Title and URL Search Engine Friendly for Blogger BlogSpot

By default, Blogger BlogSpot will take your title as follow:

Your blog name: Your blog title

This is not Search Engine Optimization (SEO) friendly. When people look at your title in search engine result pages, they see your blog title first. If your title is too long, they don’t see your post title since search engine will truncate it. As a result, they don’t click on your link. You lose your visitors. So, to make your title friendly, you have to modify your blog title.

1. Login to your account --> Design --> Edit HTML
2. Click on "Download Full Template" to backup your template.
3. Check "Expand Widget Templates"
4. Search for

<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>

5. Replace it as follow

<b:if cond='data:blog.url == data:blog.homepageUrl'>
  <title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
<b:else/>
  <title><data:blog.pageName/>: <data:blog.title/></title>
</b:if>

This code will make your blog title as follow

Your blogs post : Your blog title

Alternatively, you can do it manually to have your custom title, replace the above code as bellow. Remember to change all the red color in the following code appropriate:

  <b:if cond='data:blog.url == data:blog.homepageUrl'>
    <title>Your home page title</title> 
  <b:else/>
    <b:if cond='data:blog.url == "http://www.blogsmonetize.com/2010/11/get-listed-in-google-search-engine.html"'> 
     <title>The title for the above URL</title> 
    </b:if>
     <b:if cond='data:blog.url == "http://www.blogsmonetize.com/2010/11/backlink-on-copy-and-paste.html"'>
      <title>The title for the above URL</title> 
     </b:if> 
  </b:if>

Your site will be ranking better in the Search Engine Result Page when you do this.
