Info::
Title uses 2 different separator characters: :, -
The page title `Broadband Deals: Compare in May 2026 - Uswitch` uses multiple separator characters (:, -). Consistent separator use is a soft signal of careful editorial control; mixed separators usually mean the title was assembled from multiple template fragments (CMS title + brand + section) without a normalization step. Pick one separator (commonly `|`, `-`, or `:`) and stick with it across the whole site.
Got: 2 separators: : -
Info::
Title contains year "2026" -- consider whether it's still current
The page title contains the year `2026`. Year-in-title is a common SEO tactic for "best of YEAR" / "top X in YEAR" content -- the title looks fresh in search results when the year is current, but signals stale content when the year is past. Verify the page is being maintained year-over-year (and the year is updated in titles + content + headings + structured data) or remove the year from the title.
Got: 2026
