When outdated or incorrect information appears in Google search results, it's often because Google hasn't crawled your site recently. Here's how to fix this:

Request a Recrawl Using Google Search Console

1. Submit your website to Google Search Console
2. Request reindexing when you notice:
   • New content not showing up
   • Updated content or titles not reflecting changes
   • Modified meta descriptions not appearing
   • Deleted pages still showing in results

Improve Search Result Display

• Add accurate meta descriptions and SEO tags
• Keep content up-to-date and relevant
• Ensure proper page indexing settings

Managing Sitelinks Sitelinks are automatic sub-listings that appear under certain search results. While you can't directly control them, Google generates these based on:

• Website traffic
• Site structure
• User behavior
• Content relevance

Other Search Engines For other search engines like Bing:

• Use Bing Webmaster Tools
• Follow similar reindexing procedures
• Submit sitemap updates

Best Practices

• Regularly monitor search appearances
• Keep content fresh and accurate
• Maintain proper site structure
• Use clear, descriptive URLs
• Implement proper redirects for changed content

Remember that search engine updates can take time to process, typically a few days to several weeks depending on your site's crawl frequency.
