It is not necessary to start the title with target keywords however if there’s a keyword that you hunting for then it should be used at the beginning of the title.
How header tags are written by online marketing experts?
Generally; we can see that H1 is same as the title with an average length of 55 similar characters. Main keywords are always there in H1 tags. Hence, it is easy to understand the main keywords while analyzing the SEO.
These main keywords are actually written in large print and colour in the general style of the blog and it is located on visible parts of the screen.
