Does anyone have any opinions on whether to use a pipe | in your title tags? Or commas or just nothing at all?
-
I am trying to decided whether to use:
BootsJeansandLeathers.com Mens Jeans Mens Boots Mens Leathers Mens Footwear
OR
BootsJeansandLeathers.com | Mens Jeans | Mens Boots | Mens Leathers | Mens Footwear
as my title?

Brilliant - thanks for your help!

I agree with Anthony that yours does look like keyword stuffing.
To answer your question about to separate, it’s all up to you. I prefer to use the pipe | but others use commas or dashes, etc.

I think the way you are suggesting would appear to be keyword stuffing. Proper title should appear in more of a short statement, like the following:
Mens leather boots and footwear at bootsjeansandleathers.com
The above would appear to be a more natural flow of text in a statement form while still encapsulating your keywords. Try to target only one to two keyword phrases per web page. otherwise your diluting your page and losing its focus.

Homepage Title Tag - Key phrases spread too thin? Advice please
Hi there. Im newish to SEO and first time poster here (so apologies if I've posted in the incorrect place), and I'm hoping for some advice on my homepage title tag. Its is: "Asbestos Surveys & Removal, Kent & Sussex - MyBusinessName Asbestos Surveyors UK" Im hoping to target keyphrases "Asbestos Surveys Kent", "Asbestos Surveys Sussex", "Asbestos Removal Kent", "Asbestos Removal Sussex", "Asbestos Surveyors UK". My question is, have I attempted to jam too much in? By breaking the location bits away from "Asbestos Surveys", will it rank poorly for "Asbestos Surveys Kent"? Should I only target "Surveys" OR "Removal". Many thanks in advance.

Title tag terminology on website
Hi,
On-Page Optimization | | KasperGJ
I own a website (www.maleribasen.dk), which i'm currently making SEO on. The site actually ranks pretty good, top 1-2 on important searches. The title tag on the frontpage (and lots of other pages too) are "Maleribasen.dk - Buy and sell paintings" (translatated from danish - Maleri means painting). I'm thinking of changing the titles to "Buy and sell paintings | Maleribasen.dk" And then try to use the convention "| Maleribasen.dk" on every other title page. Sometimes use "Buy and sell paintings | Maleribasen.dk" as convention when title is too small. Like the overview of articles would be something like "Articles - Buy and sell paintings | Maleribasen.dk" A specific article would be "How to paint using oil painting | Maleribasen.dk" What do you guys think?0 -
How does Google treat Dynamic Titles?
Let's say my website can be accessed in only 3 states Colorado, Arizona and Ohio. I want to display different information to each visitor based on where they are located. For this I would also like the title to change based on their location. Not quite sure how Google we treat the title and rank the site.... Any resources you can provide would be helpful. Thanks
