    Too big, unless you're OK with seeing them trunctated with a ... in the search engine results pages.

    A great and catchy title of 6-9 words that include one or two most targeted keywords... It works great... needless to say, the title should look professional too.. not too catchy to be realistic..

    Up to 80 characters it is better. If you want to write there is no problem but your full title will not be displayed in the title bar of the browsers. So there will be the same if you write or not write long title.

    agreed, and dont use exclamation marks " ! " too much.. it can cause some blurry doubts to many spam-cautious people out there..

    The title tag must be related to your keywords for which you are going to do off page optimization. There is no limit but you should use three to four keywords or keyphrases.

    prefer upto 60 to 65 because the characters more than 65 will be truncated and showed as ..............if it is shown like this the visitors will not show much interest to visit that site
