    Hello,

    I have an issue with the Meta Title of some of my articles that rank in Google. For some reason, the SEO title shows a category that I don’t have in the SEO Title in the Yoast SEO Plugin. In fact, the article is not even the category that it shows in the SEO title in Google.

    Here’s a screenshot of the problem. This is how the meta title shows up in Google Search Results. Dog Beds is a category that shouldn’t be there.

    This is the screenshot of how I set up the SEO title in the Yoast SEO Plugin.

    As you can see, there is just a title, separator and site title. But it shows category in the Google search results for some reason. I hope you can help me with that.

    Upon reviewing the screenshots, I can see that you searched for a keyword or phrase which means Google scans the index for that exact word or phrase. Google uses the search term to highlight information in search results which is why the information is different than what you entered into the plugin.

    To see the meta title and description without search term manipulation, use the site search operator followed immediately by the URL of your site.
