Hi there,

Is there anything wrong with doing title tags like this:

Tapestries | Wall Hangings | Wall decor

Or, should they be like this:

Tapestries, wall hangings, wall decor

Only the thing is I have been told that the search engines stop at certain keys and I would hate to do all my work only to find it is wrong.

Thanks in advance for your help

    A good basic rule of thumb with page titles: get your main keyword in at or very close to the beginning. Sometimes when I'm targeting a longtail, that'll be the entire title.

    Here's another tip that seems to help: include words like How To, Tips, Blueprint, and Guide. I've found that these often increase traffic even when the site hasn't moved up in the search engine rankings. It's just that more people are clicking through to my site after adding those words to the title.
