It really depends on the search engine and how often your site is being visited by search engine spiders.

It is something I am trying to implement at the minute and your advice here has been well recieved. Here is hoping the difference is seen shortly. What length of time does it take before these improvement effect SERP?

It is possible to change content and titles at any time to further optimise for your keywords. If you have a page that is doing well for a keyword but not in the top 10 then a little tweaking can get it on the first page.

Is it possible/advisable to optimize and change existing page titles in blog posts and re-post them again, even though they had already been published and indexed? (Sorry, I have no idea about that.)

Yes it draws attention of masses if the title is catchy. Good title also increases chances of getting more hits on social networks like digg.

I can say with full confidence that titles are extremely important as Tony says. Also, descriptions. I recently wanted to up my ranking and try my hand at some proper SEO, so I tested and optmised for one specific key phrase, the title was a major part and after around a week and a half I was 1st in google for the selected search term from being 100+ previously, and that’s with a pagerank of only 1 and very few of what google sees as “backlinks”.

I recently noticed that on one of my sites that the sites ranking higher are having their title tags optimized while mine weren’t – so made a few changes! Lets see the SERP’s in a few days!
