Page title too long for Bing Search Engine Guideline

Description

title element is too long for Bing. Bing recommends using titles up to 65 characters long.

Help

The major search engines all have different limits for title length, and these limits have changed over time. Avoid title lengths close to the limits to prevent problems when the limits change again, and note that the W3C recommends a maximum length of 64 characters.
