For anyone who understands even the basics of SEO, then you won't be surprised to hear that page titles are the number 1 thing to get right for your website if you want any chance of being found for your relevant keyword/phrase.
But there's a lot of people that still don't understand this, and there are plenty of wysiwyg or template based websites with terrbile page titles such as "home" "products" etc.
So Google in its bid to create the perfect utopian seach results has decided that if it thinks your page titles are rubbish, it will create it's own....
Hmm, I can't say I like this strategy, and I don't know how you can write a one hat fits all algorithm, especially for larger complex sites, but we shall see what happens.
Googles now updated it's page title and description help file, so if you need a refresher, here it is:

Hmphh....are you actually saying that nobody types in Google search bar "welcome to indizine's homepage" as a keyword? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() indizine indizine
“Hmphh....are you actually saying that nobody types in Google search bar "welcome to indizine's homepage" as a keyword? ![]() lol, but you never know, with a bit of Google magic, they may start showing your page title as indizine - web design up north ![]()
description is also very important. I've seen many sites with one word titles and blank description... those site's owners must not know or care about search engine traffic BoBo_184

There might be one good thing about this, if they decide to rewrite your page title for you on a search, they might also tackle the ones that stuff their title page with keywords as well. (If not, that would be a cool thing to see). Thanks, Dreamraven
My page titles are too similar, and the targeted keywords for each page are a bit repetitive. I would like to change things about, but seeing as I recently tinkered with titles and keywords, should I let things settle down and allow a bit of time to pass (in a SEO sense) beforehand? Harry Robins |
