      I would like to know the value of preposition on title tag and the impact on search engine queries. As for example, I would like to know the difference between TOURS TO NEPAL and TOURS NEPAL keyword, how they had a impact on search engine queries.

        Hi,

        Its hard to actually quantify the impact that that kind of change makes.

        What we do know is that the closer your keywords are to the start of your wepage title, the more effective they are for your SEO. Also, if you are targetting the specific phrase 'Tours Nepal' then it would be more effective than 'Tours to Nepal'. However, if it is primarily the 'Nepals' keyword you want to rank best for then changing it to something like 'Nepal Tours' would be best.

        Hope this helps.

        Matt.

          I am afraid but I would like to know about the use of preposition in keywords.

          Here are some of my queries regarding my question?

          1: Can we use preposition on our title and keywords?

          2. What is the best practice of using preposition in title and keywords?

          3. Does the search engine discards the preposition used or counts as a set of keywords?

          Hope to hear from you soon.

          Thank you for your kind response so far.

          With Regards'

          • When I use the Google search console to discover keyword phrases being used to drive visitors to my site I see some keywords that have the city name repeated (ex: web design sarasota sarasota, fl). Why?
