SEO Product Titles — Rules & Examples
Guidelines for titles that convert and stay compliant with marketplace rules.
Core Rules
Compliance Requirements
- ❌ Don't mention industries where the grade isn't used (e.g., food)
- ❌ Avoid words like "disinfection," "organic matter," or anything implying biocidal use (Amazon compliance)
- ❌ Don't call N-Amyl Acetate a flavor compound
- ❌ Don't add purity unless it's in the product name already
- ❌ Don't separate the solution % from the material name
Best Practices
- ✅ Use "Food Grade" for D-Limonene instead of "USP"
- ✅ Choose 3–4 popular applications that fit the material
- ✅ Use SEO-friendly, general applications
- ✅ Keep solution % attached to material name
Title Structure
Material – Key Descriptor – 3–4 Popular Applications
Example Formula
"Industrial Talc Powder – Gray Colored – For Plastics, Ceramics, Paints, Rubber, and Construction Use"
Real Examples
Good Examples ✅
Acetic Acid 100% / Vinegar 100% — For Descaling, Cleaning, Surface Prep, and pH Adjustment
D-Limonene Food Grade — For Degreasing, Surface Prep, Adhesive Removal, and Industrial Cleaning
Industrial Talc Powder – Gray Colored – For Plastics, Ceramics, Paints, Rubber, and Construction Use
What to Avoid ❌
- "Acetic Acid for Disinfection" (biocidal claim)
- "D-Limonene USP Grade" (wrong descriptor)
- "99.9% Pure Sodium Hydroxide" (unnecessary purity)
- "Vinegar 100% / Acetic Acid" (solution % separated)
Choosing Applications
Pick 3–4 applications that are:
- General — not industry-specific unless that's the exact grade
- SEO-friendly — commonly searched terms
- Compliance-safe — avoid medical/biocidal claims
- Accurate — actually match the product's use case
Common Application Categories
- Cleaning & Degreasing — surface prep, adhesive removal
- Manufacturing — plastics, ceramics, paints, rubber
- Chemical Processing — pH adjustment, neutralization
- Construction — concrete, coatings, sealants
- Industrial Use — general catch-all when appropriate
