Do you optimise page for 1 keyword or for relevant search?

    Imagine that you want to optimise for 1 keyword so it would get the highest possible ranking on google.

    Lets say that its phrase which consists of "word1 word2"

    And it shows that the most second most relevant phrase is "word1 word2 word3" and "word1 word2 word4"

    If I will try to use all these phrases in title it might look like keyword stuffing because all phrases has initial "word 1 word2"

    So whats the most optimal way to optimise for 1 keyword?

    "word1 word2" - "word1 word2 word3" - "Relavant keyword which doesn't have word1 word2"

    "word1 word2" - "relavant keyword which doesnt have word1 word2" - "relavant keyword which doesnt have word1 word2"

    I want to understand the principle how to create best title for specific targeted keyword.

    So if you can give any advice that would be a great help.

    Thank you

    <title>word1 word2 - word1 word2 word3 - word1 word2 word4</title> will NOT be interpretted as keyword stuffing. This is VERY common when optimizing title tags. It's totally acceptable to target 2 or 3 different keywords in your title if they are VERY similar (especially when each phrase is only different by a single word as in your example).

    You can use your keywords in title tag as long as it's not repeatedly used.

    I agree with Canonical here. If you put word3 alone in the title like word1 word2 - word3 - word4 then it will give lesser meaning. So you will have to put it as word1 word2 - word1 word2 word3 and so on...
