    Looks like Google updated the search engine results with the site name at the top, and mine just shows my domain name. I know Yoast SEO has an area to set this, does AIOSEO? I can’t find it if so. If not, will this be added soon?

    Hey @tovlakas,

    You can set a suggested site name under Search Appearance > Global Settings > Knowledge Graph > Alternate Website Name.

    Feel free to post your domain name so we can take a look and best advise you based on your current schema and other meta data.

    Ok thanks—looks like it’s been set in the primary location since I created the site, so I am not sure why it’s still showing the domain as my site name on google results. Does it take a long time to propagate the site name, even if it was set at the time the site was first indexed with google?

    Hi @tovlakas,

    It can take a while, or Google may even ignore it completely if they don’t think it’s of value in search results. They take it as a suggestion and then decide when or whether to display it. Unfortunately, there’s not way to force them to display it alongside every result.
