   Hello matty_40rulz,

   Open up /wp-content/themes/infocus/header.php and on line 6 you should see this,

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

   What this does is bring in your page / post title first following by the blog name which is what I think you are seeing.. You can try changing it like this,

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

   Do you have any SEO plugins installed? They could be changing it also.

   Hi,

   Yes it makes a difference, because the plugin is probably replacing the original title.

   Take a look at the documentation of the plugin, and you will surely find the instructions to edit the website title.

   Here you have a guide on SEO, written by the author of Yoast: http://yoast.com/articles/wordpress-seo/
