Keep page titles unique

Duplicate titles prevent Google from determining which page is the authoritative result for a given query, splitting ranking signals and reducing total organic visibility.

Quick Reference

• Every page must have a <title> tag with content unique across the entire site
• Duplicate titles cause search engines to arbitrarily choose which page to show for a query
• Use page-specific keywords in the title: [Page Topic] | [Brand] pattern
• Google rewrites titles that are too generic, too long (>60 chars), or keyword-stuffed

Check

Crawl all pages and extract <title> tag content. Group pages by identical title text and flag duplicates. Also flag pages with no title, empty titles, or titles matching the CMS default (e.g., 'Home', 'Page', 'Untitled').

Fix

Give each page a descriptive, unique title incorporating the page's primary keyword: [Specific Topic] – [Site Name]. For blog posts: use the post title. For products: use product name + key differentiator. For category pages: use the category name + context.
