My page has been indexed in Google for a long time. I recently rebuilt the site in Freeway and uploaded the site.
The title in Google search results now comes up as “philosophy” (which is the second page) instead of NYC Guitar Lessons which is what it used to be and should be. Any ideas?
To see the cached version of your site on Google go to the Preview area (the >> button to the right of your entry) and click the Cached link.

Actually, when I uploaded it on Friday it was up for an hour or so where the philosophy page file name was index. I changed that but I guess it was crawled during that time. Hopefully it’ll get crawled again soon and the title will be corrected. Does that sound right?
Yep, that sounds like the cause of the problem. You could try using a sitemap (you can make these in Freeway 5.5 Pro using the Site Mapper Action), but the most likely outcome is that the listing won’t be updated until the end of the month. Google can be frustratingly slow at times (and evidently too quick at others).
