When sharing on FB or TW a new version of an earlier post, how can I avoid displaying unwanted old t

    When sharing on FB or TW an overhauled and updated version of an earlier post (it was my first one) with a different title, a title that had been subsequently slightly amended in a final version, and what is really unacceptable, the incipit of the earleir post shows up in my State or Twit, though by clicking on the link the new post shows up correctly.
    I trashed my old post and tried again but the problem remained.
    What I am doing wrong?
    Is there something I can do to resolve?

    There’s no way I would ever trash a published post and break the link in the SERPs (search engine page results). I care far more about what’s in search engines than I do about what’s in social networks.

    What is the URL of that post?

    Hi @apelle44, those services use caching and it’s likely the old title is still cached. If you’ll send a link, we’ll see if there’s anything we can do on our end. Cheers :)
