Writing your page title 

Your page title tells your site visitors (and search engines) what your page is about. A search engine uses your page title to determine if your page best satisfies the user’s inquiry or search.  

This is important for search engine optimization (SEO). Defined SEO is the process of maximizing the number of visitors to your website by ensuring the site appears high on the list of results returned by a search engine.  

Suggested best practices for writing page titles: 

  • Use unique titles (avoid duplicates within your site). 
  • Make your title compelling, short and concise. 
  • Include a keyword that well defines the subject of your page.  
  • Include branding.  
     

Formulating your filename (page url) 

 Best practices: 

  • Keep your url structure simple and descriptive. 
  • Google recommends using dashes “-” and not underscores “_”. 
  • Don’t use spaces or special characters (such as &) to separate words.  
  • If you need an easy-to-remember url for advertising purposes, request a redirect from web strategy and development.
