Symbols in Title Tag?

    Hey I have a question...

    Currently I have symbols in my title tag, like delta, sigma, theta, phi etc...(ΦΔΘ etc). How does this effect my SEO because I'm pretty sure that google can't see those so would this hurt my ranking or pretty much do nothing different for it?? Will google ignore these and just go after the keywords??

    Thanks for the help! :)

    Thanks for the reply...but I also should add that these symbols will not be used for dividers...they will be used three in a row like this: ΦΔΘ and also in different combinations...

    Anyone know anymore specific info?


    Also would it be better for me to use like & pi &kappa & delta because search engines can read this? Thanks

    First of all, you didn;t tell in which context you're using these symbols in meta. Like, do you the site particularly related to this or something else. But anyway, writing delta, kappa and pr etc. is recommended rather than using symbols.

    I think there is no problem in using symbols. Spiders can still read your other keywords. Take a look at this site for more symbols to use as a word separator.
