How to Improve Your Blog Search Engine Optimization By Changing Your Post Title Before Blog, Blogger Name

how to improve search engine optimization (SEO) of your Blogger blog (Blogspot blog) by optimizing your post title tags for search engines like Google and Yahoo. How to improve search engine results by optimizing post title tags.

By default your Blogger blog (Blogspot blog) does not have search engine optimised title tags. This puts your blog at a disadvantage compared to other blogs that have inbuilt SEO or enhanced SEO modules as these sites are likely to be placed more highly in search engine results.

The title tags of your blog are ordered by blog name first followed by the title of the post. This is not ideal for popular search engines like Google and Yahoo which give more importance to the first words of a title. By way of example take a look at how the title tags of this blog were viewed in a browser before any SEO. Note the order of the tags: Blog Name | Post Name.

When this site was first indexed by Google this is the search engine results this site received. Note how the blog name is first in all the results.

    How to Make Your Blogger / Blog Load Faster Than 123

    The speed at which your blog loads is very critical to attracting and retaining more readers to your blog. If your blog takes a long time to load, many readers may leave your blog before they have the chance to read it.


    The major factors that affect your blog load speed include:

    • The number and nature of Images and other multi-media
    • Third Party JavaScript and Links
    • Number of Posts displayed on the Main page

    Let's take a look at the above factors and few tips and tricks that will help you optimize your blog load time.

    Images and other multimedia are important to beautifying and attracting users to your blog. However, the more images, videos and other multi-media you have on your blog the longer it takes to load. It becomes necessary to optimize the load speed of your images and other media.
    Decrease the size of your images or use thumbnails that link to the full-size image.
    Consider uploading images to Picasa Web Albums via the Blogger post editor if you use third party images.Don't link to external image URLs!

    For optimal blog load speed, we recommend using Google/Blogger widgets, JavaScript and links.
    However, I understand that sometimes you will need to use third party JavaScript and links. If you those, put them at the bottom of the sidebar. Your blog will load much faster that way.

    Finally, your blog's load time can be affected by the number of posts you display on your main page. 10 or even fewer posts per page is recommended. You can easily edit the number of posts displayed of the main page from the Settings > Formatting tab. You can then select the number of posts you want to display on the main page as shown in the image below.

    How to Easy Hide or Remove Blogger / Blogspot Top Navigation Bar

    If you are using any default template of Blogger, I'm pretty sure you must have seen a navigation bar at the top of your blog. The Blogger NavBar contains Search Blog textbox, Follow link, Next Blog link to visit another blog randomly, links to create a blog or sign in to Blogger etc.
    Below is the preview of Blogger navigation bars.




    What do you think about it? Well, I think it makes your blog look too basic and unprofessional? If we share the same thoughts and you want to hide or get rid of it. Follow these steps.

    To Remove or hide the Blogger Navbar, you just have to insert one line of code into your blog's HTML. It's a very easy CSS hack. The trick will not interfere or mess up with your custom layouts and it's pretty safe and easy to implement.

    1. Go to Dashboard > Template > Edit HTML
    2. Check the box of Expand Widget Template.
    3. Ensure you backup your template (Download Your Template)
    4. Find the following code by pressing Ctrl + f

    ]]>

    Before the line, add in the following line of code:

    #navbar { display: none; }

    5. Save your template.

    View it. Viola and it's gone!

    How to Add Animated Tag Cloud in your Blog / Blogger / Blogspot

    Once you have added the animated tag cloud, you will see an additional widget (labels widget) in the Layout -> Page Elements page. So click on the "Edit" link of this widget.


    Then in front of "Show" option mark the radio button "Selected Labels", now click on the small "edit" link and un-mark the labels which you want to remove from the tag cloud, and finally save it.


    If you want to

    Remove Label - Add New Label - Edit Label in Blogger / Blogspot

    how you can edit, add or delete labels in Blogger.
    Log in to Blogger, in the Posting section, click on Edit Posts.

    See the highlighted regions in the image above.
    As soon as you click on Edit posts, you will see all posts written by you (select posts per page as 300 in the right corner of the page).

    1. Now to delete any label, click on "Select All". Then in the drop down menu "Labels action", under "Remove label" option you will see the list of all labels, click on the one, you want to remove for ever.

    2. To add a label, select all the posts, you want to add the label. Then in the drop down menu "Labels action", under "Apply label" option click on New label.... Finally enter the name of the new label.

    3. And in case you want to edit a label, unfortunately there's no direct option given by Blogger.
    So do this, firstly in the list of labels column, present at the left side of the page, click on the label you want to edit. Now only those posts are displayed which have this label. Now add a temporary label to these posts. Then delete the label, you want to edit. Now click on the temporary label in the labels list. Now add the new label. Then finally delete the temporary label.

    How to Easy Delete or Rename Blogger Labels

    You've got blogger labels you don't need anymore.You want to delete or rename them?
    Logon to www.blogger.com. On the dashboard, click Edit Posts.


    On the Edit Posts screen, click Select: All (very important). Then drop down the Label Actions menu, scroll down and you'll find a Remove Label heading with a list of all your labels appearing under it.To delete one, click on it! You'll have to remove each label one after the other.I don't think there's a one-click solution to delete all labels at a time.

    I don't also think there's a one-click solution to rename/edit a label name.Simply delete/remove the label and create another with a new name.

    To create a new label, just drop down the Label Actions menu, scroll down and you'll find the New Label
    heading, click on it and a dialog box prompts you to enter your new label name.Enter a name and click Ok. That's it.It's that easy!
