PcGeniusProductions Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Hi, I have been building my website using basic titles on the indexable pages under the illusion that when google indexes them, it would display them under the main site title in the results. For example, you type in "help" and it comes up with help.com, then under that, there is a list of links related to that site. But... upon visiting these links, i noticed the link-text does not match the page title. Can someone please help me out of my situation before I launch in October the 5th? I want to be able to name my pages something, and have them indexed (or shown in a "related" list) under something different. Maybe I am missing something, maybe google does not use the page-title for this kind of job, i had the idea that it may even use the "link text" on the home-page. Either way, I am in desperate need of some expert advise as google does not go down too well with 500 word criterias, as i just found out when trying to search for help on this subject. Thanks for any help available. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/126046-page-title/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
rarebit Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 not quite sure, but are you looking for meta 'desc' instead... (description) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/126046-page-title/#findComment-651835 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dropfaith Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 i think he means sitelinks so i took the description from google webmaster tools Sitelinks are additional links Google sometimes generates from site contents in order to help users navigate your site. Google generates these sitelinks periodically from your site's contents. Because we generate sitelinks dynamically, this list can change from time to time. Example Search Result This is an example of what a search result with sitelinks looks like. The sitelinks are displayed below. www.example.com/ - 10k - Cached - Similar pages News Games People and Places About Us Latest Additions Music Photography Movies Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/126046-page-title/#findComment-651836 Share on other sites More sharing options...
