      Hi Guys,

      I am frustrated here! I have changed my title tag so that I get a much better CTR. But I changed it a week ago and it is still howing the old title tag in the SERPS.

      Can anyone please tell me how long Google can take to show the new title tag in the search results??

      Can it take weeks??

      Thanks guys

      Gareth

        Hi Gareth,

        It can take a couple of weeks, depending on how often Google visits your site to check for changes/updates. Try a quick cache search to see when they last visited:

        Search 'cache:htttp://www.yourdomain.com/'

        You could also check Webmaster Tools to see how often the spiders are crawling your site.

        Hope that helps,
        Greg

          Hi GAZ09,

          It usually takes  24H if you use 'Fetch as Google', but if your new title tag 'seams' spammy and unnatural it can take even one year 🙂

          Take a look at this:
