Page titles and descriptions

A website has several wigets to show
Each wiget with its own page
The wigets mostly just vary in size
How would you suggest titles be done?
Example:
Wiget 1ft
Wiget 2ft
Wiget 3 ft
an so on........ Would this trigger a duplicate content issue given “Wiget” leads in the page title?

Hi Bryce,
Thanks for the input. I was thinking that direction. It nice to have some affirmation from time to time.
Cheers!

In that case, I would probably focus my efforts on a parent page. The keywords you are probably targeting won't have a lot of competition, and a high ranking top level landing page will also contribute to the rankings of lower level pages.
In addition, the concept of "Evergreen" comes to mind. When you cycle through model numbers or inventory, you would lose the value you've built into the lower level pages. If, instead, you focus on your top level "Evergreen" pages, you can update those pages without losing rankings.

Hi Matt thanks for the response. The link below will help better explain my situation. Each truck has a difference page....... How would you look at page titles and descriptions?

Hi Bryce,
Here is a link..... which may help to clarify my situation. I am just trying to deal with individual landing pages for each truck

There is probably an "it depends" here. For example clothes and many other items come in different sizes and usually they are all listed on one page without any detriment to SEO. My opinion is the single page would allow that single page to rank higher than many different pages. I can only imagine the confusion that would occur in search engine result lists if you had a page for each size of a particular shoe model being sold.
I think the rule would be is the size more important than what the item is. For example with shoes it is usually the shoe model that is most important (not the size) so one page with the size as key content on that page. But there are times where users are more likely to search for the size. Maybe it is wall mount ovens where the attributes of width and single and double are more important than the actual model then you might want to have separate pages for each size of the model.
You might also consider having a single page for a widget with the different options and then landing pages that would aggregate all the different widgets of a particular size and then link to the corresponding product detail page.
-
As long as they are actually different widgets, I think that would be fine. If you had 10 pages for widget 1 using different URL's, then I would start to rethink your strategy.

Hiding elements of the page
Hi, Does hiding elements of the page have a negative effect on SEO? The reason I ask is I am using a Wordpress theme however in options if I disable a certain element of the theme that is printed on the page it simply hides it from the user using CSS but it still exists in the code. Could the search engine see this as bad? E.g. like you are trying to keyword stuff by hiding keywords in the page? Thanks.

Duplicate Page Title
I have a dating site, it's got a lot of duplicate page titles, most of them are the language buttons for the users to view the site in there language. but I think it's obvious that the buttons don't have anything to do with it. I'm thinking that page tittle is basically a description of what the site is. like for an example "online-dating" is this it? please tell me in terms for a dummy, how to fix it.

Title and Heading Tags
Firstly I would like to comment on how helpful this site is. I haven't posted much before but have been reading tonnes of answers for many months now and have been finding it really useful. I used the SEOmoz scanner and the main problem highlighted was duplicate content so I started to add 'customer product reviews' I had received and unique 'further information' to each page (hopefully this was the right thing to do to solve duplicate content! : ) ) Then I looked at heading and title tags. Currently I set title tags for each product page to be "Brand Name- Product Name" but after doing some research we are thinking of putting Keyword Description of Product | Product Name | Brand Name (around 60 characters long). So is this the advised thing to do and create unique titles that are relevant to each specific product page for over 200 pages we have? In addition, any advice on setting optimum tags would be great. We keep reading varying tips online. I gather ideally h1 needs to be a shorter keyword rich version of the title tag? Many Thanks
