If we search for our brand name or any keywords that relate to our website, the first words to appear in the title shown in the Google result preview follow this format:

Brand Name: Title

Here's a screenshot:



I am using Yoast WordPress SEO, and each of the pages are not optimized the same as the above result.

Here's the WordPress code:

<title><?php wp_title('&laquo;', true, 'right'); ?> <?php bloginfo('name'); ?></title>


If we comment out the PHP code inside the title, the page itself has no title then.

I wanted to have the title first, followed by the brand name in the search results.

In the SEO section of your Admin, navigate to: SEO → Titles & Metas

Make sure you have the title variable followed by the sitename variable, as pictured below. To see what each variable is for, see the bottom of the settings page:
