Google particularly recommends not to over stuff titles with keywords,crawlers consider this as spam.Best practice is to use not more than two keywords.Even using commas(,) in title is considered as keyword stuffing by the crawlers.So avoid putting commas and over stuffing. 

4.Descriptive and Brief :

A title is always must be brief but descriptive and reasonably short allow the users quickly navigate to them.It even helps search engines to quickly show them in top search results.The more information you include,the better will be the search description,thus allowing the crawlers as well as users to quickly find your site.

6.Brand Name :
