best approach to title of a page

    when you make the title of page is it better to just put the keyword in it you are targeting or add some filler afterwards ?

    for example

    golf ebook


    or


    golf ebook - golfguide.com the best golf guides and techniques


    i am guess the first one is better since it is more focused and shows that is the main content of the page

    you want meaning full words to cover main search and other variations...

    something like that

    note golf and golfing

    variation is key

    When you make title for a page add the keywords you want to rank for:

    EXAMPLE:

    1. Golf Ebook Golf Exercise Book Golfing Ebook (this should be a normal length and not make it longer as my example)


    Make sure every word starts with a capital letter and avoid: - = + and, in, you, me, etc in the title tag.

    make it dead simple if it is about golf make it say GOLF dont try to confuse things
    a ood thing to help is that when you go to google think about what you would type if you were looking fr your produce/service?
    cheers nick

    I would keep the title short, and then in the description you can add some details, like the ones you added.
    People don't tend to remember too many details from the headline, it is simply to get their attention, don't bor them with the small stuff.

    Using domain name in title of page is not good approach.

    No dear, target only keywords. After you get some more space, you can keep your next part as domain. Remember you have not much space in title field

    use your targeted keywords in title below 60 characters, After 60 character you can use any subject or your domain name
    Most of the search engine crawl 60 characters in title, so dont waste the space with unwanted words like in,the,and..

    use main keyword for title tag,and use appropriate title tag for each web page. Your title should be unique.
