Apologies if this is a dupe. I tried searching, but didn't find anything specifically addressing this concern.

When creating a large(ish) site, page titles usually reference both the site name and the current page name. However, it seems there are two main conventions:

Bob's Awesome Site - Contact Page

and

Contact Page - Bob's Awesome Site

I've looked around, and pages usually use one of the two variants above. Is there any reason to use one over the other? SEO/readability/usability/etc?

I've thought about it, and have only come up with:

• Page first - Differentiates the tab when the browser is crowded with lots of tabs
• Site first - Immediately see the "parent" site, so to speak; more cohesive experience
