Do you know that
outbound links
are also one of the factors that affect a website's rank in the search engine results?
Once you have successfully chosen the keywords that you will be targeting for your website, the next important question is the place where you can put those keywords. The answer is simple: put them in the title tags of the web pages.
Unlike the internal links (which are still very important), title tags are not only visible in the page window but are also visible in the Search Engine Results Page (SERP). This makes title tags one of the best places for an anchor text (or "link name") to appear. Even if Google and other search engines do not consider title tags as "search engine ranking signals" (a very recent development), title tags can still give you a slight boost in your rank.
You should also pay attention to the words that you use in your title tag. To be honest, it is not only important to jot down the title tags of your web pages in your spreadsheet. It is also important to remember this title tag for each page you build. You should not use the same title tag for every page you build. If you do so, then each of your pages will have the same title tag, which will make it easier for the search engines to identify the pages. You should keep your title tags to the length of 65 to 70 characters (including spaces). Just to prove a point, the length of the title tag should be longer than this because Google will bold the title if it is too long.
In short, the title tag is one of the most important
on-page SEO
factors for your website. You should make it a point to keep your title tags as short as possible while making sure that they make sense to the visitors to your website.
You can use different title tags for each of your web pages. Your homepage's title tag, for example, should always be shorter (i.e. the keyword that the page is mainly focused on) because this is the title tag that the search engines use the most to figure out what the page is about. It is also important not to use too many different titles for a single page because it becomes too long and harder to read. And because you don't want to bore your visitors, you should always use a catchy title.
We've talked about keywords. These are also important. When you are choosing keywords for your site, it is important not to choose keywords that are too general. Both people and search engines look for keywords that are focused and precise. For example, a keyword like "glue" is too general. As it is, it describes a lot of different things. So, if you choose it as your keyword, it is more likely that your visitors will not want to look for the exact same things as you. So, you have to look for focused keywords that are more relevant to your website.
Every page on your website should have a unique title tag.
The title tags of each of your website's pages should be descriptive. They should answer the questions that your visitors should have right at their first impression: What is the aim of your website? Who are the people who will be interested in what you have to offer? When they come to your website, what do you have to offer them? What questions will they have to ask?
You should have a different title for every web page.
Yes, unique title tags for every page are important. In fact, you should use different title tags for almost all the web pages of your website. Do not use the same title tag for each web page of your website. Use a different title tag for each web page of your website because it differentiates your web pages and services from each other. And the number of your visitors will increase if you have a number of unique title tags.
If you use the same title tag for each web page of your website, then the search engines may detect the duplicate content and rank you very low, or maybe not at all. In other words, it is better to have a unique title tag for every single web page of your website.
Always remember to use H1 and H2 tag for your title tags.
