Hello writers,

I'm having trouble with a title for one of my pages.

I am trying to get people to buy my let's say artwork

Should I write the title as "Buy customized art by joe schmo"

Or should I write "Decoarte your home with customizeld art by joe schmo?

Thank you

also, does the title and the first header have to match?

I'd take it a step further and say "Beautify your home with the customized art of Joe Schmo." "Beautify" is a benefit to the customer, and you always want to make headlines benefit-oriented.

Oh, that makes sense, also does the title and the header have to match?

One more thing, if I made the header:

Beautify your home with artwork by Joe Schmo , should the title of the page be the same thing?

I don't see any reason that a page header and the HTML page title would have to match.

They are both important places for key words for SEO, as well as important for human readers, but that does not mean they should be the same.

In fact, if the human reader bothers to look at the page title, they might wonder why they were exactly the same and might think the page was generated automatically, rather than being carefully written - seems to me.
