HTML Title Tag for a Website - Meta Tags - Search Engine Optimization - www.SEO.cc

You see that title in the Upper Left hand corner of your browser? That's what we are about to write.This is the identifier to the browser of your site and also, the tag the search engine will put as the title to your page listing. The only instance where this doesn't happen is in Yahoo! where they adapt the heading from your directory submission if you place one ($299 per year). If this is the case, this is the title Yahoo! will give your website on their search engine.The following tag should be placed in the following HTML:

Blogger won't allow me to put <> and without HTML errors coming up, so if you have any questions as to these feel free to contact me.

head
title title

The number of characters (letters) you use are of great value when writing your title tag. You want to be as brief and concise as possible and not waste any characters on unnecessary words or phrases. Even when it comes down to using the word "and" try to use the symbol "&" this for example saves 2 character spaces.

As of August 7, 2006 the count we found for characters on the following search engines titles were as follows:
Google: 64 characters
Yahoo: 115 characters
MSN: 64 characters
Try to keep your important title information within these number of characters.Now, How do you come up with your Title?Well it is time to brainstorm...think...think...think...write down...scratch out...write down some more...uh huh, you got it?...Good!!!!
