Are the keyword in the title matters?

    When creating the titles for your articles, does it matter where the keyword is in the title? I think I read somewhere that it's better to put the keyword right at the beginning and all the extra words after it. Is that true?

    Yes. For SEO purposes on your blog you want to include your targeted keyword in the title, URL, first and last line of the copy, article tags, Headings, and sprinkled throughout the body of your blog post.
    Some may disagree with my, but for articles submitted to article directories, it's most important to put it in the anchor text leading back to your money site. Don't use your targeted keyword in your articles. Use a variation. You don't want your articles to compete with your main money sites for SERP positions.

    That's the most important part there. All you have to do is to fill all the necessary keyword/s in your title.

    What you said is true, but that is for the Title tag that you put in the <head> section of your website. In that case, yes you would put your main keywords in the title tag and place your main keywords at the beginning because order does have weight.

    However, when writing an article, I would recommend putting the title for something that people would most likely search for on Google so that your article is easily found by users. For example if you are writing about the "Title Tag", then I would recommend putting a title such as "How to optimize your title tag" because a user will most likely write that in Google to get information. When he does, your article will most likely show up as SERPs.

    The keywords should always be in the main part of the title, the first line, in the middle and the at the end of your article.

    Example Keywords : Dog Training

    Article Title : Learn The Best Dog Training Techniques

    First Line : If you're looking for information on how to learn the best dog training techniques

    Middle body : We will show you various ways of dog training

    Conclusion : I hope you found our article on dog training useful. If your require any additional information regarding this subject then you can visit the scottman website.

    Mark :)

    Imagine what the page would look like in Google's results and where the word would be on the listing that you see. That might give you a better idea of where you want the keyword to be placed.

    Good luck!
