Five Short Quick Tips on Web Page Titles


By Catherine Franz

Search engine spiders read and record page titles first.Here are five tips on how you can get the search enginespiders to read your titles and use them in theiroptimization process:

1. Character count is important: Google's maximum charactercount for page titles is 83. Yahoo's maximum charactercount is 111.

2. Don't use filler words like: and, for, the. They aredropped anyway by the search engines.

3. Remove redundant or unsearch worthy words or phrases, forinstance: Welcome to, this is about, or Products Page.Anything people would not normally search on. This alsouses up the limitations on character count (mentioned in #1above).

4. Include word plurals, for instance: sales lead and salesleads.

5. Include various spellings or misspellings of the words,for example, saleslead and sales lead, could be used as oneword or someone might search on them as two separate words.
