Google is changing my title. How can I fight back?

Can you make your website title related to your content. If its not possible can you possible can you add more content. Is your title is keyword stuffed ? Is it look like title really ? Can you share URL with us ?

My title has always been my business name followed by a few keywords. Recently I have been optimizing for a keyword in a different city. Google has changed my title to the keyword with the city name. I would love to have my business name back.

Hi Kristopher,
Could you please mention what the title of the website is?
Most likely, Google believes that it might be too spammy for its search results, so I am assuming it's just returning the company name as the title tag?
This is quite common but can be fixed.

Will Google discount new gTLDs?
I have the opportunity now to acquire a very desirable generic domain name with either the .org or .pro TLD. Obviously, the .pro version I can get for a far better price. The .org will probably end up being about 10x the price of the .pro. I feel like the .org would give me instant clout while the .pro might raise eyebrows. Also, I'm concerned that Google might also discount these new gTLDs. What do you guys think? Is the perceived authority of the old-time TLDs something worth investing in? Or will this fizzle away over time as the new gTLDs flood the market? THanks! Ira

Google doesnt index my Google+ Profile
Hey guys! I know it sounds like a novice question, but I have checked ALL THE BOXES THAT TELL GOOGLE TO INDEX MY GOOGLE+ PROFILE. It is Visible for search - 100%. It's been 3 weeks since I opened a Google+ profile and it still hasn't been indexed for its name. Any guesses what's going on? (It's not this name so don't try to google me)

Did google change their algorithm over the past week?
I did some home page optimization with the seo moz on page key word optimization tool and we are now back in the top three in the past week (after dropping to page 3 a month or so ago). It seems that google has gone back to combining google places with organic searches. Has anyone else noticed this type of change? I did read some posts about panda 2.2, which seems to explain some of these findings. I am wondering if things are in flux or they may be more stable this way? Thanks for the insights.
