Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to us with your question about displaying the website name in Google search results.
Using an apostrophe (‘), or any special character, in your website name might not guarantee that Google will display it as the site name in the search results. Google determines the site name based on various factors such as the title tag, H1 header tag, Open Graph metadata, and structured data on your site.
To ensure that Google displays your website name correctly, it is recommended to follow the guidelines mentioned in our knowledge base article on how to display your site name in search results.
If you want Google to show your website name instead of the URL, make sure to provide a consistent and clear site name across your website and optimize the relevant areas where Google looks for the site name.
If you have any further questions or need assistance with optimizing your site name for search results, please feel free to ask. We are here to help!
Best regards.

Hello,
Thank you for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
You can use the apostrophe (') on your site name without any issues. However, we suggest you check the Google documentation on site-name: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/site-names
As is mentioned in the documentation, this process is automated by the algorithm, and even though it takes into account the information on the website, it is still not guaranteed that your site name will come up correctly in Google SERPs since it’s solely decided by Google what they found relevant and user-friendly and which one they want to show.

Hope this helps and please don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any other questions.
Thank you.
