    1. Write short Titles<\/h2>\n

    Google has a maximum title length of 64-70 characters<\/strong>. Do not make the title longer, because Google cuts down its display in the search results. Use the Web SEO Analysis Tool<\/a> to check your title\u2019s length.<\/p>\n

    2. Identify your Keywords<\/h2>\n

    Indentify the keyphrases<\/strong> of your web page\u2019s content. List down all possible words describing the content of your page. Step in the shoes of the user and list all the relevant search terms<\/strong> that he\/she may formulate. The words used in your title will be displayed in search engine results as a clickable link. Therefore it should contain your page\u2019s main keywords. You can use the Web SEO Analysis Tool<\/a> to find how relevant your Title is with the rest of your page.<\/p>\n

    3. The important goes first<\/h2>\n

    Start your title by adding the important keywords<\/strong> that you found during research. The words appearing first are considered to be more important.<\/p>\n

    4. Use targeted keywords<\/h2>\n

    Choose specific keywords for your title in order to have more targeted <\/strong>traffic.<\/p>\n

    5. Be descriptive<\/h2>\n

    Make sure that your title summarizes<\/strong> the content of your web page. In this way users will know what the topic of your page is, when it appears in the search results. This will help you decrease the bounce rate<\/strong> and increase the click through rate<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    6. Create unique titles<\/h2>\n

    Make sure you use unique titles for each web page. Duplicate titles might lead to duplicate content<\/strong> issues.<\/p>\n

    7. Avoid Keyword Stuffing<\/h2>\n

    Keyword stuffing or any other spam technique should be avoided. Even if you manage to rank first, an \u201cover optimized\u201d title will reduce your click through rate<\/strong>.
