HTML <title> Tag
The <title>
tag tells the browser what the title of the document is. The title has to be just plain text, and it appears in the title bar of the browser or in the tab for the page.
The <title>
tag is necessary in HTML documents.
The title of a webpage is crucial for SEO (Search Engine Optimization). Search engines use the page title to determine the ranking of pages in search results.
"The <title>
element:"
- Specifies the title that appears in the browser toolbar.
- Gives a title to the page when you add it to your favorites.
- Shows the page title in search engine results.
Here are a few suggestions for making effective titles:
- Choose a more detailed title instead of using a short one or just a couple of words.
- Search engines show around 50-60 characters of the title. Keep your titles within this limit to ensure they are fully displayed.
- Avoid using a mere list of words as the title because it might lower the page's ranking in search results.
Make sure the title is both accurate and meaningful!
Note: In an HTML document, it's not allowed to include more than one <title>
element.
