If you search your website links in search engines then you will find that your blog title appears first followed by blog post title along with with other blogs. Now imagine a situation where you want to show only the blog post title and not blog title? In WordPress we can change title positions via All in One SEO settings very easily. But a lot of bloggers experience the issue while implementing in Blogger/Blogspot blogs. It requires a little bit of HTML code modification. Here, I will explain the way how to do that.
You can choose any of the 2 options :
- Blog Post Title + Blog Title
- Only Blog Post Title
Here we go with step by step process: (Assuming that you are using new blogger interface)
1. Login to Blogger account.
2. In Dashboard select the blog and click on the Template button.
3. Click on Edit HTML. Proceed to edit.
5. If you want to show only Blog Post Title then replace it with following code:<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "item"'>
<title><data:blog.pageName/> | <data:blog.title/></title>
<b:else/>
<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
</b:if>
For Blog Post Title followed by Blog Title option, replace the same tag with following code:
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "item"'>
<title><data:blog.pageName/> | <data:blog.title/></title>
<b:else/>
<title><data:blog.pageTitle/> | <data:blog.title/></title>
</b:if>
That's all. Isn't that simple? You can search your posts picking randomly from your blog in search engines. There you will find that your post title is appearing before your blog title.
