    Dear Rank Math,

    My site on google is showing Page Title – Site Name – Site Name (basically twice). I am not sure where it is being picked up from as on the plugin and settings it shows Page – Site Name and same on previews as well.

  • Hi,

    Thanks for getting in touch with us.

    Google seems to be considering that last part as your brand name and adding it automatically.

    That’s completely normal for Google to include your brand name in the title’s automatically – even if you deliberately leave them out from your titles.
    ​
    ​Here’s an article mentioning that as well.

    ​And a link to Google’s forums with replies from Experts saying that it is like that on purpose:

    If you wish to know Google’s guidelines on writing Good titles, here are the guidelines straight from the horse’s mouth:

    ​
    ​With that said, it largely depends on keyword intent too. For some keyword searches, your custom title might appear while for others – Google might append your brand name to the title and there is nothing you can do to force them to do otherwise. That is regardless of what SEO plugin you use.

    You can remove the %sitename% part from your titles so it doesn’t appear twice when Google adds it automatically.
    ​
    ​Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
