Will Titles make a diffrence

Discussion in 'Google' started by MyspaceQuality, Jul 18, 2007.

    Currently im getting about 100-150 people from google daily. However all the pages in my website have the same title. If I make each title spacific for the page will that help get more traffic?

    Also. Are IFrames bad for popular search engines. For example this page in my website. http://www.myspacequality.com/codes.html I use Iframes. If I take out the Iframes and make each code have its own page with its own title will that help?

    Thankssss guys

    Titles are essential and having the same title on every single page is definately a huge disadvantage, you'll end up in the supplemental index very quick, so make them unique.

    the supplemental index are pages that google things have the exact same content as a page it already has indexed, and as such it doesn't display it in normal search results.

    you definitely want to have a unique title for each page, and get rid of iframes where they aren't necessary to improve your rankings.

    Do not make so big titles. Keep it as unique as possible which will related with content of that pages.

    Remove your all iframe pages. Just make each page seperately which will be indexable by search engine.

    Absolutely! Use the Keyword Suggestion tool on Digital Point to come up with varied titles.

    Different titles do make a difference. I'm learning that right now.

    Yes, titles are very important. Don't keyword stuff your titles like the ones you've listed and make sure you have unique titles on every page.

    Iframes and Flash are both to be avoided if possible. And if you're using Wordpress blog software, make sure to enable permalinks.

    titles is the second most important on page element behind content.

    Titles should be unique and relevant to the page.

    Another thing to consider is to use keywords in the title to help build a theme up for a site.

    e.g your site is about cars - you would want to have car related words in the titles wherever possible.

    No, you won't.

    No, it isn't.

    Supplementals have nothing to do with duplicate content. Supps are due to a lack of PageRank.

    You still want titles to match the page content though, the more different pages you have with different content then the more chances you have of picking up different keywords and possibly getting traffic from them.

    So instead of

    Page 1:
    Pictures of Elisha Cuthbert - Myspace Layouts, Myspace Generators, Myspace Codes, Myspace Surveys, Myspace Graphics Quotes, Myspace Tutorials

    its better if its just

    Page 1:
    Quality Pictures of Elisha Cuthbert

    Thanks for all the advise. hopefully doing this will boost my traffic lol.

    You got it now...

    you should use the "Myspace Layouts, Myspace Generators, Myspace Codes, Myspace Surveys, Myspace Graphics Quotes, Myspace Tutorials" on your main page only.

    I'm not sure if anybody else has experimented with a keyword delimiter and if...

    Myspace Layouts, Myspace Generators, Myspace Codes, Myspace Surveys, Myspace Graphics Quotes, Myspace Tutorials

    is better than

    Myspace Layouts | Myspace Generators | Myspace Codes | Myspace Surveys | Myspace Graphics Quotes | Myspace Tutorials

    or

    Myspace Layouts - Myspace Generators - Myspace Codes - Myspace Surveys - Myspace Graphics Quotes - Myspace Tutorials

    I'm personally in the habit of using the pipe "|" instead of a comma or dash.

    Better than, as far as what? Ranking wise it should make no difference, and I think having merely a comma delimited list might result in fewer clickthroughs when used as a title.

    Either way, actually, I would think that was too much for a title, doesn't really portray (to me, anyways) a "For a Good Time, Click Me!" kind of message.

    Yes, it will definitely make a difference, Having diff. titles is very important. Make them of around 60-70 chars not longer than that.:)
