HTML Title Tag
The title tag defines the title of the page and serves the following purposes:
defines a title in the browser toolbar
provides a title for the page when it is added to favorites
displays a title for the page in search-engine results
used by search engines to identify how to index your site based on title keywords and your site's contents
ex: Important Keywords | About Us | Company Name
Think of title tags like the title of the chapter of a book. It tells people and search engines what your site is about. With that in mind, it should be understandable by humans but written for a search engine by including important keywords for your site.
