I'm new here and trying to be better informed on how to improve my google ranking/seo. Hope my question below makes sense.

I'm trying to improve google rankings and seo for my website and trying to tweak and improve some things. I have a home accessories website and behind each product (in the Admin section) is a field for Product Name, Page Name, Page Title, Alt Tags and Page Description. I'm in the process of optimising this because I think that each of these fields are not filled properly with the correct keywords and currently I have exactly the same product description in each field which I don't think is correct. So to get back to my question if you had to rate Product Name, Page Name, Page Title, Alt Tags and Page Description in order of importance for good seo and google ranking which would it be?

Also, for example, within a Product/Page Name, Page Title is it best to leave spaces between words or a dash or are there are any guidelines for this?

    1-Title
    2-Url of the page
    3-H1 tags (you don't name it)
    4-Alt tags
    5-Product name and product description: Just place keyword on them. You can use H1 to format the product name
    6-Page description

      >>Product Name, Page Name, Page Title, Alt Tags and Page Description in order of importance for good seo and google ranking which would it be?

      Definitely the title comes first, then I would say product name, Page description is important as you want the user to click your listing in the SERPs instead of your competitors, and lastly alt tags which doesn't count and if they would it would be bare minimum...Its good though to use the alt for Google Images...Google Universal does show images for certain keywords so the alt tags here seems to place a fairly decent importance I have noticed...

      >>Also, for example, within a Product/Page Name, Page Title is it best to leave spaces between words or a dash or are there are any guidelines for this?

      According to the latest of Matt Cutts (Google Enginee), using hyphens do separate the words is what you should be using instead of underscore (when naming the URL).Hyphens do currently separate the words vs. the underscore currently does not....

      For the title of the page, I have not heard anything that this would matter (if all)...I try to stay very current with the latest so hopefully the above has helped you out...

      Good Luck Wechito!
