modify this text in the search result listing?

    Heppner Data

    On the old site (heppnerinsurance.com), this area shows “Heppner Group.”

    On the new site (heppnergroup.com), this area shows “heppnergroup.com.”

    The site title is already updated, but it is still showing the site’s domain. How can this be updated?

  • Hello,

    I apologize for the issue you are facing with the text displayed in the search result listing. To modify the text shown in the search results, you need to update the Site Name in your website’s structured data. Here’s how you can do it using Rank Math:

    1. Navigate to your WordPress Dashboard and go to Rank Math SEO.
    2. Enable the Schema module if it’s not already enabled.
      Enable Schema in Rank Math
    3. Head over to Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta → Local SEO.
    4. Fill in the required fields:
      • Person or Company: Specify if the website is operated by an individual or organization.
      • Website Name: Enter the name of the site into this field.
      • Website Alternate Name: If your website is known by another name, enter it here.
      • Person/Organization Name: Enter the name of the person or organization operating the site.
      • Logo: Upload your site logo.
      • URL: Enter the link to your homepage.
    5. Save your changes.
      Scroll down the page and click Save Changes

    Updating this information will help Google display the correct site name in the search results instead of the domain name. After making these changes, you may need to wait for Google to recrawl your site or follow best practices to expedite the process.

    If you need further assistance or encounter any issues during this process, please let us know by replying to this ticket.

    Hello, above instructions did not solve my problem.

    Hello,

    Please note that Google uses a machine learning algorithm to generate the Sitename for your pages based on other information it has collected about your website and your industry.

    We would suggest to keep on mentioning the desired title on both the title of the page and the schema structure (which our plugin automatically adds after configuring the Local SEO settings in Rank Math > Titles & Meta).

    Also, please go through the Google guidelines about the site name to help you increase the chances of displaying the desired site name on the SERP: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/site-names

    Moreover, it is completely up to Google, and even if your site has followed all the guidelines, they can still decide to show a different or no site name. You should keep working on improving your site’s content quality and authority to increase the chances of your site name appearing in the SERPs.

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Hi Reinelle,

    Thank you for your feedback.

    Could you please clarify what that element is called? Theo one we are referring to in the screenshot provided. As far as I know, it is not the SEO title.

    Is it an eyebrow? Inspect element doesn’t have any data.

    Hello,

    The element you referred to in the screenshot you shared is the site name.

    This feature is called Site Name and it’s something that Google is experimenting with.

    Google uses different sources to figure out and show your Site Name on SERPs

    • og:site_name
    • Website structured data (Schema)
    • Content in title elements
    • Heading elements, like H1

    Among them, Rank Math automatically includes og:site_name, meta tag, and the WebSite Schema on your page. You can also check the Google documentation on site-name: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/site-names

    I hope this makes sense and helps you out. If you have any other questions or issues, please feel free to reach out to me.

    Thank you for using Rank Math. Have a wonderful day!
