You would like to add additional info to the <title></title> tags?
Yes
Do Carry this out by editing the home page code or is there a function within WP which deals with this?
You can edit the header.php file of your theme, incorporating the the_title function:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_title
looking at the reference, can I get a contextual example?
It’s still a bit confusing about how to apply the actual title words.
