How to Write SEO Titles

An SEO title should make the page topic obvious in a few words. It is often the first thing a searcher sees, so it needs to be clear, honest and closely matched to the page content.

Good titles usually put the main topic near the beginning and explain the type of page, such as guide, checker, generator or examples. Use those words only when the page actually offers that value.

Title formulas

• Main keyword + Free Online Tool.
• How to + task + simple guide.
• Best + topic + tips for beginners.
• Topic + examples and checklist.

Quick checklist

Before publishing, preview the title with the meta description. If the title promises one thing and the page delivers something else, rewrite it.
