HTML - A Question About Using The <title> Tag
I heard that the <title> tag is the most important meta tag you use on your page, so I want to use it more fully than I currently am. At the present, I have a single title tag that I use in my header file that every page on my web site (link in my signature) uses.
My question is, would it be better to put a <title> tag on each page individually and get rid of the title tag in my header file? My site is new, and I'm pretty new to the specifics of web hosting (I'm a hobbyist webmaster) so any help would be appreciated . Similar TutorialsHey!

Thanks. hi, how can i add an image in title of the page (in title tag)? and in the adress bar? please help Hi guys, Internet Explorer 7 is displaying my home page as "index". In my HTML code it says <title>EBC Home Page</title>. In firefox it displays the proper page name but ie does not. I have never had this problem before and im sure ie supports <title> tags as it is a major component on html. Any Ideas on why it displays the filename and not the title name i have given it? Cheers, Raggy Hello, For some reason my title tag is still showing up as "Untitled Document" below is a snippet of the code that I currently have for my site. It reads correctly after I upload it to my FTP but it doesnt display correctly in the preview mode in dreamweaver cs5. I have never seen this happen and I'm not sure why it is doing this.

The title tag looks okay to me, so is there something else in the code that's causing it not to work on all machines?
