Ok, I have one quick question when dealing with a paginated record set. How would you handle say you are selling Christmas Widgets and you have 8 pages of the widgets. Would the best title be “Christmas Widgets” for each of the pages or as I have done currently “Christmas Widgets (page 1 or 8)”. My past experience with Google and Bing was that pages 2-8 were not getting indexed because of identical titles on each of the pages. As soon as I added the pagination everything started showing up.

Thanks, John

I just want to suggest you one more point, if we target 3 – 4 keywords for 1 webpage then title element should be according to that.
e.g.:- I’m targeting 3 keywords cars, best cars, woman cars
Then consider above situation while preparing title element for your webpage.
keyword prominence is also important factor while writing title element for the web page.
Thank you for post.

Reposting because my tags don’t appear.

If you want to be very precise the tag is that thing with angled brackets, e.g. . The element includes both tags (unless it is self-closing) and the content, if any, within the tags.</p> <p>Title tag: <title><br /> Title element: <title>This is a title element

Good to see the commenters above read the post above, NOT!!

They still called it the title tag and not the title element as it should be called.

Also the title element isn’t a meta tag at all.

It shows how poorly trained/educated the vast majority of SEO consultants are!

Yes you are right. choosing a right title tag can have a good effect on SE rankings. It should be matched with your content of the webpage and its a good idea to use an unique title for every webpage of your site.

Amongst the three major Meta tags (Meta Title Tag, Meta Keywords Tag, Meta Description Tag) the Title Tag is one which is given the most weight by search engines’ algorithms. In fact, this tag should be written so that it should give the idea about your site instantly. A perfect written Title tag can generate quick and appreciable traffic to your site. The text written in this tag appears as clickable text in the search engine result page (SERP) and if it is really meaningful and conveys most about the web page, more clickthroughs will be the result.
