• Use the maximum 70 characters that Google shows• Words at the front of the title have the most power• Use the search phrase at the beginning, and
combinations of the main search phrase(s) • If not too much competition, you can get high on Google
with just having the text on the page• Unique title on every page
![Page 19: Seo101wellness](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062616/5499de7bb47959b1628b478d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

phrase twice• Max 155 characters show on Google – note, no “ …”

there twice)• Or Google uses first 2-3 instances of the search phrase in
your text/after/sometimes including an h1• Or Google uses dmoz/odp description• Yahoo can use its directory title/description• Protect your SEO investment with the header tag <meta
name="robots" content="noodp,noydir" />• Unique on every page, or don’t have it at all!
