It is good SEO practice to put the page title first in your title tags, and then your site name. Unfortunately, by default, Joomla places the site name first before the page title.
To change this, grab a copy of the file /includes/joomla.php
Around line number 507, replace this:
$this->_head['title'] = $title ? $GLOBALS['mosConfig_sitename'] . ' - '. $title : $GLOBALS['mosConfig_sitename'];
With this:
$this->_head['title'] = $title ? $title .' - '. $GLOBALS['mosConfig_sitename'] : $GLOBALS['mosConfig_sitename'];

Hi Chette, I just wanted to let you know that I did write the article and gave you kudos and link: http://www.joomlaviews.com/joomla-tutorials/how-to/changing-order-of-site-title-and-page-title-2008032983.html
Thanks for the tip – it is real sad that one needs to hack the source code to get such a basic thing to work.
I am writing an SEO article for Joomla and I will include this tip as well as a link back for the tip.
Thanks, fast and easy!
Thank you for sharing this information. I will use it for my blog and change the order of title.

Its great. But in joomla stable version, the path to be changed is in ‘\libraries\joomla\document\document.php’ in that we have a function called ‘setTitle($title)’. The title is actually rendered from there. So you can change title according to your wish
