    Yes you can use
    form singaporetourpackage example given above

    your title can have
    domain name
    singaporetourpackage
    singapore tour package
    some more keywords and domainname
    domain name | keywords


    usually keyword you want to target should be in the title tag.

    for every page you can target different keyword.

    No, You should go with relevant keywords which describe your site or company most instead of domain name.

    You can use anything you want in the title. Its your site after all. :)

    Jokes apart, adding domain name in title does not add any value. from SEO perspective, the title fields should be limited to max 70 chars. If you add title, you are wasting the chars. Add meaningful keywords instead

    If your website have keywords rich domain like cheapairticketsindia.com then you can use this at title tags but if you have any other name which does't relate to your business name, it should be necessary that you have to use appropriate keywords in title tags.

    No I think so that you can't use the domain name in the title tag.

    Of course you can do it, but it does not provide any added value. I suggest adding a title with your main keywords instead.

    It will only give you better search engine results if your domain name includes the title of your main keywords.

    There sure as hell is nothing wrong with it. :) People just don't use it much because they prefer placing keywords in TITLE tags rather than the domain name.

    It is better that you don't use it, unless for branding purposes. There are a lot of misinformed people in this thread.

    What is your domain name? Let us know that first, then I can say something relevant.

    Aboslutely right. Google already pefers the domain itself, hence using it in TITLE is not much mandatory.

    That's a bit of a silly question, the domain name is irrelevant.

    I don't think it is irrelevant.

    Assume his domain is icandothis.com And he wants to put I CAN DO THIS in his TITLE. What benefit it will give him?

    Now assume his domain is domaincoupons.com and Puting Domain Coupon in TITLE will be benefical.
