What is a page title?

A page title is the text that appears in the search engine result pages (SERPs) and is usually the first thing users see.

Optimizing your page title for relevance and uniqueness, can maximize your website's visibility and drive more traffic.

What is SEO.ai's Title Competitor Score?

Title Competitor Score (TCS) is a measurement used in our platform SEO.ai to evaluate the effectiveness of a webpage's title in relation to its competition:

  • It is essential in the context of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) as the title is one of the most crucial factors in determining the ranking of a webpage in search engine results. 
  • A high TCS indicates that a web page's title is optimized in terms of relevance, uniqueness, and engagement and is more likely to attract clicks and drive traffic. 
  • TCS takes into account several factors, including the inclusion of the target keyword, keyword string density, placement of the target keyword in the initial part of the title, length of the title (45-65 characters).

By optimizing these factors, websites can improve their TCS and increase their chances of ranking higher in search results.
