Add something between <title> and </title> in the header of your web page!

I did like this in my master page:
<head runat="server">
<title>Mytitle</title>
- no effect

Solution 3

In ASP.Net MVC set the Viewbag.Title.
E.g.

<title>@ViewBag.Title</title>
@{
     ViewBag.Title = "Page";
}

Solution 2

As you have used Master Page, the Solution #1 won't work.
You need to give the title on every content page.

See the very first line of your content page.
<![CDATA[<%@ Page Title= "About" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="" %>]]>

It's true that my solution won't work for master-page (as there is no title tag in content page), but there is no need to declare @Page Title on every page! If OP leaves @Page Title empty (as it is by default) the page will be displayed with master-page's title...

<%@ Master Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Site.master.cs" Inherits="WebApplication1.Site" %>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
<title>Master</title>

--- and ---

<%@ Page Title="" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Site.Master"

This case will display 'Master' as the title of the content page...(You can remove totally the Title attribute also)
