    Hi!

    As the title says. My website has the setting turned off for the “coming soon” page, yet when i google the full URL, it still says coming soon?

    What’s the website? What exactly are you referring to? Google’s title/description for your listing?

    Without knowing more details, all I can really tell you is Google’s cache doesn’t update automatically when you update your content. If you “turned off”, or otherwise removed/replaced the “coming soon” content, it takes some time for the Google’s cache to update.

    If this is what you’re referring to, and have Google Webmaster Tools setup, you can request a recrawl to help move things along.

    My website is DailyLifePhilosophy.com.

    And yes, so I’ve launched the website officially through WordPress as it had the “Coming Soon” page showing.

    I was curious as to if I googled my domain URL, what would be displayed.

    It says my website URL and “Coming Soon!” But takes you to the functional website as expected.

    I also went into the google search console and requested the recrawl as you described.

    Is this all I have to do, or is there somewhere to actually edit that dialogue/display text of “coming soon” to say something else?

    Hope that is more clear!

    Yes, that helps, and that’s most like what was going on (Google’s cache just hadn’t updated yet).

    FWIW, I’m not seeing the coming soon language on your result as of the time of this message. (Example)

    Hi Christopher!

    It seems to have been resolved and you recrawl suggestion must have been correct!

    Thanks!
