Title tags for Blogger

Does anyone know how get Blogger to display the different titles of each post on the header instead of the same title of the blog? Cos when I Google for my blog, it shows all the same blog title for every post, which I think is not optimised for search purposes.

Thanks very much for any advice.

 

This should work on the classic template

<MainPage>
<title><$BlogPageTitle$></title>
</MainPage>

<ArchivePage>
<title>Archive of <$BlogPageTitle$></title>
</ArchivePage>
<ItemPage>
<BlogItemTitle><title><$BlogItemTitle$> : Your Blog</title></BlogItemTitle></ItemPage>

 

thanks mate

 

I wanted to know this as well but where do I put it in the html and do I substitute anything into this code for my site?

 

You should get the all in one seo plugin for word press - Sorry I dont have the link here, but it's easy to find just do a search

You can use this plugin to change page titles and many other things that will help with your SEO

 

Paste the code on you html but take out the <br>

<br /><mainpage><title><$BlogTitle$></title></mainpage><br /><ArchivePage><title><$BlogPageTitle$> Archive</title></ArchivePage><br /><itempage><title><blogger><$BlogItemTitle$></blogger> - <$BlogTitle$></title></itempage><br /><MainPage><meta name=”description” content=”<$BlogTitle$> of <$BlogDescription$>” /></MainPage><br /><ArchivePage><meta name=”description” content=”<$BlogPageTitle$> Archive, <$BlogDescription$>” /></ArchivePage><br /><ItemPage><meta name=”description” content=”<Blogger><$BlogItemTitle$></Blogger> - <$BlogTitle$>” /></ItemPage><br /><meta name=”keywords” content=”<ItemPage> <Blogger><$BlogItemTitle$></Blogger>,</ItemPage> <ArchivePage><Blogger><$BlogItemTitle$>, </Blogger></ArchivePage><$BlogTitle$>” /><br />

 

great tip for use different titles, but if you have same title for your all post, does it keywods work better this way?

Yes you need unique title and meta tags for all the pages for search engines to index your site properly

 

Here is one post that might be a good reference -
http://www.techlifeweb.com/2006/07/changing-way-blogger-presents-title.html

 

I am using this code:

"<b:if cond=’data:blog.pageType == “item”‘>
<b:section id=’swaptitle’>
<b:widget id=’Blog2′ locked=’false’ title=’Blog Posts’ type=’Blog’>
<b:includable id=’nextprev’/>
<b:includable id=’backlinks’ var=’post’/>
<b:includable id=’post’ var=’post’>
<title>
<dataost.title/> - <data:blog.title/>
</title>
</b:includable>
<b:includable id=’commentDeleteIcon’ var=’comment’/>
<b:includable id=’status-message’/>
<b:includable id=’feedLinks’/>
<b:includable id=’backlinkDeleteIcon’ var=’backlink’/>
<b:includable id=’feedLinksBody’ var=’links’/>
<b:includable id=’postQuickEdit’ var=’post’/>
<b:includable id=’comments’ var=’post’/>
<b:includable id=’main’ var=’top’>
<b:loop values=’dataosts’ var=’post’>
<b:include data=’post’ name=’post’/>
</b:loop>
</b:includable>
</b:widget>
</b:section>
<b:else/>
<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
</b:if>"


It works but for some reason SEO meta tag analyzer programs aren't picking up the new title. Before I used this code they would recognize the title of my individual posts, but now when I swap it for the article name and the blog name on the end, they don't recognize the title and say I am missing it.

Here is an example of what I'm talking about. This isn't my website by the way but they have their title setup the same.

Go to http://millionnzdollars.blogspot.com/2007/04/blogspot-title-tags-how-to-remove-blog.html

The name of their blog is "make money fast" they have the post name first in the header, and then the blog name. Which is good.

BUT, When you use a tool like http://www.submitexpress.com/analyzer/ and put that website in. You see using that swap trick appears to have removed the title from the blog from a seo standpoint. Despite the title clearly being there.


Does anyone know of a way to solve this problem and to have the title show up for seo analyzers.

Thanks,

mike

 

Science, have you figured out if your pages are indexed porperly by now? I want to implement the same title swap you have done, but i wanna know if this has any negative effects in the SE / SERP's.

thanks
