 * youre talking apples and oranges using mentioning those three in the same context.
 * meta tags are not ‘tags’.
    titles are not ‘tags’.
 * the meta tag plugins are used to populate the keyword and description values 
   in your header.
 * the SEO title tag probably does something similar and putzes around with the 
   titles of your permalink pages as well.
 * simple tagging, I believe is similar to jeromes tags, or ultimate tag warrior,
   which dont affect any of the above.
 * without knowing what **you** mean by tagging its hard to recommend anything.

 * My goal is to improve visibility, that’s all. If one of them does this job, then
   ok for me. But think of this: my question just reflects the confusion that exists
   about these plugins, what exactly they do and what the difference is between 
   them. Everybody talks about title tags but nobody shows what that really means.
 * After my research on the net for two days I still don’t know how they overlap
   or complement each other. I know that in WP2.2.1 by default one disposes of a
   comma separated list of tags to fill in. SEO title tags seems to add a second
   title tag box and offers a million options to configure nobody cares about. Simple
   plugin offers another zillion options. No wonder I pose this question. Only the
   meta tag plugin is an “install and go” approach which I like !

 * _Everybody talks about title tags but nobody shows what that really means._
 * `<title></title>`
 * thats plain old html, and theyre included on every wordpress page, by default.
   You could have googled `title tag` to have discovered that.

 * If everyone used google forums like this would be dead.
 * Title tags are good for improving your visabilty in search engines. It is important
   to have a unique and appropriate title tag for each page.From what I can see 
   WordPress automatically puts your blog name and your post title into the title
   tags so as long as you give every page a unique name then every title will be
   unique. Is there any real need for the Title Plug In ???
 * As for meta tags and meta description. Not much use for the major search engine
   which is google. So I wouldn’t loose slepp other using these or not. Google has
   a knack of making a meta description from appropriate sentences on the page.
 * A tagging system. I’m no expert but these tags do seem to show in google. I would
   use a tagging system.
 * What do other users think ???

 * I am still not following. Ok, technically a title tag is just an HTML tag, no
   problem with that.
 * But to take it step by step, what does the standard comma separated tag-box under
   the WP2.2.1-editor do ? Does this improve visibility ? It’s not a title tag-box
   apparently, since if I enable the SEO title tags plugin, the latter adds a box
   saying “title tag (optional)” above the previous one. So what does this one do
   for improving visibility on top of the previous one ?

 * tagging, as you are describing it is this, jolato:
 * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Web_2.0_Map.svg](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Web_2.0_Map.svg)
 * like flickr tags, or for instance, this:
