of most browsers. Search Engines look at titles!
Google displays about 66 Title Element characters in Search Results. Limit your Title Element to about that length.
Minimize "empty" words seldom used in Search Strings: About Us, Contact, etc. If you want a pizza, you don't search "contact information!"
Page titles should reflect probable search terms.
Title Tags Are Headlines - Short Phrases, Terse. Avoid Conjunctions & "Non-Keyword" Terms.
Think newspaper front pages circa 1900: Multiple Headlines, Every Word Meaningful, Few Prepositions.
Don't repeat the company name and/or a generic title on every page. Every web page pixel should contribute to communication to humans and bots.
