    Hi,

    Thank you for your reply.

    Here is the screenshot link as requested.

    As in the screenshot, you can see the search results for my website, the very first search result is not displaying the favicon / logo and the website name, instead the url is being shown

    I don’t know where exactly the issue lies

    Thanks for the screenshot, @primea. By default, the Yoast SEO plugin will use the name of your WordPress site as the website name, as indicated in WordPress > Settings > General. If you want a different name to be displayed in the search results, you can change the site name in the field WordPress > Yoast SEO > Settings > General > Site Basics > Website name. This will overwrite the default WordPress site name in the structured data code that Yoast SEO outputs for the?name?of the?WebSite.

    In addition to controlling the site name, you can also control the output for the alternateName structured data by filling in the “Alternate website name” field. Like name, this is a property of the WebSite structured data. Here, you can enter a (potentially shorter) alternate name for your website. You can read more here.

    I ran the?homepage URL?through?Google’s rich result test tool, and the Yoast SEO plugin outputs the necessary schema required by Google.?See screenshot.

    You may post a question in the Google Search Central Help Community regarding this.

    Thanks for the reply @maybellyne

    i have checked both yoast SEO and WordPress settings as mentioned by you in your reply, it appears to be correct. I have even updated the icon in WordPress settings as well as inserted the code in the header section. I have an indexing request but still both the title as well as the icon is not updated in search results
