Questions about putting 2-3 keywords in title tag.

Hi there,
what is the best way to decide the keywords to be used in title tag?
-
Para nosotros no hay duda: cada título debe ser único y potenciar una única palabra clave. Sin embargo, la originalidad del SEO que optimiza el contenido se encuentra en la capacidad de incluir términos relacionados que compongan diferentes palabras claves que permitan abarcar lo que denominamos la "concordancia amplia" de términos.
Por ejemplo, nosotros establecemos en las fichas de productos "Palabra Clave + Precio (en euros) + [Precio 2023]. Esto nos permite abarcar palabras claves como esta:
Whill Model C2
Optimizar la ficha de esta forma nos permite abarcar las siguientes palabras claves:- Silla Whill Model C2
- Silla Whill Model C2 precio
- Precio 2023 whill model c2
- Mejor precio whill model c2 2023
Interesante debate, espero que te aporten mi planteamiento.

The short answer is: simply use the keywords with the highest volume. But there can be many pitfalls and details which can affect the CTR on the SERP. I love this guide where they tell about them with examples: https://rush-analytics.com/blog/title-of-a-website-optimize-like-a-pro

Identify main topics: Let's say your page is about yoga. Your main topics could be "yoga for beginners" and "yoga poses."
Use keyword research: Using a tool like Google Keyword Planner, you might find that "yoga for flexibility" and "yoga for stress relief" are popular related keywords.
Choose relevant and specific keywords: For a title tag, you might choose "Yoga for Beginners: Poses for Flexibility and Stress Relief" to accurately describe your content.
Keep your title tag short: The example title tag is 58 characters, which is within the recommended 60-character limit.
Avoid keyword stuffing: Don't try to cram too many keywords into your title tag. Instead, use them in a way that accurately describes your content and helps potential visitors find your page.

Optimizing your title tags is one of the easiest ways to help improve your rankings on Google. They signal to Google what your page is about. Keep titles around 60 characters.
Avoid typing your title in all caps. Uppercase letters take up extra space and could cause your title to get cut off.
Remove your brand name unless it’s necessary
Use symbols to save space (i.e., “&” instead of “and”)Stuffing lots of keywords into a single page title can hurt that page's rankings. And it can also confuse users, making them less likely to click through to your page.
Keep the title tag readable and simple. There are some websites showing title tag score and seo score . You may use those services. Some are free too.
Hope this helps,
Thanks, Yoglica -
The title tag is an important part of SEO, and including 2-3 keywords in the title tag can help your website rank higher in search engine results. It is important to make sure that the keywords you choose are relevant to the content of the page, and that they are used in a natural way that makes sense to readers. Additionally, it is important to keep the title tag concise and to the point, as search engines may truncate titles that are too long.

@lucybish said in Questions about putting 2-3 keywords in title tag.:
what is the best way to decide the keywords to be used in title tag?
When deciding on keywords to use in the title tag, it's important to consider the relevance and search volume of the keywords. The title tag is one of the most important on-page SEO factors, as it tells search engines and users what the page is about. Therefore, it's important to include keywords that accurately and effectively describe the content of the page. Additionally, it's also a good idea to consider the competition for the keywords and target long-tail keywords that are less competitive. Finally, it's important to make sure that the title tag is compelling and will entice users to click on the link.

What is the importance of exact match keywords for local SEO in service industry businesses?
I am working with a local service contractor. Several of his competitors have domain names with exact match keywords. Audits of competitor sites and use of other research tools reveals that their sites are behind in content and technical SEO. The competitor sites consistently rank higher in organic search results. I am new to SEO and I understand that some of my lack of clarity here is a result of not understanding the value of key word use in local SEO vs. wider efforts.

Relevant but not-relevant keywords impact to SEO
Hello, I would like to know if the selection of individual keywords(that are not primary, secondary or tertiary) are important for SEO regardless of the relevancy to the page topic. I am wondering how much of a contribution a non-P1/P2/P3 can make in terms of SEO? For example it is a product page and I have built my content with P1,P2&P3 based only on the product and its properties itself. Do you think that a content gap for the page could be the production process of that product? So even if it is a product and its properties page, I can add 2 sentences about the production, so that I can drive more traffic by including these 2 informative sentences.? EXAMPLE:
Keyword Research | | Siir
So lets' say my topic is "hair types" (P1) and my subtopics are "Straight," "wavy," and "curly"(P2s) which I used as subtitles. But throughout the page, I am planning to add some relevant but not-directly-relevant keywords here and there since they have high metrics and volumes. For example a potential sentence I can add: "innovative hair products these days can offer amazing results for the desired hair types". It is not specifically about "hair types" but I am using the keyword "innovative hair products" (good metrics keyword) which may help for the traffic... Another potential not-so-direct sentence can be: "For all hair types, the hair damages are common: heat damage, chemical damage and mechanical damage". Would adding this extra sentence where I am not specifically talking about "hair types" (my topic) but "hair damages" and damage examples (off-topic high metric keywords) help me to drive traffic to my website? And how much of an impact would it be?0 -
Improving SEO for an e-commerce page with 1 product page
I'm trying to improve the SEO for an e-commerce store that I'm working for that sells custom car air fresheners where you select the shape of the item and then upload the photo. The site has been around for almost 10 years so has authority in the field and ranks number one for custom car air fresheners and other related high-traffic keywords. However, there is no blog, no social media and has 8 total pages: landing page, FAQ, contact, guidelines, shape/product (page that starts the ordering process with little text), scents, terms, and samples.

I'm struggling with how we rank higher for specific keywords that we are not number 1 with ok traffic (such as dog air freshener, custom air freshener for car with picture, custom photo car air freshener) and not affect the current keywords that we are ranking number one for. In addition, how do we rank higher for other keywords, if we don't have that many pages like a blog to create content? I was thinking of creating a blog to target more keywords, but I don't think there is enough relevant content to make. And I feel Google would find a blog about "top gifts for dad" or "top gifts for the holidays" not relevant. I was also thinking of adding more text to the shapes/product page which could be tailored towards a keyword. Maybe I could create another product page that goes into more detail about the air freshener with images, descriptions, and other use cases. On MOZ, the Domain Authority is 18 (really low), so I am thinking about working on getting backlinks from relevant sources with authority to improve our SEO. Or do we not mess with the text on the website since it works and not worry about the other keywords and focus on technical SEO items and backlinks to help with SEO? TLDR: How do you improve SEO for new keywords for an e-commerce business that doesn't have a lot of pages for content without affecting its number 1 ranking on other keywords?0 -
Unsolved Keyword Volume Filtered By City Location?
Let's say I look up the keyword "plumber" in the Keyword Research tool. I get a monthly volume of 70.8k-118k. Now, I want to know how much of that volume comes from a specific city in the United States, like Kalamazoo, Michigan. Is there a way to identify this? My alternative is to look up the keyword "Kalamazoo plumber". This has two problems: People who search for local services will frequently leave off the location, with the expectation that the search engine will provide localized organic results. So, the search volume isn't very precise. That keyword has N/A volume, so the information doesn't help me anyway. Any alternative way to get at this data? Thanks!

Are non-breaking spaces ( ) in keyword phrases bad for ranking
Hello all, I came across a tip for avoiding text orphans in responsive design by putting a non-breaking space between the last two words. While this works nicely, I was wondering if I did this inside of a keyword phrase, would it still rank equally as well? Or will it be viewed as separate phrases or terms? Thanks, Roman

Should i not use hyphens in web page titles? Google Penalty for hyphens?
all the page titles in my site have hyphens between the words like this: http://texas.com/texas-plumbers.html I have seen tests where hyphenated domain names ranked lower than non hyphenated domain names. Does this mean my pages are being penalized for hyphens or is this only in the domain that it is penalized? If I create new pages should I not use hyphens in the page titles when there are two or more words in the title? If I changed all my page titles to eliminate the hyphens, I would lose all my rankings correct? My site is 12 years old and if I changed all these titles I'm guessing that each page would be thrown in the google sandbox for several months, is this true? Thanks mozzers!

Does it do harm if you add a rel="canonical" tag on a page that doesn't need it?
If a page is clearly unique and there is obviously no canonical tag needed, does it hurt anything if one has been added?

Where is the best place to put reciprocal links on our website?
Where should reciprocal links be placed on our website? Should we create a "Resources" page? Should the page be "hidden" from the public? I know there is a right answer out there! Thank you for your help! Jay
