The title element: * defines a title in the browser toolbar (at the top of the browser window EXCEPT in IE9) * provides a title for the page when it is added to favorites * displays a title for the page in search-engine results The <h1> to <h6> tags are used to define HTML headings. <h1> defines the most important heading. <h6> defines the least important heading. Heading tags are used by search engines to identify words which are more important than the rest of the page text. The theory is that headings will sum up the topic of the page, so they are counted as important keywords. So if your page is about say the Boone Family Genealogy, that would be both the title of the page and the h1 tag for that page. I would not use the domain name for the title of the page. Example: My domain name is family-genealogy-online.com BUT I would NOT want that as the title of my page. I would choose the title and the h1 tag for what the page is actually about - Little Family Genealogy or Bayless Family History by Virginia Bayless O'Connell As for branding the site, I use the same masthead on all of my pages which is the site name. http://www.family-genealogy-online.com/images/leaves-logo2.jpg pat
