On each part of my site as it branches off into sections the title would read "Sitename :: Section" then split into "Sitename :: Section :: Subsection" then eventually to "Sitename :: Section :: Subsection :: Subsubsection". Would I be penalized for having may words repeat themselves? Also what appears in the title also appears as text on the page for easy navigation to previous sections. My site name would be on all tho.

Bob,

IMO you would be better off with a breadcrumb trail on your web page telling users their location. Use the title as a real TITLE i.e. descriptive of the page itself (with keywords etc) your company name and other info is best placed on the page itself.
