Missing Titles

Indexable pages with a blank or missing HTML title tags.

Priority: Critical

Impact: Negative

What issues it may cause

The page title is prominently displayed within search engine results pages and pages without a title may rank less effectively, or the search engines will generate a title tag which may be sub-optimal for a good click-through-rate.

How do you fix it

The pages should be reviewed, and unique title tags created which target the search queries the page is optimized for.

What is the positive impact

If the titles are optimized for the search terms you are targeting, they may see higher click-through-rates resulting in more traffic and conversions.
