March 27th, 2009 | 3 Comments | Posted in Blogger Tips, SEO by bharath

In the previous post about Blogger title tweak, I’ve mentioned about the other way of optimizing blog title structure,swapping blog title name with post title name.

As said earlier,default blogger.com blogs title structure is “Blog Title followed by post title” for individual posts,now let’s see how to change this structure to “Post title followed by blog title”  (swapping).

1.Go to Dashboard>>Select your Blog>>go to Layout Section>>Click Edit HTML tab

edit html in blogger layout

Find the little HTML section code shown by the red arrow in the following image your template HTML code

tweaking blogger title Where you’ll find the following title tag.

<title><data:blog.pagetitle/></title> [Note:You may also use CTR+F function in your browser to search this little code.]

3.Replace the above code with this one:

 <b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "item"'>
<title><data:blog.pageName/> | <data:blog.title/></title>
<b:else/>
<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
</b:if>

[note that this will still show your blog title at home page,only changes individual posts structre]

4.Save the Template and open any post from your blog and observe the title structure on the top of your browser it must now look like “blog post title | blog title

Like wise,Wordpress blogs titles also can be tweaked for better Search Engine Optimization,soon be posted here.

Please feel free to leave a comment here if you are having any troubles while doing this.
