Meta Title : How much importent for SEO?

    To make a perfect on page optimization meta title plays a major key role.Some time we get confused how to implement meta title for our web pages and how much beneficial it is for search engine visibility.Perfect meta title creation is a good SEO practice.

    Now come to the point what is meta title?Meta title which describe the page definition which we use to see top of the internet browsers.Like:
    [​IMG]
    Now we have to know that what is the specification and guidelines to create the a meta title.

    * Meta title should not cross 100 characters
    * Meta title used for 8 to 9 key phrases(depends on size of key phrases,spaces are countable)
    * Ignore same title repeating,you can use plurals(but suggested specified keyword rich inner pages)

    How its effect on search engines?Most of the major search engine follow meta title and emphasize to fix the ranks and determine the page value.If your targeted key phrase is “online schools”, you can put it on meta title portion for specified landing pages, to get the best results…How we see the meta title on the search engines?
    [​IMG]
    So the fact is while we create any website, search engine friendly we should make a proper meta title to get the best SERP with corresponding search terms.

    Meta title should be a 65 characters long! i think now a 100 characters. if you are doing 100 characters long title then you have to put your targeted keywords at beginning of title till 60-65 characters.

    thanks!

    I think every characters on the title segment treated as same in terms of emphasizing the rank by Search engine robots, do you have any specific instruction or real time experience that meta title getting less preference while we add it after 60 characters.. ?

    Your title should be unique, clear and concise and proper placement of keywords used in a title tag.

    General rule of thumb for Google is to keep the titles to between 60-90 characters. As far as the description, It's a judgment call that arises from keyword goals, available content resources, and the type of product sold. Likewise, there are times where
    it's leaned on heavily to help promote a wide array of phrases, and others there may be a more focused, terse approach. 250 characters, plus or minus a fair margin.

    Title tags and proper H1 tags and meta description certainly do help but if you do the guided job for on page and do a solid job of building back links that are of high quality you can get any web page to the front page.

    i don't want to clear any body because all are looking from good experience in SEO but crawler read up to 65 character with space then we should just act wisely to place our main services keywords on title tag if you have more services you want to rank well then create more pages

    It is very important and if properly keyworded or key phrased can help a bunch. If not properly titled than it can be of little or no value to you. So think before you post.

    From my experience in working with many b2b companies in Silicon Valley. I know for a fact that 40% of weight comes from Title and URL, hands down. Again, i talking about websites with 16 years of domain age and thousands of indexed pages but still, Title and URL are by far the #1 ranking factors.
