Re: Page Titles appear in web search results as, e.g. " :Home "

> When I search for content that I know will appear on some of our non-profit organization's pages, the search result comes up as a colon followed by the page title, e.g. :Home, :-Staff, :Volunteer, etc.

> I thought that this was connected to the page title showing up this way as the title of the browser window in which a given page from our site appears, the same as listed above. So I added our organization's name in the blank provided for "Browser Title" in the "General Settings" section of the "Admin" menu. Now the browser window is titled correctly: "Organization Name: Page".

It really depends on how often the search engine spiders your site. You could try re-submitting your site or updating your sitemap (if you use one). Also, if you have the revist-after meta tag, you could change the time there, too.
