Indexing issues within a site directory?

    Good morning folks, hope you’re all well.

    We’re seeing some unusual search results for the URL submitted with this request. Essentially, when you search the company name, you don’t see any of the text put into Yoast (that has in turn gone correctly into the title and meta description tags). What you see instead, is the alt text for the main logo.

    Reproduction steps

    1. Google/Bing ‘Riverside Bifolds’
    2. Confirm the title on the first (homepage) result as ‘Riverside Bifolds Logo’
    3. View the source of the homepage, see the title should in fact be ‘Aluminium Doors Southampton | Aluminium Entrance Doors Hampshire’

    Suspicion

    Do you believe it may have something to do with the fact the site operates on [www.domain.com] but the site fundamentally sits within a directory? The admin area of the site sits at [www.domain.com/wp/wp-admin].

    Would love to hear any ideas you folks may have.

    Kris

    Hello Kris,

    Thanks for reaching out about your site’s search appearance. I can confirm the homepage SEO title is Aluminium Doors Southampton | Aluminium Entrance Doors Hampshire in the page source, but Riverside Bifolds Logo in search results.

    Though you have the right SEO title, Google is yet to reflect that in their index. Have you?added your site to Google Search Console? Then, you could?request indexing?so Google can update their index.
