<head>
<title>
tagDid you ever see pages "titled" No Title in the search results of a search engine?
I bet you did.
To prevent this from happening to your own page, always specify the
title of every page between the <title>
tags in the <head>
Do not mix up this title and the one in the <body>
, usually placed between <h1>
or <h2>
tags.
They have completely different purposes, as their locations indicate.
The <title>
in the <head>
is shown both in your browser's title bar and in search engines indexes.
The title(s) in the <body>
are shown in the browser's HTML viewer window only.
It does make sense, though, to use the same text for the titles in the <head>
(<title>
) and in the <body>
(<h1>
).
This may have a positive impact on your Google ranking (or may not, no guarantees, but it certainly doesn't hurt).
