    blogger is pretty well setup for SEO. There may be a few tweeks you could do to improve it. Do a search for it. But I don't think you really need to do anything to it.

    You can SEO a blog like SEO on websites.. They have the same logic....

    Onpage optimization, no black hat technique, link building like blog directories submissions, forum sigs and more...

    use features link pingback and trackback in order to promote your blog. Other SEO activities are almost same with the normal seo process. You can submit your blog to blogs search engines.

    ^ i agree with djrishi... always ping your blog after you've added/updated contents to your blog... remember that SE loves fresh and updated blogs!

    I recently setup a couple satellite sites for a client, one being on blogger/blogspot. After 1 week, the blog was ranking #4 for the client's 2nd tier keyword.

    Blogger has a place for SEO, if you know how to utilize it and make it work for you. Out of the box, Blogger is pretty SEO friendly, with H1 tags in place and Titles being used. All you really need to do is get good incoming links and you'll start to rank for 2nd, 3rd or 4th tier keyword phrases your optimizing for.

    Blogger has messed up directory structures for posts, but is still good for SEO.

    Wordpress is more superior and the platform most serious bloggers use because of the wide availability of the SEO plugins.
