USA appears in search snippet
-
Buongiorno from 14 degrees C very cloudy Wetherby UK,
When I type "Dartex Coatings" in Google i get a search snippet with USA in the description. See illustration: http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc53/zymurgy_bucket/usa-indescription-2_zps42296e0a.jpg I cannot see where this is comming from on site http://www.dartexcoatings.com/ . HAving checked the souce code there is no reference to USA
So my question is please..."where is Google picking up USA from"?
Grazie,
David -
Yes that was the only line i could see with a src link to USA. Thank you

Well when I look at the Dartex coatings site I can see it has no meta description, which means you are forcing Google to create their own description for the page. The page does have an image with USA in the source:
src="/Dartex/media/Dartex-usa/General/dartex-home_1.jpg?width=940&height=300&ext=.jpg" title="New Care Range" />
This has lead Google to the association with the US site:
I would put in a proper description for the page and see if Google then picks that up.

Brand Appearing in the Meta tilte by default
Hi All, Has anyone experienced the home page meta title indexed with their Brand coming up first before their actual Meta title? I know google overrides the meta title sometimes when the title is not relevant, I understand that. This just started happening 6 months ago. I thought I would leave it to see if it get corrected. but no luck! Any suggestions? Many thanks

Google indexing Internal Search Results
Greeting, Currently I have noticed that Google is starting to index our internal search page results. Should I block those pages in our robot txt file or have you ever heard of any websites that actually gained traffic or rank by letting Google index those pages? Thanks
