Rails app title displays on localhost, not online

I have made a web app based off the tutorial by Michael Hartl, and the title tags all work on my localhost (after running rails console), but when I put it online (here), the titles don't display. It defaults to the titles by hover ("Domains Made Simple").

My app is hosted through Heroku.

Edit 1

Here is my app/views/layouts/application.html.erb: 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title><%= full_title(yield(:title)) %></title>
    <%= stylesheet_link_tag    "application", media: "all" %>
    <%= javascript_include_tag "application" %>
    <%= csrf_meta_tags %>
    <%= render 'layouts/shim' %>    
  </head>
  <body>
    <%= render 'layouts/header' %>
    <div class="container">
      <% flash.each do |key, value| %>
        <div class="alert alert-<%= key %>"><%= value %></div>
      <% end %>
      <%= yield %>
      <%= render 'layouts/footer' %>
      <%= debug(params) if Rails.env.development? %>
    </div>
  </body>
</html>

Edit 2

Here is the app/helpers/application_helper.rb that contains the full_title method:

module ApplicationHelper     
  def full_title(page_title)  
    base_title = "Shoulak Predictions"  
    if page_title.empty?  
      base_title  
    else  
      "#{base_title} | #{page_title}"  
    end
  end
end

Update

Off a hunch, and based off the comment by Alen, I changed the beginning of my app/views/layouts/application.html.erb to be <title>Shoulak Predictions</title>. It is still overridden by Hover's "Domains Made Simple".

It's because your domain provider actually hosts its own webpage at your domain, and puts your website in a frameset. You should instead point your domain at your Heroku app, as described in this guide.
