Hi, does anyone know how to change the “Company Name” that Google shows next to the favicon?

For example, for [https://www.realmacsoftware.com/](https://www.realmacsoftware.com/) it shows “[realmacsoftware.com](http://realmacsoftware.com)”, but for [https://forums.realmacsoftware.com](https://forums.realmacsoftware.com) it shows “RapidWeaver Forum”.

I know there are tools for this for WordPress, but I can’t find any for Rapidweaver.

Thank you!

Hey @santi,

Google has a great guide [here](https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/site-names) on how to try and get your site name listed on their SERP.

It mentions the below though:

> Google’s generation of site names on the Google Search results page is completely automated and takes into account content from a site’s home page and references to it that appear on the web.

But you can add the following to your Home page to help Google pick out your preferred site name to display:

1. Add [`WebSite` structured data](https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/site-names#website) to your home page in the header section and include your preferred site name there.
2. Add the Open Graph `og:site_name` meta tag in your home page header section with your preferred site name.
3. Add a title meta tag to your home page header section with your preferred site name.
4. Add an h1 tag to your home page body with your preferred site name.

Doing all that should help Google select the site name you want displayed.

It will take some time for Google to update, but you can request a manual re-indexing if you are using Google Search Console to try and speed things up.

Thank you Dan!

Can that structured data be added with the SEO Helper stack?

How to add the og:site meta tag to the home page?

No problem.

I’m not sure, I haven’t looked at that stack in a while. Probably? Maybe someone here uses it that can chime in and confirm.

@Heroic_Nonsense answered this nicely in this post [Set featured image? - #2 by Heroic\_Nonsense](https://forums.realmacsoftware.com/t/set-featured-image/42811/2)

The last screenshot in his post shows where you can add the meta tag to the home page. It would look something like this:

```auto
<meta property="og:site_name" content="My Website's Name" />

```
