Improving Blog Placement Optimizing Title

In one of my previous publications, I have presented a way to swap parts of the blog post title the way that the post name will go before the blog name, as it is setup by default in the Blogger templates. There are multiple advantages of this simple transformation, both from aesthetical and Search Engines Optimization point of views. Your posts will be less competitive in respect to each other for a descent space on the search page for the particular search items. It is always good to have your main keywords (introduced in your Post title) of a specific blog post at the start rather than placing your blog title at the start. The situation improvement is even more significant, if the blog post title is very long. The method offered was tested, and its works on my Blogger blog posts.

This time, I want to present one more way to reach the same, or almost the same outcome (the only difference is a separation sign between blog post title and blog title). However, there is always good to have a choice. This time, credit goes to BloggerTricks blog.

Let’s make the process more visual.

How to change:

As usual, Sign in to Blogger » Layout » Edit html and find this line in the current blog template:
<title><data:blog.title/></title>

Now, replace that line with the following code:

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

Save the Changes.
The method has been also tested on this blog, and it worked for me.
