# Product Title SEO FAQ: Questions People Actually Ask

**What is product title SEO, in plain terms?**
Shopping algorithms and on-site search both parse product titles as structured data, not prose — which is why the boring 'Brand + Product Type + Key Attribute' format consistently outperforms a clever, brand-voice-heavy title.

**How often should this be checked?**
Regularly, not just once. Omitting size, color, or model number from the title and burying it only in the description, where structured search can't weight it as heavily. Set a recurring reminder rather than trusting memory.

**What's the most common mistake here?**
Writing titles like ad headlines ('Amazing Comfort You'll Love!') instead of the structured, attribute-first format shopping search actually parses well.

**Does this actually affect rankings, or is it just best practice?**
It's rarely a single ranking factor on its own, but it affects whether search engines and users can do what you actually need them to do — which shows up in rankings indirectly, often more than any one direct factor would.

**What's the fastest way to check this on an existing site?**
Product Title Optimizer — paste your URL in and it does the check directly, no setup.
