The <title> tag is the most important on-page SEO element.

Why this matters

No <title> tag means Google generates one automatically — usually badly — and SERP click-through plummets.

Learn more ▾

The title tag is the single most important on-page SEO element AND the SERP headline users see. Without one, Google guesses from H1 / og:title / page text, often producing awkward truncations. Add a 50-60 character <title> with the page's primary keyword first.
