Change the Title Tags in Blogger for More Search Engine Traffic
By default Blogger displays the blog title first, followed by the name of the post. As you might notice this is not good when it comes to SEO. It's important for the name of the post to come before the name of your blog, especially when it comes to google search results. Learn how to make your post title show up first so that you can reel in more traffic from the search engines.
Why Change the Titles?
It's quite important to have the Post Title + Blog Title arranged accordingly because this is how you would want your blog to be displayed on google's search results. This way more people will click on your link when searching google because the post title is more relevant than your post name.Example Google Search Results:
You are most likely to click on the bottom image when searching google for the keywords "image reflection generator". The reason being is that your mind reads text from left to right. So it makes sense to have the more important title on the left.


How to Change the Titles:
- Go to Layout>edit HTML in your Blogger dashboard.
- Search for this tag: <title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
- Replace this tag with the following code:
- Save your template and you should see the results in your web browser as depicted in the images below.
- It may take a few days for the changes to show up on the google search results. I guarantee you that you will start receiving more traffic from google once you are re-indexed!
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "index"'> <title><data:blog.title/></title> <b:else/> <title><data:blog.pageName/> | <data:blog.title/></title> </b:if>

Thanks for the tip, it makes sense, but I can't get it to work. Can you help me? I am really new to this stuff.
When I go to dashboard and layout, I click on Edit HTML/Javascript.
A page comes up with Title, followed by a blank field. Then there a large field called "content" and it seems to have just some script for statcounter.
Where do I put the script you provided? Also, should my title field be blank?
Thanks for any help.

I tried this and for some reason, its making it so all my posts are doubled up. If you go to my home page (http://smarkoutmoment.blogspot.com) it seems fine, but if you click on the links to each particular blog post, you'll see that it does them twice, a duplicate right after the article ends.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

The Title Tag is the most important part of a Web page to optimize. Before a search engine spider even looks at your website it first analyzes your title tags. This means that if you do not have a unique title tag for each page than it is very likely that page could be considered duplicate content and not be indexed by each search engine. There are many factors that need to be considered when optimising your title tags.
* The TITLE tag should be placed within the tag.
* Should contain the most important keyword that appears on the Web page.
* The characters should be limited to 40-70 including spaces between.
* The most relevant keyword phrase should be placed at the beginning of the text.
* It should read well and contain a marketing message.

http://ontime-news.blogpspot.com
Thanks so much for the help but the only thing I would add to this for newbies like myself that in order to see the changes you illustrated in the images under point 5., you have to click on your post. If you simply go to the main page of your blog then it just shows your only your blogs title at the top of the page. Click your post title and it shows the post title first then blog title.
awesome thanks for the tip, will be sure to update you and let you know how it goes.
