Sitename in Mobile SERPS is Incorrect
-
Our site is being presented in mobile SERPS with a completely wrong sitename. Screenshot is attached.
Despite confirming multiple times that "HYPR Biometrics" does not actually appear anywhere in the back-end, schema markup, or webmaster tools settings - Google still _decides _that this is the site name. It makes no sense at all and is driving us crazy.
What can be done to correct this? I imagine this can be a major issue for companies who are completely misrepresented in SERPs.
Our URL is https://www.hypr.com/
Thanks in advance for any advice.

so weird, Ive checked on multiple friends and family devices and we all see "HYPR Biometrics"
Sitename is NOT "HYPR Biometrics" and should not be. don't know where this is being pulled from.
Would forcing breadcrumbs help overwrite that title?

What's interesting is I changed it months ago. Sitename is NOT "HYPR Biometrics" and should not be. I mean it hasn't been for years. I don't know where this is being pulled from.
Would forcing breadcrumbs help overwrite that title?

Hi There,
Google is generating the website Title and description dynamically in SERPs based on your meta and content. The search you performed is the reason that you are getting the Title and description ( it is available inside your Meta )
The second reason might be that your website is using RSS feed and that helps in the generation of dynamic title and description.
We have faced similar issue in the past and controlling these two factors might just help you have better control over the Title and description of the SERPs.
I hope it helps.
Regards,
Vijay

If you recently changed it, it sometimes takes a couple days to update properly in Google search results. Otherwise thesolution quite naturally would be to change your Wordpress pages title and description, or hopefully you use yoast because you can change it with that as well. Sounds like Gaston is saying it's already updated so you should be good to go, otherwise change it with either of the 2 options I listed~

Hi there!
I think that you are being played and mislead by your own cache/search history.
I've searched that breadcrums didnt appear.
Check the attached image.It is possible tat Google is interpreting that you are trying to show some breadcrumb through your schema markup. Made a quick look and didnt find any code stating anything about breadcrumbs.
It was helpfull this page: Breadcrumb - Schema Markup - Google SearchHope it helps.
Best luck.

Hiding Elements on Mobile. Will this effect SEO.
Hey guys and gals, I am hiding elements with @media sizes on the mobile experience for this site. http://prepacademyschools.org/ My question is when hiding elements from mobile, will this have a negative effect on rankings for mobile and or desktop? Right now it is a hero banner and testimonial. My interest is because I feel responsive is now working against conversions when it comes to mobile because desktop typically has the same info several times where mobile it can be repetitive and only needed once. Thanks,

Can someone explain how a site with no DA, links or MozTrust, MozRank can rank #1 in the SERPs?
I do SEO for a legal site in the UK and one of the keywords I'm targeting is 'Criminal Defence Solicitors'. If you search this term in Google.co.uk this site comes top www.cdsolicitors.co.uk, yet in my mozbar it has 0 links, 0 DA etc, I noticed it top a few weeks ago and thought something spammy was going on; I thought if I was patient, Google would remove it, however it still hasn't. Can someone explain how it is top in the SERPs? I've never seen this before. thanks

Thinking of redirecting *all* mobile traffic to another site (via an advertiser) - safe to do?
Hi, I am thinking of redirecting all mobile (iphone, cell phone, etc) to an advertiser (so completely different content than my site). Is there any risk of getting banned from google (etc) for doing this? (this is for an adult site)

Beaten in SERP's by a site going 'all in' on 2 keywords in their anchor text profile.
I would like to get peoples thoughts on putting 80% of your anchor text links in just 2 keywords vs a nice spread of branded and longtail keywords.. like I am. recently fell off the first page for a key SERP.. and the site in P10 has gone nuts on just that two keyword's.. I know we have a good site onpage/ conversion / low bounce rate page views etc.. Pretty sure we get more traffic than them. Seems that this obvious bloated anchor text profiling has worked for them though.. What do you guys think/know?

Spammy Links, SERPs, and Low Competition Keywords
While I've seen a lot of news about Google cleaning up content farms, link farms, and similar spam, I've also seen some companies start ranking very well for niche terms using these same practices. Question: Does Google completely discount links from content farms and similar sites or simply give them low value? Observation: I've seen a company start ranking well (top 3) for several terms when they used be on page 2. When I looked at their links, they are from article farms, directories, do-follow blogs and similar low-vale sources. Relative to others, they have about 10x the volume of links with the precise anchor text they are targeting. I wonder in absence of other information that these spammy links still count for something. Given the low competition for the term, this is enough to boost their rank. Just thoughts some thoughts as we are working on long-tail strategies for some key terms.
