Your WordPress site's title is one of the most significant elements, and it's incredibly easy to alter. WordPress makes this exceedingly simple by automatically putting the title across the site.

The majority of themes will auto-populate your WordPress title in the header, menus, and home page of your website.

- Identify your keywords - If you are creating a website for your business, this may be as easy as putting your brand name. You should evaluate your offerings and do keyword research so that your firm ranks better in search engine results.

As previously said, your WordPress title is a basic but crucial element of your website. It will serve as the foundation of your search engine optimization approach and will be included in different places of your website. It is something that requires constant monitoring and optimization.
