Google Snippet not showing properly

[prashrocks]

Hey frnds,

it almost 4 months now that i am facing this problem.. I haven't got any solution yet.
I have a Website "Zimboora.com" but from a long time when ever i type Zimboora in Google its shows the wrong title (Snippet) in the Results..

but today when i typed zimboora in google.. my website was on 3re position and not on 1st..

why its decreasing... do i need to do any type of seo.... i m a newbie in all these seo help me...

Google determined that your page is relevant to Zimboora but the title is not. So it decided to make up its own title up.

Try a search like zimboora blogging and you will see Google using your title.

Your currently first in Adelaide, Australia but then Zimboora is a strange word so their won't be much competition.

Is doing well for Zimboora your real aim? Only people who already know you will search for that!

Google's creation of sites' titles and descriptions (or "snippets") is completely automated and takes into account both the content of a page as well as references to it that appear on the web.

We use a number of different sources for this information, including descriptive information in the META tag for each page. Where this information isn't available, we may use publicly available information from DMOZ. While accurate meta descriptions can improve clickthrough, they won't impact your ranking within search results. We frequently prefer to display meta descriptions of pages (when available) because it gives users a clear idea of the URL's content. This directs them to good results faster and reduces the click-and-backtrack behavior that frustrates visitors and inflates web traffic metrics.

While we're unable to manually change titles or snippets for individual sites, we're always working to make them as relevant as possible. You can help improve the quality of the snippets displayed for your pages by providing informative meta descriptions for each page.

Hey Guys,

When ever i change my website's description, google update it in search within a day but whenever i change my title it remains same... no change from last 4 months..

for experiment i have changed description and title of my site 3 times in 3 months, each time the description was updated in google in its search list but the title is still the same...

my website was once effected by w3 total cache plugin... but then i cleared it completely... my site is hosted on wordpress..

@Shefali

No, the original title is Technology 2.0 - Wordpress | How-to | Tutorials

If you type the name of your site in the Google search, of course it's going to show your site name in the title of the results, especially your home page. Why? Because of the information I already provided from Google and changing the title most suited the search performed.

Mine is changed too. A search for my HTML site by name shows the site name, not the title tag I have on the home page.
