I have read the documentation...
I understand that google ads words at page tiles as you say in documentation.
I have look at you site :
1: google is adding an extra "- Weeblr" at the end of page title
2: your main page title is : sh404SEF and Josetta: SEO and content extensions for Joomla! but google is indexing as Weeblr.
and the examples can continue.

Now.. my questions is: where takes google this text string?
I also have the same problem.. and even i cant get rid of it.. at least tell me where is that text string.. to put what i want . In my case is another word.. but if you tell me where takes weeblr.. i can find on my site.
I have tried everything ..to change the home name in breadcrums.. the site name..

Hi

Google knows you whole site. It does not "take" that string from anywhere you put it. It decides alone that company maybe is not famous enough and it's better to add the name of the company at the end of the title, when the title is short.

Google understand language (with some limit). For instance on our site, we have :

Copyright (c) 2011 - 2015 - Weeblr,llc

It means this site belongs to a company called "Weeblr llc". BUt we also display a logo and some other text and so Google has understood that usually, we want the company to be called "Weeblr", not "Weeblr llc"; And so they use that.

You cannot decide what Google do. They decide and they can add a word. Or they can decide to remove some words.
Or they can decide to use a completely different title, that they will build based on text found on your site.

The only thing you can do is provide good, short titles that relate to your content, and normally they will use it.

Ok.. i understand.
Anyway.. is doing that even when title is not short.

I have seen that when you type in google: weeblr.com
google suggest another domain.
I have read something about that on forums. do you know how much time takes google to recognize the domain ?
i mean.. even to recognize it in autocomplete ... or stop suggesting other domain

Hi

This is something entirely different. It's basically spellchecking. Because weeblr looks a lot like weebly, which is a very large and very famous company in about the same domain, Google suggests weebly as a possible typo ofr the user.

It's already improving: in the first week, Google would directly send users to the weebly results, only saying in small characters "click here if you really wanted to search for weeblr".

It's not really a matter of time. it's a matter of how many people will say they actually want to see results for weeblr, and also weeblr gaining more importance, more backlinks, more Facebook and twitter citations, and more traffic. Then Google will decide that people are actually searching for weeblr and not weebly.

It seems backlinks are so important
