SEO Rank Math showing a Meta Mess!

Hello,

I apologize for the inconvenience you are facing with the meta titles and descriptions not showing correctly on Google for your product categories.

To address the issue with the meta titles not displaying as expected, it’s essential to ensure that the meta titles and descriptions you’ve set using Rank Math are correctly configured. Sometimes Google may choose to display a different title based on various factors.

Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Check What You Have Set Using Rank Math: Verify that the meta title and description you’ve added through Rank Math are correctly set. You can refer to this guide on how to set product meta descriptions using Rank Math.
2. Ensure Your Schema Settings Are Valid: Valid schema settings can impact how Google displays your content in search results.
3. Check the Title/Description Set in the Page’s Source Code: Verify that the title and description set in the source code match your intended meta information.
4. The Latest Version of Your Page Hasn’t Been Indexed: Sometimes Google may not have indexed the latest version of your page, which can affect how your meta information appears in search results.

If after checking these steps, the issue persists, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Warm regards,
Rank Math Support Team

Hello,

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

We checked and can see that the title and description you have set is different from what is shown in the Google Search result page.

Please note that it is common for Google to do this nowadays. Even when everything is fine, Google may choose to display a different meta title and description for a search result.

Google sometimes adjust the title and description according to the search intent. Google may choose to display a different meta title for search query results.

Google may sometimes ignore the custom metadata you have set and instead display something from the page’s content that better matches the search intent.

Hello,

It appears Google is taking the title from the first <h1> title on the page, where Elementor is outputting your internal WordPress product name.

You can prevent Google from scraping your content to be shown for result by setting your max-snippets to 0. You can make this change for this specific product or for all products via Rank Math > Title & Meta > Products. You can learn more about the max-snippet rule here.

We hope this helps you resolve the issue. Don’t hesitate to contact us again with any other questions or concerns regarding Rank Math. We are always happy to help.

Thank you for choosing Rank Math!
