Theoretically there is no limit to how long a title can be. However both search engines and browsers truncate long titles to make their display consistent. W3C state that the length of the title tag should, ideally, be 64 characters including spaces, or less.
- Google truncates at 66 characters or the last complete full word.
- Yahoo truncates at 129 characters.

If I’m trying to target the UK market should I buy a .co.uk or a .com domain? The simple answer is that, all things being equal, it doesn’t really seem to matter, despite what you may hear or read!
A .com website that is correctly optimised will still achieve good listings in google.co.uk. If you have a .co.uk and your site isn’t optimised at all, the chances are you won’t have any listings in google.co.uk.
