Joomla 1.5 and Title Tag PDF Print E-mail

Website NameI wanna talk about a tiny plugin for Joomla 1.5 called Website Name. This tiny addon is very useful for Joomla websites that doesn't use any SEO/SEF-URLs extensions like sh404SEF and ARTIO. It simply gives you the ability to add your website name in the page title.

According to Google SEO Starter Guide the title of your webpages should contain the name of your website/business and should include other bits of several information like the focus areas. When the user perform a search query, the title tag will appear the first line of the results. Words in the title are ebolded if they appear in the user's search query and this can help users recognize if the page is likely to be relevant to their search!

I believe this should be the default behaviour in Joomla, I mean it was in 1.0.x I don't know why it's dropped in 1.5! Download that extension and make your page title more accurate. After installing the plugin enable it and through the Global Configuration edit the website title.

Checkout Google SEO Starter Guide for some good practices about SEO. Its really simple and useful.

Have a nice day!
