Role of Meta Title Tag in Search Engine Optimization
Do you want to secure a top ranking in search engine 
result pages(SERP)?
I think every one is going to answer - Yes. And a very 
common belief is that add lot of most searched 
keywords in the meta tags of your web pages and see 
your site skyrocketing. But it feels highly frustrating 
when this magic proves of no avail. Remember, meta 
tags alone don't do a magic in getting better placed in 
the search pages. These meta tags sure help you to 
describe your web pages to a search engine and gain a 
better place in its results. But at the same time they help 
search engine too to prevent indexing of improper web 
pages. Which may have good weight keywords in their 
meta tags but having no relationship with the contents 
of the page.
Meta tags are the blocks which contain information 
about the contents of your web page and they exist into 
the head area of your web page. They are basically 
meant to communicate with the search engine. Most of 
the Meta tags are visible to the search engine only and 
not the visitor on your web page. But, Title tag is one 
which is visible to the search engine and the visitor as 
well. Most importantly, it attracts the search engine and 
the visitor very aggressively. Most search engines 
consider this tag as the primary information about the 
site and also an human visitor sees this information as 
the first thing on top left corner of the browser. 
Moreover, when one bookmarks the site, the text
in this tag appears in the bookmarks list.
In this article, I have tried to focus mainly on 'Title Meta 
Tag' that how a good Title Meta Tag can render a great 
help in optimization of a website.
What is the significance of Meta Title Tag
Amongst the three major Meta tags (Meta Title Tag, 
Meta Keywords Tag, Meta Description Tag) the Title Tag 
is one which is given the most weight by search engines' 
algorithms. In fact, this tag should be written so that it 
should give the idea about your site instantly. A perfect 
written Title tag can generate quick and appreciable 
traffic to your site. The text written in this tag appears as 
clickable text in the search engine result page (SERP) and 
if it is really meaningful and conveys most about the 
web page, more clickthroughs will be the result.
This small example explains the function of Meta Title 
tag better. Suppose I need to visit San Francisco and 
need a road map of the city and go to a book store to 
find the same. There are lot of books on tourism and 
travel with different titles but my attention will go to a 
title which says something like ""Latest Road Map of San 
Francisco"" rather than a title ""All about San 
Francisco"". May be the second book contains better 
information about the subject I am looking for. But the 
title of first one speaks exactly about what I need. This 
how a better title gains priority over the other because 
of the contents of its title. This is exactly what happens 
with search engine. It picks the most
matching title with the query and places in its result 
page as clickable text.
Should the Company name appear in Title Tag
Well, I would say sure if your company is really a big 
entity like IBM, Microsoft or Cisco or some well know 
brand like Sony, Phillips etc. Because people may want 
to search for those companies or brands with their 
names. But in normal cases it should not be so.
Suppose, your company is ""Larry Tours and Travels"" in 
San Francisco. Instead of writing ""Welcome to the 
home of Larry Tours and Travels"" in the title tag it 
would be better to write something like ""tour 
operators, travel agents, car rental,bay area tours, san 
francisco tours - Larry Tours and Travel"". Do a good 
research to find best keywords and phrases which 
describe your site best. My suggestion is that the length 
of the title tag should be between 15 to 20 words 
making it attractive enough that it looks interesting to 
the person searching for your business and he clicks 
through.
Few tips for writing good Title tags.
Try including the content relevant keywords in the title 
tag. This would help placing your site better in search 
engine result page (SERP) when someone searches those 
keywords.
Also do not use repeating keywords and phrases in your 
title tag because this may be treated as spamming by 
search engines and they may affect your ranking.
Either don't include your company name in the title tag 
or add it after few most relevant keywords, phrases into 
the title tag.
Write different title tags for each web page of your 
website instead of writing a common title page for the 
complete site. Make sure that each title tag has 
relevance with the contents of that web page where it 
appears.
Try to keep the length of your title tag small (between 
15 to 20 words). Some search engines allow small title 
tags only and truncate the extra part of the longer ones 
which at times may render your title tag completely 
meaningless.
I would say that write very meaningful, impressive title 
tag they are a really powerful can be best tool to 
optimize your site. The title tag has most dominant role 
while the search engines make their decision about the 
theme of the website. When a search for keywords is 
conducted, the Title tag is given heavy consideration by 
most search engine algorithms. As I said earlier, since 
each page in your website is unique so it needs a 
different Title tag.
So, Writing relevant and meaningful title tag is 
something which may achieve high rankings in search 
engine result pages (SERP) and result high clickthroughs 
to your site. The Meta Keywords Tag and Meta 
Description Tag also need to be taken care of and 
optimized equally in addition to that of Meta Title Tag to 
secure a place at the top of the search engines and in 
convincing a search engine that your site's contents are 
more relevant than that of your competitor's.
