Google is indexing Menu with every title.

Hi there,

I'm not exactly sure what you mean.

But about Google Indexing:

You can refer to this article - https://www.hostinger.ph/tutorials/prevent-search-engines-from-indexing-wordpress - which is applicable to all WordPress sites regardless of theme.

Reminder: The theme doesn't control how or which pages gets indexed by Google as it doesn't edit robots.txt nor the default Search engine visibility text box. Also, it's really up to Google's crawler bots how or what pages they want to crawl once you open the site up for indexing.

Hi Elvin

I please check the URLs in Google, you will see Menu- along with title which I have not mentioned in the Titles in both the URLs. Why Menu is getting indexed in front of titles in search results, that is the question.

I see now.

That's usually fetched from <title> tag.

Perhaps at some point prior to Rankmath's installation on your site, you had Menu as the Site title on Appearance > Site Identity and Google crawler bots fetched that.

If you've already sorted this w/ Rankmath or from Appearance > Site Identity, the next step would be to ask Google to re-crawl your site and wait for Google to update it.
