Title Tag Best Practices

Character Length: Keep titles between 50-60 characters. Google typically displays the first 50-60 characters of a title tag.

Pixel Width: Google actually measures by pixel width (~600px), not characters. Wide letters (W, M) use more space than narrow ones (i, l).

Primary Keyword: Place your main keyword near the beginning for both SEO and visibility.

Brand Name: Include your brand, typically at the end separated by | or -

Primary Keyword - Secondary Keyword | Brand
Example: Running Shoes - Best Marathon Trainers 2026 | Nike
Number + Adjective + Keyword + Promise
Example: 10 Best Running Shoes for Marathon Training in 2026
How to + Action + Benefit
Example: How to Choose Running Shoes That Last | Expert Guide
Keyword + Year + Modifier
Example: Best Running Shoes 2026: Reviews & Buyer's Guide

Too long: Titles over 60 characters get cut off, losing important information.
Too short: Very short titles miss opportunities to include keywords and context.
Keyword stuffing: Repeating keywords looks spammy and can hurt rankings.
Missing brand: Not including your brand name reduces recognition and trust.
Duplicate titles: Every page should have a unique, descriptive title.
ALL CAPS: Using all caps looks aggressive and unprofessional.
