I changed my entire blogs title tag structure a few days ago and today I've found that a number of my latest blog entries have been dropped from the Google index. I simply changed the layout in the title tag from: [blog name] :: [blog post title] to [blog post title] :: [blog name] I didn't think this could cause Google to actually drop my pages from the index. Any idea how long it might be until Google reindexes these? Excellent post – pretty much confirms what I have just seen. I changed my entire blogs title tag structure a few days ago and today I’ve found that a number of my latest blog entries have been dropped from the Google index.

I simply changed the layout in the title tag from: [blog name] :: [blog post title]
to
[blog post title] :: [blog name]

I didn’t think this could cause Google to actually drop my pages from the index.

Any idea how long it might be until Google reindexes these?

My rule is always, if it's a title that wouldn't get me to pay attention, it won't get anybody to pay attention, and I try to stay away from overused phrases that wouldn't be used in a conversation...
