Use of apostrophes – page titles, snippets, key words, etc

    I am working on setup up a page entitled Martha’s Vineyard Sunrise Photos, yet the snippet returns Martha’\s Vineyard Sunrise Photos as the title. To further confuse the issue, when defining the focus keyword, I was able to select Martha’s Vineyard from the listing, yet the your SEO plugin can’t reconcile the discrepancy. I have attempted to use the html character &#8217 in the title — which returns the correct title in the snippet, but does not register as a keyword match in the snippet description. Since I can not just ignore the apostrophe in the title (e,g. Marthas Vineyard (incorrect) as opposed to Martha’s Vineyard (correct)), how should this be handled? Is there a way to override the settings? Or are apostrophes not supported by this plugin and/or Google SEO? Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Never mind, I found the solution: you can manually override the suggested SEO title. It’s not completely obvious – at least to us photographer-geek types.
