Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi, This is a new one to me ?! I recently added some 301 redirects from pages that I've removed from my site.  Most of them just redirect to my home page, whilst a few redirect to appropriate replacement pages.  The odd thing is that when I now search my keywords googles serp shows my website with a title that was on some of the old (now removed and redirected) pages. Is this normal?  If so, how should I prevent this from happening?  What is going on? The only reasons I set up the redirects was to collect any link juice from the old pages and prevent 404s. Should I remove the 301s? I fetched as google and submitted - to see if that updates the tags. (not been indexed yet) Any help would be appreciated. Kind Regards Tony
