Hi daniel,

You don't rectify it directly.

Correct the page. Then go to Alexa, enter the sitename.com and click on "overview". You'll come to a page "about" sitename.com.

Scroll to the bottom and click "correct errors" to this page or listing - the next page will have a "Update thumbnail" link. Click it :)

Then I find a small country specific Google, like Google Hong Kong, and submit url there. [google.com.hk...]

Google indexes its search engines more often than it indexes your site; and those smaller Googles index their submitted urls a heck of a lot sooner than the .com - so submitting to them will get you back on and corrected at .com sooner than resubmitting directly to it...

Googlebot would pick it up anyway. Some other search engines never change title or description once indexed which is a pain if your title or description becomes out of date and needs changing.
