Use Keywords In Page Titles

<h3 align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Use Keywords In Page Titles</b></span></h3><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><br /></div><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">It is recommended to use keywords in page titles itself. This title tag is different from a Meta tag, but it's worth considering it in relation to them. Whatever text one places in the title tag (between the <title> and </title> portions) will appear in the title bar of browsers when they view the web page. Some browsers also append whatever you put in the title tag by adding their own name, as for example Microsoft's Internet Explorer or OPERA.</span></span></div><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><br /></div><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">The actual text you use in the title tag is one of the most important factors in how a search engine may decide to rank your web page. In addition, all major web crawlers will use the text of your title tag as the text they use for the title of your page in your listings.</span></span></div><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><br /></div><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">If you have designed your website as a series of websites or linked pages and not just a single Home Page, you must bear in mind that </span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>each page</i></span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">of your website must be search engine optimized. The title of each page i.e. the keywords you use on that page and the phrases you use in the content will draw traffic to your site.</span></span></div><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><br /></div><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">The unique combination of these words and phrases and content will draw customers using different search engine terms and techniques, so be sure you capture all the keywords and phrases you need for each product, service or information page.</span></span></div><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><br /></div><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">The most common mistake made by small business owners when they first design their website is to place their business name or firm name in every title of every page. Actually most of your prospective customers do not bother to know the name of your firm until after they have looked at your site and decided it is worth book marking.</span></span></div><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><br /></div><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">So, while you want your business name in the title of the home page, it is probably a waste of valuable keywords and space to put it in the title line of every page on your site. Why not consider putting keywords in the title so that your page will display closer to the top of the search engine listing. </span></span></div><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><br /></div><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Dedicating first three positions for keywords in title avoiding the stop words like ‘and’, ‘at’ and the like is crucial in search engine optimization.</span></span></div>

There are a number of keyword research tools that can help you find them.</span></span></div><div align="JUSTIFY"><br /></div><div align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Apart from the Wordtracker which was already discussed in an other article, we have some more equally important research tools like the Overture, Google AdWords Keyword and Guidebeam. </span></span></div><div align="JUSTIFY"><br /></div><div align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Overture's </span></span><span style="color: blue;"><u><a href="http://inventory.overture.com/d/searchinventory/suggestion/"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">http://inventory.overture.com/d/searchinventory/suggestion/</span></span></a></u></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"> keyword suggestion tool is free and much quicker to use than Wordtracker. It works more like the Wordtracker but doesn't tell you how many websites are targeting each keyword phrase. For example if you type ‘Computer’, the Overture search suggestion tool will tell you that during the last month the word ‘Computer’ was searched, say for example 459550 times at Overture.Com. Similarly 'computer game' was searched 302210 times. Also, given one word it will tell you all relevant combinations of that word, which are based on actual searches done by people. If the word you keyed in is not a common search term then you will not get any results. It means that very few people have actually searched for that word during the last month.</span></span></div><div align="JUSTIFY"><br /></div><div align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Even Google Keyword Tool generates potential keywords for your ad campaign and reports their Google statistics, including search performance and seasonal trends.
