## Definition

A title tag is an HTML element specifying the title of a web page — displayed in browser tabs, search engine results, and used by AI systems as a primary content signal for understanding what a page is about.

## Why It Matters for AI Search

Title tags are among the first signals AI crawlers process. A title tag that clearly states the page's entity, topic, and context — rather than a clever but ambiguous marketing headline — gives AI systems an immediate, unambiguous content declaration. For glossary entries, service pages, and entity-defining pages, title tags should be direct and entity-explicit: "AI SEO Agency Hawaii | Plate Lunch Collective" rather than "We Help Brands Get Found."
