Google now automatically adding (NAME).UK.COM to the end of each page title

[JamesPearce]

We're on a .uk.com subdomain (scientifica.uk.com). Now, at the end of each page title, Google is automatically adding 'Scientifica - UK.COM'.

So a lot of our results now appear as [Page title] - Scientifica - UK.COM

It looks a bit a mess and I'm worried about our CTR.

Can anyone shed some light on this or know how to stop it?

Thank you

Hey Ryan,

Thanks for your response! Yes, that makes sense.

I will give it a go!

Thanks for your help!

Hello James. The current titles I'm seeing are pretty short, for example, your title on the resources page is simply, "Resources"  As a general guide, consider how your title tags stand completely on their own. "Resources" is so vague that Google is adding information that--net effect--is probably helping your CTR.  You can make your title tags more specific and longer and they'll either end in a ellipsis (...) or not have anything appended.
