    Default Google site links showing incorrect category name

    Hi,
    I'm lucky enough to have good site links showing in a Google search (not adwords)
    One that is showing now is called 'The product list' even though the category is named 'Hosiery'
    Any ideas why it might show this for a category link?

    I do have Ceon URI mapping installed recently and working.
    May be the cause but not sure what I could do to find where the words 'the product list' are being pulled from...

    Anyone able to help?
    Example below...

    Google can pull the:
    title
    first words on the page,
    meta description,
    meta keywords,
    url,

    most likely the page contained this words before you changed it, it can take 6 months (!) to get changed.

    if you don't like it, you can submit a removal request (i guess you know how)

    you can try to use developer toolkit to fined if it is in any script

    Thanks for the help eVelt,
    I can only find one reference to the title in the button names, using developer toolkit.
    But think I'll do as you mentioned and see if google changes things over time for me.
    It might have been a renamed category a little while ago, so that have had something to do with it.
    Cheers...
