At the time of website creation you need to ensure the addition of certain Meta tags that the search engines look at but are not visible to the site’s visitor.  Including Meta tags, title tag or the title of the webpage is of at most importance.  Ensure that the title describes the corresponding webpage.  Say e.g. the title of my blog is Tips To Do Search Engine Optimization.  The title appears in the top of your browser (title bar).  Tip: do not put ‘Home Page’ as your title.  Many people do that blunder in their website’s main page.

Limit your title to 60 characters since some search engines will cut off the title at 60 characters.

Google offers a keyword tool to help you pick the best keywords for your site. The images in the site should also be properly optimized with correct values in the title, alt and source attributes.
