SEO Tip 1 : Title and Heading Tag in WordPress

Search Engine Optimization Tip & Trick 1 :

Title TAg :

  1. Each and every WordPress page/post must have <title> tag.
  2. Title tag tells us what the page has to offer .
  3. Title Tag Length should be 80 characters or less for better search engine results.
  4. Make variation at the beginning in Title tag for different pages.

e.g.
Suppose we have written 2 posts then title tag for both should be in this manner

Post Name 1 | Blog Name
Post Name 2 | Blog Name

It should not be like -

Blog Name | Post Name 1
Blog Name | Post Name 2

because google and major search engine can fetch characters only upto 80 characters and they give weight age to keywords appearing at the start of title tag. If you have title structure written in second case then its warm warning to you , to change it as early as possible.

  1. Do not repeat same keyword more than twice. Search engine may penalize your page in search result.
  2. Make attractive eye catching and search engine friendly title tag.
  3. If you have created WordPress site which contain more posts then it may be difficult to update all title tags in one shots so this SEO Title Tag tool may be helpful.
