Meta Title Keywords and Company name
-
Currently our meta title says "Network Security Audit | Pivot Point Security" which is pretty broad considering how many services we offer. In trying to restructure our keywords, marketing and SEO focus, I came up with a new title. The problem I have is figuring out which keywords to use in the title, and with a company name with 3 words - I am running out of room.
The new title idea is "Information Security Assessments - Penetration Testing | Pivot Point Security"
So my questions are the following. Do I need to put the company name? Should I choose different keywords? I'm sort of at a stand still trying to figure out the best possible title since meta keywords or description won't really help ranking.

We do have different titled on each page, which also rank fairly well for each subject. We plan on improving those after our focus on the homepage. Thank you for your reply!

As mentioned below aim for your main keyphrase at the start of the title where ranking for this keyphrase is your key objective.
Not mentioned is that you should aim to have a unique title on each page and you can focus on and target a different keyphrase per page. Therefore your longer title suggested above could possible be split up and the keywords covered by two separate pages as long as you have separate content for each of them.
Hope this helps.

Thank you for your feedback

If you are ranking #1 for your company name already and your domain is your company name then i think you might be okay to remove it from the title. You could possibly get away with not even putting it in H1 or h2 or if you are weary of doing that then just combine some keywords with your H1 and h2 and company name. You could also use lower headings tags for your company name and I think you would be fine.

Our domain name is our company name and we do rank #1 for it. The issue is we don't rank well for our services (at least not all of them)
So you think removing the company name is ok as long as we use H1 and H2 on the homepage?

I would put your most profitable keywords in the Title, and use meta description and on page (h1, h2, etc) elements to rank for your company name. Also, remember that your domain name (not sure what your is) will also have a good ranking factor if it is your company name.

Bing result title is displaying a competitors name
When searching "Cambridge Savings Bank" which is the specific name of a bank in Bing the search results return with them as Number one with the correct URL. The issue is Bing has titled the search result "East Cambridge Savings Bank" (which is another entity all together) and still has the correct www.cambridgesavings.com URL. So basically Bing is putting another corporation's name on our website. This issue only is in Bing. Any idea how to correct this? 2.png 1.png

Keyword density question.
For instance, if the keyword I'm targeting on a specific page is "New Orleans", the Keyword is everywhere it's supposed to be, title, meta, content, internal links, etc, .... So when I check my most relative key words with different tools, it always breaks the word up like: new - 12 times 2.3% orleans - 12 times 2.3% Should I try to fix this? or is this normal? and does google view this as 1 keyword when evaluating my site?

Having both <title>and <meta name="title"...> on a web page?</title>
Hi All, Client of mine using reversed Meta Tags format in their website and Honestly i never saw such Meta Tags formats. In my opinion having 2 Title tags and wrong reversed description tag is not correct and the needs to be removed, and other tags need to be changed,too But they said that it probably doesn't make a difference because weird thing is Search Engines are apparently able to index them ,So they don't think it affects search engine results and won't remove it just based on opinion. So should i persist in correcting them or just hope for the best and ignore it?!?!?! Thanks!

Keywords in Vanity URL
If I set up a vanity URL that just 301's to the main site, do the search engines look at the keywords in the vanity URL when determing how to rank the site. For example, if I set up a vanity URL of www.coolnewtechgear.com, and redirect it to www.company.com/products/, would the search engines view the keywords of cool, new, tech, and gear and associate that with the page it's getting redirected to? Or does it ignore the vanity URL and only look at the content of the page itself?
