Your title tags (if that's what you're referring to) should describe the content of each individual page. Also in the meta tags - you should also have your targeted keywords that you would like to come up for in the SERPs.

SERPs offer up information based on queries - say you're searching for 'Forums'

The no. 1 spot is reserved for the site with the most 'qualified data related to your search terms' - therefore, they usually have the most pages indexed in any of the 3 major SE's, have the most backlinks, a Yahoo directory listing (great for SERP placement in Google), DMOZ directory listing.....

The site most likely has hundreds/ thousands of backlinks (most of which they paid well for) pointing into them with the anchor text of 'Forums,' SERPs is a intense combination of actions - you just gotta find somebody that knows what they're talking about from experience with industry trends, and one that can execute the results you are looking for.

Good luck!

The title should reflect the whole content of the website. In terms of SEO, title tag is the most preferred one.

Title tag shall be a one sentence abstract of your page. Besides this, try to include the most important keyword of this page into the title tag and show at the start.

Yeah inlcude two or three search phrases that you are targeting on each page in a nice sentance that makes sense.
