What is Word Stemming? •Google uses word stemming. Word stemming

allows all forms of the word - singular, plural, verb form as well as similar words to be returned for a given search query.

•So if someone types in "house plans", not only will pages that are optimized for that phrase be returned, but so will pages that contain all variations of that phrase, for example: "house plan", "house planning", "house planer".

Creating Titles – Best Practice

• Each page should have a unique title.

• Begin the title of your home page with your Primary Keyword Phrase, followed by your best Secondary Keyword Phrases.

• If you must include your company name, put it at the end of the title.

• Don't overdo it - don't repeat your keywords more than 1 time in the title

• Make sure the <title> tag is the first element in the <head> section of your page - this makes it easier to find by Google
