Important Considerations:

• Site title always links to homepage
• Avoid using angle brackets in title text
• Keep title text even when using logo for SEO purposes

SEO Optimization:

• Different from displayed site title
• Useful for adding keywords
• Helps differentiate search results from site display

Using Logos:

• Can replace text title with logo image
• Maintains same position and homepage link functionality
• Retain text title in backend for alt text and SEO

Keep title displays current in search results by:
