Site showing up wrong in Google listings

My site:

WAHCheck.com

has disappeared from the search engine results. It used to be around page 5 and at times it was on page 1 for certain keywords.

Now, I noticed the title in the search results only shows WAHCHECK rather than my page title of:

Work From Home | Legitimate Work At Home Jobs | Work At Home Reviews

It has shown properly in the search results for years. What has happened? Why is the title now only showing as WAHCHECK? I have other sites that are having similar issues. What is wrong on Google? Does anyone know what is going on or how to get this fixed?

Thank you

      Thanks everyone for the input.

      Go to Google and type in wahcheck.com and you will see the title is wrong.

        Your site is showing exactly the way google wants to show it.

        Depending on how one searches, google will tweak it.

        If you search for it the way you suggest, there is no reason for google
        to show the page title.

        You are just mixing up ways to search. There really is no reason to show
        the page title when searching for wahcheck.com.

        If I've said it once, I'll say it again. You can't force google to show what
        you want if they don't want to. But in this case they are showing the
        search result in the most relevant way. There is no text on your page
        that says wahcheck.com. Google likes to show search terms in the
        results. So, what are they going to choose off of your page? In most
        searches like this, they will not show the title in the normal way.

        Do a search for the terms as Yukon suggests to get the page in the
        SERPS somehow, and voila! Title shows!

        If you were disappointed in your results today, lower your standards tomorrow.

          Thanks Paul. However, I have never seen Google "tweak" any title tag based on the search. I can search for any other of my sites using the domain and Google always shows the title tag. That is why this is very strange and did no occur until just recently.

          Thanks again,
          Scott
