As you all know SEO is important to any blog – especially in the early stages.

If you want to get instant traffic then you have to write content that is SEO optimized for search engine traffic. Yet there is one SEO trick that is overlooked quite a lot by Blogger users which could boost their traffic; how they appear in the search results. And I’m not talking about where they appear, but how they appear. So, today tutorial is about how to do search engine optimization.

Below is a screenshot of my new blog in the Google search results next to MakeUseOf in the search results. Notice anything different between the two SEO-wise?

It’s in the titles. You can see that my blog’s title is NovelInThirtyDays. Now for some reason I can’t see many people Googling that anytime soon. However, look at the MUO title: “˜Cool Websites, Software and Internet Tips‘. Many more people will Google things like that, thus driving more traffic to the site.

So in short, my advice is to change how your blog’s title appears in the search results. One of the best ways to do this for a small to medium blog is to reverse the order in which the blog title and post title are displayed so that the post title comes first. This will SEO optimize every post.

Here’s how.

Step 1. Log in to your blogger.
Step 2. Select Blogger Dashboard.

Step 3. Then, Select Template.

Step 5. After it, select "Edit HTML".

Step 6. Using CTRL + F, find the following piece of HTML code:

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

In most templates it’s around 5-10 lines from the top. Replace that code with the following code:

<b:if cond=`data:blog.pageType == &quot;index&quot;’>
<title><data:blog.title/></title>
<b:else/>
<title><data:blog.pageName/> | <data:blog.title/></title>
</b:if>

However, the SEO optimized results will be noticeable immediately in the tab along the top of your browser.

This is a much more likely scenario than someone searching for the actual title of your blog.
