How long does it take to seen Title in SERP
-
A friend of mine asked me how long it takes before Google shows the right Title in the SERPs.
He changed the title of his homepage some weeks ago but Google still shows the old Title in the rankings...
I'm a Wordpress user and don't have this problem, when I change something in the title it doesn't take that long to see the changes showing up in SERPs

Great stuff, glad it looks to be sorted. Come back and pop a reply should you need more help!
Good luck!

weeks... just checked sitemap & robots.txt and there was indeed a problem with some pages that were blocked.... thx guys!!!
-
OK, if he hasn't already, he should create a sitemap. This should help speed things up and allow all the pages on the site to be crawled by the bots.
As an example, this is SEOmoz sitemap.
When were the amendments made? Are we talking days or weeks?
-
Probably submit a sitemap once again to google and reduce the crawl frequency to a lower duration.
-
No, the site is online for quite some time, and he told me Googlebot did crawl the page yet...
-
It can depend on how often Google bots crawl his website. When did he make the change? Is it a new site?

Google Website title not showing correctly
Hi Im not sure what triggered this - Page title is showing up as 'Isagenix Australia' while it should be <title>Buy Isagenix with 30 Day money back guarantee & Free Shipping in June</title> Previous title was 'Isagenix Australia - Read Isagenix reviews & buy isagenix products' but now it seems to have a mind of its own. Any suggestions would be helpful

Changing page titles and google penalties?
I just recently learned that changing your page title earns you a google penalty. Unfortunately i learned this after playing around with my page titles a bit to get the most optimal page titles. Does anybody know how long this google penalty lasts? is it forever? or just temporary?

How do you see a list of URLs with duplicate page titles?
When looking at the Duplicate Page Title report, the Other URLs column has various numbers that presumably indicate the number of pages that share the same title. When I click on one of these numbers, say a URL that shows 4 in that column, the next page reports "No sample duplicate URLs to report". Why isn't it showing me the other 3 URLs with the same page title?
