SEO Title

 SEO (Search Engine Optimization) Title Tag Optimization

As mentioned before the title should attract people searching for your business or your service. A title should be 5 to 7 Keywords long. These keywords should be the TOP phrases you think people looking for your business will type into Google.

e.g. If I sell web design in Miami one of the keywords in my title would be Miami Web Design. Even though those are 3 words they are considered as one keyword.  The term “keyword” is really a key phrase because people do not type only one word to find your business they type a combination of words creating one keyword.

The meta title tag is the name of the web page, this title is displayed in the browsers at the top left corner. Some browsers implement their own name after the title that your page has.

For Example:

Meta title tags are crawled by search engines and looked at by your visitors. They are located in the header part of your web page <title>My Title</title>. These title tags help search engines determine what your web page is about. Title tags are also used when someone adds you to his or her favorites or bookmarks. Remember that the keywords you choose should be in the title tag of the web page and in the content of that web page.

3. Having the keywords only in the title tag and nowhere else is bad.

 What should my SEO Title Tag Accomplish?

There are three basic questions you can ask yourself when you have your title finished.

1. Will this title really help robots, search engines understand what my product or service is?
2. Am I using these keywords, key phrases in the rest of the content?
3. Do my title tags make sense when people read them?

If the answer to these questions is “YES” then you have a great title.
