Use title of your posts as title of the page

You post a message, fine. It will be crawled by Google and be searchable, fine. But have you checked that the title of the page (that is, the title displayed on the title bar of the browser) reflects the title of your post? Because this is very important… let’s find out why:

  • search engines like Google use the title of the page to rank the page better: in other words, the words contained in the title of the page will have more weight than if they were only inside the page
  • when a user searches on Google and finds one of your posts, the title displayed would be more indicative. For instance, a user searches for "title your posts" on Google and finds this post. Would it be better that it is displayed: "MoneyBlogger" or "MoneyBlogger - Use title of your posts as title of the page"?

So, be sure to check if your blogging platforms allows to reflect the title of your posts in the title of the pages!
