    I think your title is OK. Have you already check the daily estimated traffic of your keywords Sports Draft?

    What keyword are you targeting?
    If it's "sports draft," then you're good to go.

    I agree with below, but think you need to cram more keywords into your Title, not more than 80 characters but you still have some space to cram

    The title on your forum still has 'sports draft' at the start, you'll need to remove it.

    I would choose
    (Sports Draft - The Hottest sports forum)

    Deleting that phrase "on the web" would make your title stronger.

    the limit of number of character in title tag is olny 60 characters only and keywords you have chosen are not that too competitive!

    66 characters, not 60.

    Yahoo accepts them up to 120 characters but all important keywords and text should be in the first 66 chars.

    Change it to The Hottest Sports Forums on the Web! Sports Draft. You can use a hyphen or pipe to separate Sports Draft from the rest but it isn't really needed with your title.

    I offered a suggestion that has brought me good success doing SEO on my sites and sites of our clients at SEO.com. Even with your title like that you will need to get plenty of inbound links with your targeted search terms in the anchor text of the links. :cool:

    "The Hottest Sports Forums on the Web!| Sports Draft."

    Isn't better than:

    "Sports forum | The hottest sports forum on the web! | Sports draft"

    Contains the main keyphrase twice and has the keyphrase at the start of the title which are two factors relating to the relevency of the title. Plus it's under the 66 character limit which is perfect.

    Could you justify how it's better than the one I suggested?
