Google Search revealing odd information

Hi there,
Wondering if anyone out there can help, as with a lot of these queries I'm a newbie :) ..
I have googled my wordpress site (Using a thematic child theme, Neutica) and it comes up with my domain but then is followed by information carried over from my hosting company "Cheap Domain Name Registration and Transfers, SSL.."

How do I get rid of this? I looked in Header.php to see if something was in there but no luck.

My hosting company suggested it was either Malware or I needed to "configure my page title within WordPress". How do I do that?

Thanks

Hi moodle,

I think that what has happened tis that Google indexed your domain for search when it had the hosting company's domain parking page showing. If this is indeed the case when the googlebot crawls your site next it will update search results that are more current to the recent changes you've made on your domain. If you want to have more control over how Google indexes your domain sign up for it's webmaster tools
