Dear all webmasters..
I have a website selling different widget, say blue,red,white,green,black widget and so on..

Since Black Widget is my best selling product hence I put my title as "Black Widget" (in my index.htm) but later I
find out that Blue Widget is selling quite well too so I had change my title to "Blue Widget".

When I search google for "Blue Widget", my site came out in top 10, and if I search for "Black Widget"
, my site came out in top 10 too.. I guess this two instance of pages is indexed in google ( they are same url).

My question is should I write some code to the home page to make title rotating different
color at a fix interval and hope all get indexed into google.

Is this a spam to google? Is a common technique used by Webmaster?

Please guide.
Thanks.

Why not set the topic to "Black and Blue Widgets"?

Neibot,
I am selling more than 500 different colors of widget so I can't put all together.

In fact, I if I set the title to "Blue and Black Widget" and if I search on "blue widget", my url with at be at approx #3x if search for "black widget, my result will be at #1x...

For SEO purpose, my result best ranked when I set my keyword as the title.

FillDeCube,
I sell over 400 products myself and have a lefthand sidebar on some catalog pages that rotate popular products for the section. Not only has it helped to get an image in front of the consumer's eyes I haven't noticed any adverse affects from the SE's.
