For an ideal website, the length for Title Tag should be NO more than 64 characters!
Is it practically true? Do the successful ecommerce sites follow this?!
I notice otherwise, in many cases……!!!
A site that belongs to one of the leading website designers, comes up within the top 5 on the first page of google, has even more than 300 characters in its title tags.

This is true for many sites that rank.
You should have a look at the links he has pointing to the page.
Check the number of links
the anchor text of the links (do they use the keyword the page appears for in google)
The main thing in ranking normal and ecommerce websites are the amount of links point to the site page and the most important part is the anchor text used for the link.
I hope this answers your question and points you in the right direction.

Google places some restrictions for every aspect of SEO. In that, title tags limit should be 60 characters only. We put more than that also. But is of no use.
You told that one site's title is 300 chars and is in first page. Check that site's keywords, first 3 or 4 keywords only will come first. Others wont come.

Five Google Ranking Tips
Most Google ranking tips deal with getting incoming links (or backlinks as they are also referred to) to your website. And for good reason. The more quality incoming links (determined by the rank of the site that the link originates from and the relevance of the keyword) you have, the higher your Google Page Rank will be and the more visible you will be to your prospects and/or customers. Here are some tricks to build your incoming links.
Submit your site to search engine directories. some directories charge a fee but many of them are free. If you're on a tight budget, stick to the free ones. These can get you some free links back to your website. Sign up with as many as you can. The more links you have into your site, the better your page rank.
This is one of the most overlooked but best of Google ranking tips. Join forums that are relevant to your industry. When you participate in forums and include the link to your website in your signature, you will get links back to your website. This is a very effective way to establish your reputation in your industry and raise your page rank at the same time.
Create an ezine (or newsletter). Taking the time to create a newsletter that you can send out to subscribers is definitely worth it. This keeps your visitors up to date with what you are doing and brings them back to visit your website on a consistent basis. You can also submit your ezine to an ezine directory which will link back to your website and give you more free incoming links.
Take advantage of article marketing. If you can create (or hire someone to do it for you) articles that pertain to your business, with your website information at the bottom, and submit them to article directories, you will get more traffic and links.
Ask for links from other related sites' webmasters. This is a rather "old-school" tactic but is still effective, albeit frustrating and time-consuming. Find sites that are related to your industry and write to their webmasters requesting that they link back to you. Some will not answer you. Some will say "no". Some will ask you to link to them as well. And others will just link to you.
You have higher chances of getting the results you want with this if your site contains valuable information. While your ultimate goal is to have high-rank sites linking to yours, you can start out with any rank (as long as the content is valuable and relevant to what you have to offer). As you bring in more links, your rank will go up as well and you will be able to attract the higher ranking sites.
Hopefully these five Google ranking tips will help you achieve the ranking and traffic you're aiming for.

It is the proper length which is actually read by google for titals. The text after this doesn't count by google. So this has to be optimized.

i agree to all answer of you and i also used 65 characters in title tag but i have analyzed in a website that have more than 65 characters in meta tittle and when we search on a particular keyword the google search engine taking near 70 characters. its ture.
we can take more than 65 char in meta title. if searching keyword is used after 65 char and its not in starting 65 then search engine take after 65. i already saw more than 65 ..

I thing 63 character with spaces google will count and after that character will not be cached by google. Now you are saying about ranking. I thing ranking matter is not only based on on pages, off page seo is also matter for ranking, just like link building, directory submission, book marking and show many thing which help to improve your ranking as well as alexa ranking.

Yes and remember that meta descriptions and tags don't really effect search rankings. They are mainly good for clicks. Also using keywords in your meta data really just lets your competition know what target keywords you are after.

You have larger likelihood of getting the side effects you want with this if your internet site contains valued information. While your final reason is to have good-point web-sites linking to yours, you can start with any title
