Welcome to the Q&A Forum

All good stuff.  I must admit I am ignorant around the Open Directory Information and how it impacts Google display Information.

I’ve put in a request with DMOZ.  I’ll be adding the meta tag you suggested, and I’ll reach out to our Communications team to see if they have the ability to edit legacy company’s old Wiki page.  Fingers crossed.

I’ll continue to dig through the links Patrick provided.

I’m a team of one – so really have no one to bounce ideas off of - it’s great to be able to reach out to people that have some real tangible knowledge.  Thanks again and if any other ideas feel free to pass them along.

Thank you both!

Linda, yes the 'legacy company' is still in listed in Wikipedia and DMOZ.  What would the best course of action be, attempting to delete those profiles?  Update them?  I know both have stringent rules, why i ask.

Thanks Patrick for the response and the helpful links, much appreciated.

Really strange, as our site has been live for just over three years and gets over 150,000 visits a month. I give that context, to highlight that the site is not new and has some traction.

The company we acquired - which is appearing in the display - site was shut down over two years ago, their old domain redirects to ours now.  We’ve done this with several other companies we’ve acquired as well.  I'm not sure why this one is percolating to the surface and showing in our results.

I’ll read away, the information you sent and hopefully can find a nugget.  Thanks again.

When I search any term for my organization, we are getting good results BUT the company name, next to the results URL is of an orgnization we acquired many years back and not the name of our company.  The  URL is correct page JUST the company name next to this URL is incorrect on the Google search results page.

How do I go about changing so the company name next to the URL ?
