Lesson 7 / 32
Advanced Title Optimization
Craft titles that rank, convert, and tell your story.
Title length and truncation
Google displays 50-60 characters on desktop, 40-50 on mobile. Put the most important keywords first; anything after 60 chars risks being truncated.
Include modifiers for better CTR
Words like 'Best', '2025', 'Guide', 'Tutorial' increase click-through rates. Examples: 'Best Python Tutorials 2025', 'Complete Guide to React Hooks'.
Brand in title strategy
Include brand name for homepage/main pages ("JavaScript Guide | MyBlog"), but skip it for deep topic pages to save characters for keywords.
