How to Change Joomla! Site Titles
When you open a Web page in your Internet browser, you should see the website name and page title listed in the tab of your browser. For example, you may see "Sample Website - Contact Us" if you opened the contact page of a website. If you use Joomla! to manage your website and want to change how the website name and page titles appear when someone accesses your website, it takes little time to do so by editing your website settings.
